User Reviews
I have the Size 10/43 low cut shoe version of these boots which I find ever so lightly long and loose for me but certainly a better fit than size 9.5. Another reviewer mentioned the boot is slightly smaller than the shoe version. The Amazon size chart says size 9.5 is the 43 in size which is different from the official La Sportival pictured size chart further down the page, where the pictured chart is the same as the size printed on my shoe that's Size 10 is 43 instead.I took a chance and order Size 10 for these boots and sure enough it came as size 10/43, the same as my shoes, not 10/43.5 as said in Amazon linked size chart. Upon wearing the boots with my usual pair of hiking socks, I do find these boots ever so slightly fitted more snuggly than the shoes, which is even better for me! I am not sure if these boots are actually smaller or just being newer than the shoes I have. Time will tell.Amazon, please correct your linked size chart to correspond with the correct official La Sportiva pictured size chart as shown on this page.These boots are very comfortable. The mid height collar is so smoothed I tried them on without socks and they do not scratch my leg at all. I always break-in my hiking shoes before a hike and these boots are so comfortable for me I feel like I could wear them straight to a hike.The shoelaces are plenty long enough for a proper lacing, and they would stay tight during a hike.The higher toe box feature of both these boots and the shoes versions makes a huge positively different in comfort level compared to my other shoes. The outsole is very grippy even in wet condition sans moss filled wet smooth larger rocks. I would certainly buy these again.
Awesome boots size 11us 45euro is about right if you wear other boots in this size. Be SUPER careful if you walk in these unlaced, I have about killed myself twice the tension loop and the hook from the other side caught and I face planted hard, and not just once, but twice on concrete face first… yeah, put a disclaimer on these that this is a thing (oh and I was sober) and am in good climbing shape, just got bruised up. La sportiva peeps if you want details contact me. The boot itself is comfortable and a good lower48 hiker/mountain boot.

Shoes felt heavy. My old ones were better.
The boots are adjusted and get better size one up.
Shoes were obviously used and 1 size smaller than what was ordered. I then bought from REI online and got the right size and the shoes are awes
