To anyone that owns them, do they run pretty true to size?
I am usually a 9 but wondering about stuffing socks, drysuit booties and thin neo socks into them during the winter. Thanks, Chris ------------- H2Ohta |

Just FYI - 5.10 was just bought be Adidas and although no changes have been announced yet you might want to get your shoes quick because you know how this merger can change things. |

I wear a 10.5 in most shoes and an 11 works great for me. Love mine, but after a couple of years of use the sole is separating from the last. Hoping shoe goo works. Also, depending on the boat you may have fit issues. I paddle a Nomad 8.5 and they fit fine once in but getting them in is a bit snug. On the bright side they are ridiculously sticky on wet rocks, and great for hiking in/out/portaging. Might also look at the Savants, a little lower profile and less beefy. ------------- Chris B. |

Definitely less bomber than the Canyoneer, but I didn't care for how bulky the canyoneers were at my heels, which is probably just reflects the way I set my feet in my feet. The savants drain super well. Also quite comfortable for hike-ins, etc. I've jogged shuttles in mine and had no problems with my feet (usually have some plantar fascia problems). Mine are a half size bigger than what my street shoes are and seem to be perfect with drysuit booties and socks on. I also have the superfeet inserts in. ------------- "That boated a lot better than it looked." "It always does until it doesn't." |

i have a pair of canyoneers. i wear my shoe size, and they fit comfortably. I only wear them in my creekboat. I think they are both comfortable and durable. Any shoe you wear in the water a lot, you can expect to come apart pretty quickly with heavy use. 5.10 makes a range of water shoes of different weights. You can not surpass the friction of these shoes. The footing is bomber. ------------- sitting all alone on a mountain by a river that has no end |

yeah I got a pair that I really like. They aren't low profile at all though and they do break down after just a couple years..., They are good for hikes, offering support and cushion. Just make sure they fit into the boat. Fit true to size. I definitely consider getting a replacement pair.

| I will say I have been using the same pair of Scarpa Approach shoes for the last two years, very intensely. Not coming apart in any way, shape or form. And cheaper. |

seattle bouldering project stocks pretty much the full line of 510 shoes, including the canyoneer and 2-3 lighter weight models.
scarpa approach shoes i would think would work well, but european shoes are way too narrow for my feet.... ------------- sitting all alone on a mountain by a river that has no end |
