For those who own Lake shoes, how do they fit, do they run small or big?

I wear a size 14 shoe and Lake only makes a 13.5 or a 15, any suggestions?

I am looking for a road shoe that does not have a slippery sole, any other suggested prooducts would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I have a pair of the Lake CX120s; my feet are quite small (42 metric/ 7.5 US) for a guy (sign of good breeding, ,I suppose :rolleyes: ). I've found them to fit pretty well, although the problem caused by the end of the tongue sticking into to top of my foot can be fixed by folding the end of the tongue under the strap.

They're quite comfortable, but like any shoe they mustn't be over-tightened. I use them with Look cleats, and by using covers on the cleats when I'm not riding, they are very easy to walk in, although they do look a bit "Herman Munster-ish".
