Specifically, I wear a 10, 10.5, or 11 in most shoes (and I recall either 11.5 or 12 back when I wore Nikes), so it looks like that should translate to maybe a 45 typically? And given what @
Machine Age was saying about the Giros running small, maybe I should be considering a 46 for the Giro Republic - does that sound right? (I'd love to guess right and avoid a bunch of back and forth with Nashbar...

)
Sounds similar to me - I'm more or less a 11 but find I need up to a 12 in some shoes. I went with the 46 and don't think I would want to go smaller. I haven't got cleats on them yet but they feel pretty good.
