For boots: Add one half size to your street shoe size. You should be able to slip one finger behind your heel when you are standing up with the boot unlaced and your toes touching the front. If the boot is too short, your toes will get smashed walking downhill. Too long and your heel will slide up and down and give you blisters.

The seams that hold the laces in place busted the first time I wore them outside: and this just for a walk down the road. I have narrow feet and wear the same size in all La Sportiva shoes. so it's not the size of my foot. As I already wore them and discarded the packaging, I can't return them. I have several La Sportiva trail running and hiking shoes and none have fallen apart as these have—and certainly not the first time I wore them. I was a loyal La Sportiva customer...probably not anymore. Disappointed with this purchase.
Pretty poopy. Soul of shoe is coming off, back of shoe broke and gave me a hug blister. Love La Sportiva, but hated these. And yes, used as true approach shoes.
