Guys- I think I've settled in on a pair of Gaerne G-react boots for this season. None of my local dealers stock the brand.

Can you give me some first hand input on how they run, fit-wise? I wear a 10.5 street shoe, and am guessing I should go with the 11, but some input from owners would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I was once in the same boat. I went with the 11 and they fit perfect.

Give them a try first if you can. I normally wear a size 14 and The SG12's fit me in size 13.

When I wore SG12's, I found that I had to go up a size. Normally wear a 10 shoe, and got an 11 boot. This also holds true for Fox Instincts.

Thanks for the replies all. Most confirm that sizing is true enough for an 11 to be better for me as a 10.5 than a 10.

Of course I'd love to try before I buy, but as stated in the OP, no local dealers carry the brand. Makes it impossible to try first.

I will report back.

most people wear thicker moto socks when riding, so if you can take the socks you ride in when you try em on... my Fox instinct are a tad tight when i wear thick socks so i find myself wearing thin sports socks...

I'd get the Size 11 if I was you. I am pretty much in the same boat. I get the 1/2 size up and then I usually get thick athletic shoe insoles and put those in. That takes up the little bit of extra space.

I was looking at the SG-12 last year and I was a size 10.5 so I tried a 10 and it was way to tight you need your foot to have some room to move a little and breath... I decided to go with the 11 and it's been great!
