Can somebody help me with sizing? Do they run small or big?

I normally wear 9 street shoes...I have tried the new Alpinestars tech 7 and 9 were on the edge of being to small.. Now have a chance to buy Instnict..but they are size 11... Will they be too big?

For me they run small. I normally use size 10 but have 11 now and they just fit. If you can try go for it, but I guess your not to far off with the sizing, maybe a tiny bit to big.

Disclaimer: Mine are 2015 models and production samples.

They run a size small. I am a 13 shoe in every brand and a 14 Fox Instinct.

The first gen runs one size small.

The latest gen is supposed to run true to size.

Like mentioned above. When the the Instincts first came out you had to order a size bigger. About a year after the first release they re-did the the sizing and its pretty true now. I had to wear a 14 in the first gen, and 13's now. Usually 12 or 13 (13 more so as I get older). I am guessing most if not all the first gen's are gone.

I have the most recent generation size 9, wear size 9 shoe, wish I got the size 10 Instinct. Feels like a vice on my foot, too small...

They run true to the American size. Other brands are converted euro sizes so they run a little different. For example, alpinestars and gaerne mark their size 47 euros as size 12 when 47 is more like a 12-1/2. Fox 12s are actually 12 so they fit a little smaller than other boots marked in the same size. Whatever nike size you wear should be close to fox. If you're half sized, go up.

I'm sure the OP is really confused now. Half the replies say they run small and half say they run true to size.

Maybe try them on before you buy them? At least they're a larger size than your normal shoe size so if they don't fit you can put some odor eaters inside them to take up the extra space. It will help with the cat piss smell of the Instincts at the same time.

Easier to wear thick socks, or double up, than jam your feet in boots that are to small. Imo. Upsize.if any doubts.

That's what I've found out to be true about the latest version...
