    Boots for women.

    Just wondering if your average sports boot fits well on both men and women?

    I've got my eye on some Sidi Vertigos but I have very narrow and relatively small feet. I know the obvious solution is go out and try some on but I wouldn't mind a rough idea as to what I can expect.

    So yeah.... sports/race style boots for women. Any advice?

    Thanks!

    Dammit misread the title. Thought it said "Boobs for Women" - was hoping for more.

    womens foots are a different shape than mens (usually) that's the reason for mens and womens sizing? But I say if the boot fits... then no problems.

    Back on topic....

    I have wide-ish feet so I often fit men's shoes better than women's. But I tried on a pair of Sidi Rose boots and they fit like a... glove.... for feet...

    So anyway I think the only way to find out is to try them on. I'm sure there's no shortage of gals off here who'd be happy to go boot shopping with you!

    What size are you and are you coming down to the track on Saturday? I assume you're after boots for the track, or a multi purpose type of job?

    I have narrow feet too and wear Sidi Vertigos for the track and Sidi Rose Tepors for work. I use a foot bed to take up some extra volume in the Vertigos. Works well for me.

    Yes, a multipurpose boot tough enough for the track too.

    I won't be going on the track on Saturday (it's scary!) but I can easily pop over and introduce myself.

    My current boots are a size EURO 40... whatever that means. I think they're a 7 or something. Most of the stuff I get is a 6 or 7.

    Thanks for your help so far. And to Keystone19, using insoles is a good idea, cheers!

    Cool doll, be great to meet you, come say hi and you can try on my boots if you want. (May be a bit hot and smelly though!)
