I'm sure this thread will help alot of you, and I'm sorry if it's already been touched on already but I've been told certain brands vary differently size wise. I was just wondering how Lotto, Adidas, Diadora, Puma and Nike all compare concerning their sizes. I currently use a 9.5 in my vapors and manage just a little bit of room for my toes to feel comfortable but I can now get the Predator Pulse 2's for $50 and some other good shoes as well. I just want to make sure I don't end up wasting money and ultimately get a shoe that feels to big or small.

If I'm a 9.5 in a vapor, what would I be in a...

1. Pulse (Adidas)
2. Cellerator (Puma)
3. F50+ (Adidas)
4. Vento Ltd. Gold (Lotto)
5. Attiva (Diadora)

Thanks alot,

Clayton

In my experience Adidas, Puma and Lotto all size slightly smaller than Nike, so I think you would wear a 9 in all three of these. I wear a 10.5 US in Nike and 10 in the other three brands. I have never owned diadora. I also find that k-leather streches more than other leather and the stretching is the big question.

At soccer.com they usually have a brief indication of how the model will fit.

I like this question, boring but very useful. As much as I like the buying from the store experience the online deals are very hard to look past.

Good Luck.

yeah the sizing description on soccer.com is useful.

for a pulse, get a smaller one, maybe half size smaller, the vapors are a tad longer in length compared to pulses. i have both pairs. the pulses will stretch.
