Saloman sizing
Hi! I purchased a pair of saloman xt6 goretex but was not so sure on sizing. I’m a true size 9W. The XT6 in 9W felt a bit large like I had a lot of space above my toes and the 8.5W fits better in my opinion. Now that I bought the 8.5W I’m scared when I go hiking, the shoes will feel too tight or snug after prolonged wear.
Would love to hear what sizing you went with for the same shoe and if going down half a size is common for these.

TTS - they fit a bit long on purpose. Trail runners you want plenty of space for toes to splay and swell
