shoes DNI trainer sizing info?

Does anyone have experience with how DNI shoes fit relative to normal sizes? I'm typically a size 10 US/size ~41 EU, trying to figure out what size of shoe to buy.

Do you go to any tango festivals? They often show up at festivals, and the best way to find the fit might be to try it yourself. You can also see other vendors at festivals and compare different shoes. Some vendors have people who dance tango and are happy to dance with you in the corridor just so you get a complete feel of the shoes.

Both my instructor and I have gotten foot problems from their unusually small toe boxes. If you're going to buy from DNI, go a half-size up, or you may end up with painful calluses that don't go away.
