Women’s Miura VS
|
I’m trying to buy my wife some Miura VS. however, there aren’t a lot of stores around utah that carry them in stock. She usually wears 37 in women’s shoes, but recently tried on a 36.5 otaki and liked the fit. I know it’s hard to compare the fit of shoes, but what size would you recommend for the miura VS? 37 or 36.5? |
|
Data point for you: My wife wears 7.5 in all running shoes. she wears a 38 in the Miura VS. she wore a 37.5 for a while but was in too much pain. |
|
I'm a 7.5 street shoe, wear 36.5 miura vs, 37 miura lace, 37 testarossa. I like to size my miuras down significantly because I use them for edging. how you size them really depends on what you're planning on climbing. |
|
Do they stretch much? @claty I’ve read mixed reviews about them stretching. Some say it stretches a lot and some say it stretches 1/4 size |
|
Not sure if this is helpful, but -- |

I don't think they stretch as much as break in, but either way, they definitely won't get too much bigger. |
|
I think it depends on the foot shape and your wife's preference for how tight she likes her climbing shoes. I like my shoes fairly tight. My street shoe size is 7, I wear 38 in running shoes, all my climbing shoes from Sportiva are 36 (Miura, Miura VS, Katana, Katana Lace, Mythos when I had them) with the exception of TC Pros (there is so much material in those shoes they run a bit small in smaller sizes). I've tried Otaki in the store and 36 felt right. I have narrow feet, low volume heels and high arches for reference. |
|
^^^I was going to say the same. There isn't much that Otaki can't do what Miura VS does. |
|
Not sure if I'm too late to the game, but I wear a 36.5 in the miura vs and a 36 in the otaki. Both women's versions. The otakis have a bit of a wider toe box, so can size down a tiny bit. I'm a size 8.5 street show, but like my shoes pretty tight |
