But I live only about a 15 minute drive away from their offices. So I won't have to experience any of the shipping hassles. Well what I was wondering is do the +POS shoes run big or small? Are their sizes the same as Nike or Reebok? I was also wondering about Spotbilt sizes also.

I've had a pair of +POS low top plate shoes for 7 years and they're still looking good, taking a great shine and the soles show very little wear. Only problem was that the very top of the tongues kept laying over from my shinguards. They eventually creased real well and one tongue top started to tear a little when I was putting them on two years ago. Solved the problem by taking a pair of scissors and cutting off both tongues at the crease. No one can see them and they still work/feel great.

As I've gotten older I've started to develop weak ankles. If I ever do have to replace my plate shoes I will probably go with a pair of high tops for extra support. BTW, my plate shoes were true to size with my regular shoes.
