Honig Plate Shoes

I am about to purchase some brand new Honig K-70's for $75. The only problem is that they are size 12. I wear a size 11 tennis shoes. Does anyone know if Honig's shoes run true to size, or if this would be a good idea for me to buy these? Thanks

Mine run true, including generous room for cushion socks for plate shoes.

Why don't you pay less, and get shoes that fit? The Protectors, from Gerry Davis, or the exact same lowtops from inhousesports.com? (if you feel lucky)

Actually they are the same shoe. I agree...for example, the New Balance 450's (which I love) are a mere $25 more. Why not spend a few bucks here & there to get shoes & equipment that fit! Remember what we told you about spending a few bucks to get the best & most comfortable gear.

Skip the guesswork and go somewhere that you can try on your gear before you buy it. That's a luxury many don't have, but since you're in the central Ohio area it's an option.
