Reviewed by Hikey McHikerson from California on Tuesday, May 21, 2013The last pair of La Sportiva trail shoes I had were size 46.5 fit and they fit perfectly on my US 13-sized feet. I tried a 46.6 and a 47 in the Quantums but both were way, way too small. It was a struggle to get my feet in the 47's, and when I did I felt like I was going to bust out of them, Hulk-style. I don't know what happened to their sizing but they definitely do not fit like they used to.

Reviewed by HELIDR from Vermont on Monday, May 20, 2013Read the previous reviews and decided to buy the Quantum. I'm normally a 12.5 or 13, so I bought the 13.5 size. At first the shoe felt very snug, but after wearing it for a while...the shoe felt great. I've been out on a few short trail runs so far and the grip/stability has been excellent. You definitely want to go a size larger for comfort.

Reviewed by Trail from San Diego on Thursday, May 16, 2013If you have a narrow "C" shaped foot these are the best. The heel cup is narrow too. Great Quality!

Reviewed by Prehensile Trail from Colorado on Friday, May 10, 2013I've been a long fan of La Sportiva's climbing shoes and wanted to give their trail runners a shot. They're a little snug, but the rubber is tough, just the right amount of sticky, and actually forms to the terrain underfoot; giving your ankles a break and letting you keep your traction. These shoes aren't ideal for the sandy trails around my house, but they'll be perfect for talus fields and slabs in the high country.

Reviewed by J D from Texas on Wednesday, March 06, 2013Probably the most comfortable trail running shoe that I've owned. I have a very narrow foot, and I have found 2 or 3 shoes by La Sportiva that fit me, including this one. This one probably fits my narrow foot the best of them all. The "grippy" soles are effective. I really like these shoes.

Reviewed by CanoeIndiana from Indiana on Sunday, February 17, 2013I normally wear a 12 1/2 in a mens shoe. I ordered the European version of a 13 knowing it said about a size too small. When trying on the shoe I could only get about half of my heel into the shoe. These are more like an american size 11 not a 13. Way, way too short and the area near your toes is so tight and narrow you can't even get your feet into the front of the shoe. Beware when ordering these because they run extremely small. It doesn't make much sense that I have Merrel's in the same size and my feet slide around in them as they seem like a size 14.Will never understand those comparison charts and am tired of getting ''burnt'' trying to guess which size to order. Guess I'll eat the postage and send these back to ST.

Reviewed by THPj from Charlotte, NC on Wednesday, February 13, 2013I ordered the 46.5 which they call 12.5. These have a glove like fit which I like. Length is right on. I could probably wear a 47 (13) if I liked a roomy toe area for more running down hills. For reference, I have a narrow foot and wear a 11.5 narrow dress shoe, 12 in athletics shoes. With the coupon a great price. I ordered the red. I may order another pair in the yellow before they are gone.

Reviewed by Red Rock Tom from Sedona, AZ on Monday, January 28, 2013I wear a B width, so it's difficult to find great fitting hiking shoes. However, these fit very well for me. The american size seems to be mislabeled, so if you know tour Euro size, go by that, it seems accurate. I'd rate the durability as just average, due most probably to the sticky rubber sole material. But traction is great on solid surfaces.

Reviewed by Desert Off Trail Explorer from La Quinta, CA on Wednesday, January 23, 2013Like many reviewers, my first impression of these shoes was not positive. They have a very snug fit and seem to be smaller than some other La Sportiva models. Their fit is almost like a climbing shoes. But I decided to give them a try on some off trail terrain and I'm glad I did. I LOVE THESE SHOES! The traction and support is the very best I have ever experienced. I do a lot of off trail exploring and these shoes are perfect for that. The grip is outstanding and the hold your feet from slipping within the shoe while going over rocks and along cliffs. I would highly recommend them for Class 3 scrambles like the Mountaineers Route, The North Dome Gully, Long's Peak or any other route where you need a good grip. It took some getting used to but after I did I bought another pair. I may buy yet another. They are that good.

Reviewed by TW from IL on Tuesday, January 22, 2013I had to upsize one full size in length but found the width too narrow. I do not usually have a trouble with shoes being too narrow but just the opposite...too wide.
