Bought these for a daily shoe and lightweight after-work hiker. I sized up a half size from my normal 45 to a 45.5 due to color availability and they still fit really well; a tiny bit of extra room in the toe, but excellent fit in regard to the heel and width. This may detract a little from its climbing efficiency, but very comfortable and will probably still outperform a hiker-so I’d choose your size like a hiking boot, not a climbing shoe. Could be too hot for warm weather adventures due to the thick suede uppers. Laces are subpar, sneaker style, won’t last long I suspect. Seems perfect for daily use-looks professional enough for the casual office environment but can still get you up some easy 5th’s 👌
