Sidi Mega (wide) shoe markings

Posted on
  • Quick question- are the boxes and shoes clearly marked that they are the mega versions?

    Have checked the box, tongue and sole and all just say 45.

    Need to know as I have already had problems with the shop that sold them to me (mail order) regarding delivery and I think I'm about to have a breakdown if they have now managed to send me the wrong size.

  • Pretty sure the tongue has an M on it.

  • Should have the M on them somewhere. Underside of the tongue I think on mine. Not sure about the boxes though.

  • Bah! distracted by my CEO. Curse you hippy! *shakes fist

  • And for my finishing blow..

    Every SIDI shoe (except the Triathlon models) from the 2002 model year forward is stamped with the size and last. (Mega, Narrow or Women’s shoe) The stamp is usually found on the tongue. For example, a Woman’s model in size 40.5 would be stamped 40 ½ W, with the “W” indicating that it is a Women’s model. (in older shoes this may be an L) If you had a Mega model, the stamp would be 40 ½ M, and if you had a Narrow model, the stamp would be 40 ½ S, with the “S” indicating that it is a SLIM model. Ignore the size on the sole, which is the closest whole size, meaning that a 42, a 42.5 women’s and a 42 mega would all have 42 stamped on the sole.

  • Cheers Hippy (and Aroogah).

    Turns out the new dominator with SRS doesn't come in Mega yet.

    Now have to decide whether to risk the 45s loosening up a little or get some 46s instead- however weighing on that is the farcical communication and service from the site I ordered from...

  • Get the 46's and some decent inner soles (or foot-beds)

  • Real men wear 47 megas.

  • Chris, earlier today:

  • You know I don't wear my tux in the day.

  • Real men wear 47 megas.

    amen

  • RealMan™ now in custom-drilled Shimanos but the 47Ms are still there for rainy days.
