I really like the Altra Intuition and have been looking forward to them for some time, but couldn't get them anywhere sadly. I think they could be perfect. Too bad that yours won't fit me, OakLeaf.

I have two pair of the Altra Intuitions that have never been worn that I'm looking to sell. I'd have to look when I get home, but I think that one pair is a US 7.5 and one is a US 8. If I am remembering correctly, the 8's were too big for me (too long) and the 7.5 were the right size, but too narrow. I kept them both too long to return them to Altra. I typically wear a 38 EU, so the US 8's might work for you, if you are interested. I'd be willing to sell them at a sizeable discount just to find them a happy home.

Oh now that would be great.
I'd have to check how much customs I'd have to pay. I think the US 8's might work, as they say on their homepage they run a size small.

[GLC1968]

OK, let me check the sizes when I get home tonight. I'll let you know!

[Susan]

Thank you GLC!

I just checked the sizes in my running shoes, and they are inconsistent...
The label on my Nike Lunarglides says: US 7.5, UK 5, EU 38.5
The label on my Merells says: US 8.5, UK 6, EU 39
For ordinary (non-running) shoes I buy 38.

Both are a tad big for me. As the Altras are supposed to run small, I'm not sure if I'd need 8's or 8.5's ... or mabe even bigger ones?

GLC, I don't mean to bug you, but I'm just so curious if you really have a spare pair of the Altras?

Sorry! I forgot to look!

I just checked, and I have a 7.5 and an 8. The 7.5 is the right length for me and I normally wear a 7. These shoes seem to be about a half size too short. So if you think the 8 will fit you, (and you are willing to pay shipping/customs), I'd be happy to sell them to you. $75 plus shipping, perhaps?

GLC, sorry that I am so late - I PM-ed you
