    I figure coming into summer is as good a time as any to look for a pair of winter boots (3 bolt for SPD-SL cleats)

    Size 44 (28cm) Not bothered what brand or colour so long as they’re not old as hell and worn so they must be reasonably clean and unmarked.

    Pictures and price including postage required.

    I have a pair of Northwave winter boots in 45 that I havent used as I dont get on with them.
    Gore Tex inserts. Not sure about the cleat hole pattern for Shimano.
    Size 45.

    I've got a brand new Shimano pair in my basement, will check sizing later today, not sure if they are 43 or 44

    I have Northwave Revolution road shoes and theyre 44 and perfect fit. Can you check on the label inside the tongue what the CM size on them as sometimes it may differ between models.If they have 3 bolt hole pattern then theyre fine, if theyre only 2 hole for SPD then theyre no good for me. Thanks

    If theyre 44 they may suit but definitely not a 43 in Shimano. As abovecan you check the label and tell me the CM size as I have learned that Euro/UK sizes mean nothing anymore and you need to go by the CM size on the label.

    Thanks

    CM size is 29,3 according to the box.The writing on the label is worn off!
    Its 3 bolt hole pattern ie for LOOK cleats.

    i have a pair of northwave winter boots SPD-SL , i think they are a 43 which NW call a UK 9.5
    measurement is 27.8cm accoridng to NW

    im normally a 42 shoe, 43 in cycling shoe and these are too big for me.
    boots are clean but soles are marked as i used them with MTB pedals on occasion

    I had a pair of size 44 S-Works shoes which were 27.8cm which were ok length wise but too narrow. I know NW are slightly wider fitting so they 'might' work but i'd never know without trying them and so unless your anywhere near Letterkenny then that's probably not a possibility.

    Can you post up a picture of them and i'll try and see what year/model they are and try and find some online reviews which might help me find out if they'd fit or not. Thanks

    Read a few reviews and it seems people need to size up one or two sizes for use with winter socks so i'd say that rules them out for me but thanks anyway.
