This is my third or fourth pair of Salomons. I wear a 9 in womens and a 7 in mens and this brand always fits true to size. Speedcross is my go-to trail shoe (unless they ever decide to start making their Fellraiser style again - please?!) and I can't say enough good stuff about them. The larger toebox and root-gripping traction are huge assets on my runs. My only word of caution: these will fly out from under you unexpectedly while on smooth surfaces such as tile or wood if either your shoes or the floor is wet - they're best worn off-road only!
