I upgraded from my old size 11 SG-10s which were in pretty good shape but the plastic buckle straps were starting to break off from age. The SG-12s are very rugged, high quality, quite comfortable, and look great. They feel slightly longer than the SG-10s so thicker-than-street-shoe socks are needed. My street shoe width is "C" so, like all the dirt bike boots I've worn for over 55 years, these are a bit wide but not enough to be annoying. Heavy cold weather socks feel snug. As they break in more and buckles are readjusted I think they'll be fine. Size 10.5 would probably be too snug especially with heavy socks. I would buy these again.
