Makers sell shoes with similar size numbers on the boxes but the actual shoes fit differently. ( I vary between UK 9.5 to 12, depending on the make). Good stores measure your feet so they do not sell you pups., they know the fitting characteristics of the footwear they sell.
This is a UK store that has now opened in my area. Their prices are extremely more attractive than similar outfitters. I was wondering about the quality. Anyone familiar with their wares? I was looking at their line of rucksacks, they are light enough but will they fall apart.
There are three things you don't want to skimp on. Your back pack, your shoes, and your sleeping bag. Go to a established outdoors store.This is a UK store that has now opened in my area.

Thanks for the replies. They are pretty much what I expected. I never planned buying footwear there, and am still leaning towards an osprey pack. Everything else seems fair game though. I'm assuming a merino t shirt is a merino t shirt. I didn't look closely at their sock selection but as far as other incidentals, bits and bobs there is quite a savings to be had.
