Corami Pistol Shoes

[The Doctor]

Has anyone had experience with these, particularly sizing - I am a size 11 normally, and I think this would equate to a 46 in these pistol shoes, but am a little unsure?

Can anyone help?

I'm a 12 and got the size 47. They seem to be quite wide-fitting. Given you're standing still with them on, the length shouldn't be an issue. I've no fault for them. They come with various inserts and there are lace stops so you can keep it loose down low, but tighten up further up your foot. Mega adjustable. Overall, can't fault them. The soles are very rigid, so don't put them on too far from the firing point .

One thing I have learned is that they aren't the solution to your shooting short-comings. You'll still need consistency and a good technique. I still think they're worth it as they close off one more of those things on your to-do list

the only safe way is to try a pair. easier said than done! i know.
don't forget your feet swell when standing at a firing point for 2 hours,and always try on a pair late on in the day when your feet have reached their maximum size.
being a pistol shooter i am confined to wearing shoes but could not justify spending £100+ for shoes
therefor i use a pair of cycling specific trainers (sixsixone) which have a mega flat and stiff sole and only cost £50. used only for shooting and nothing else.

Yeah I have realised that throwing money at everything isn't the answer, but the current pair of shoes I have are not great, and I am trying to break my PB of 561 so all that I can do to help ...

thanks for the advice!!

I agree jonyb, but my feet really do suffer after a while, which is distracting to say the least

as you say,one less thing to worry about.
what about sauer shoes?

I thought the corami were better as they have the additional in soles etc .. they were recommended to me.

I had sauers for 10m, but they didn't fit. I prefered the look and build of the sauers... but all the inserts etc that come with the coramis make life easier.
