Scouts run true to size/ a slight bit large. I wear 11 1/2 tennis shoes and I wear the 11-12 Shanes. I would go with the size 11 scouts. I had a set last year and sold them because I didn't think that they gave enough support to / were not tight enought on / my toes. I'd go with some Shanes.

I've never worn the Scouts but pretty much everyone describes them as real comfy and not real supportive.

My shoe size is 11 1/2 or 12 depending on the shoes. My size 11-12 Shanes fit me perfectly. Mine are '06s but I've ridden the '07s and the '08s and the size seems to be consistent from year to year.

I know that's not what you asked, but its all I got. Laughing

Here's a pair for you 07 Shanes size 10-11 $269.90 shipped

EDIT: Wow, I just saw all those Scouts on Ebay for $99.00 plus $15.00 for shipping. Dang that's cheap. How much were those things when they were new? Confused Shocked

HHI Dave, they were $349. no one wants them cause they're ugly as sin and lose their support very quickly. same reason no one is buying kai boots this year.

LakeIolaLuke, You mean people don't want mushy bindings that look like eagle scout mocassins? Say it ain't so. Shocked
