So...I quite fancy a pair of Sparco or OMP boots as a bit more feel, etc would be nice when driving Vix.

 

Having nowhere local to try plus being 'frugal', likely will purchase online.

 

So...to anyone on here who owns a pair, how do both brands size up when compared to your 'normal' size feet?

 

I'm a little chap with little feet and am normally a size 41 / 7.5.

 

PS - My wife has got used to it.... ;-)

I wear OMP boots for sprinting and they're a perfect fit (I'm an 11 and bought an 11) - so I'd get your 'normal' size. These weren't cheap, but are the softest leather I've ever worn on my feet, so perfect for driving. I also have some Adidas 'track star' which look mostly like normal trainers, but are thin soled driving trainers. Those fit fine, but are a bit on the narrow side for my wide feet.

I have a pair of Drift Cat 5s and and prefer them to my Sparco racing boots.

Bare feet. Wonderful feeling of power under your big toe. But it hurts if you crash!
