    Yes. I'm the same, size 10 but get 45s.
    I'm selling some white Vernice ergo 2s with a bit of scuffing to sides and one of buckles is slightly damaged (the lever is snapped) but still works, if interested. New buckles can be bought from places like PBK. PM me if interested.

    Cheapest I've seen is Ribble, or Merlin with their 10% discount but limited stock now

    Absolute cycles via eBay. Though I ordered via phone this week.

    I got mine from Wiggle at http://www.wiggle.co.uk/sidi-five-2011-road-shoes/. They only seem to have Steel/Silver left but don't look as bling in the flesh as you'd think. They also do free returns so you can order 2 pairs (diff size, colour etc) and send back ones you don't want. I tried all my LBSs but they told me Sidi were a nightmare for getting stock. I've had them before so knew 44 should fit fine and it does but I have skinny feet, they do wider Mega ones in case you need them. Hope that helps, they're really comfy shoes by the way, £140 odd was a bit painful but good shoes are usually worth paying for!

    I got some Megas through Evans this week. They were reduced and then they had their 10% offer on top of that. Came in £40 cheaper than anywhere else, but trying to find Megas is not that easy as I found out!

    The Black Ergo 2s @ Merlin with the extra 10% is a cracking deal IMO: http://www.merlincycles.co.uk/Bike+Shop ... BLACK1.htm

    I found this to be helpful: http://www.sidishoestore.com/sidi-shoe-size.pdf

    Cut out the paper and work out your size that way. It was spot on for me. Rather than guess the end of my heel I folded the paper and stuck it against the skirting.

    A good way of checking your width is shown here on the Lake site: http://www.lakecycling.com/footwear.html

    cheers for replies guys! Opted for sidi lasers 125 on winstanleys was going to get the genius 6.6. but at 125 and my first foray into expensive shoes thought these would be ideal! Decent array of sizes too if anyone else looking and 125 by far cheapest I could find them. Also Nap couldnt you just order a new buckle from sidi for your shoes? may do you as a good second pair
