Table tennis shoe sizing

bbkon made a what I thought was a good suggestion on another thread about shoes.  The question is for people with a lot of experience with TT shoes, do certain brands run consistently smaller than size would suggest, are others larger, etc.??

Have you encountered certain brands that are consistently larger or consistently smaller than the size indicates?  If so, maybe you can post your experience on this thread. 

This could be useful information for people who like TT shoes but are forced to buy them on-line because there is no such thing as a walk-in store anywhere with thousands of miles of where they live -- for example, substantial parts of North America.

I can start by saying that most of the Asics TT shoes that I have tried run pretty true to size -- what they call a European 46 is really a 46.

I agree.
And from my personal experience, same applies for clothing, as different models may come from different factires using different measurements (besides different style/cuts)

For Mizuno shoes, generally one can use CM of feet (heel to toe) and add 1.5CM to get shoe size. Ie 26cm + 1.5cm = 27.5cm, maybe up to +2cm. But then I have 2 different models and same size, and one is a lot more tighter (that I should of gone +2.0mm).

That is a good suggestion for people who go to US Open also.
