Not heard of them before but they seem well reviewed and for £25 they might be worth a punt...

**edit** DAMMIT wrong forum!

I've got some Raidlight kit, well put together and a decent brand.

Anyone got any insight as to how the fit on these compares to other brands?

Any comparison with Walsh, Inov-8 or Salomon would be useful, ta 🙂

Aye they sold out quick.

I gave them a punt since even if they don't work for me running they will be fine for walking and general wearing at that price. Nothing worse than crap shoes imo

They size up small apparently, though I guess that's too late now! If mine don't fit I'll post up here, ordered 11s.

I wasn't aware of that brand !

However, I've just bought some similar Inov 8's for £30 😀

I'm after some waterproof ones below £50 ideally, don't really want to give sports direct my money.

wearing mine now.

i wouldnt say they size up small so much as they size up narrow - which is fine as i have long narrow feet.

Im a size 44 and bought a size 44.

spacious toe box

snug lacing system. very little tension results in a tight fit around your heel - but little force across the bridge.

Why would you want waterproof running shoes? All they do is hold water in. Good running shoes get water out fast

Depending on your size, you could get some Salomon Speedcross from Millets Sports. They're the CS edition, so waterproof. £54 if you use code MSD10OFF.

FWIW, I have to go up .5 in Salomons.

I've bought a pair of these in UK size 10.5. They're a little too small and I should have got a size up. If anyone would like to buy them or has some 11.5s that they'd like to swap then let me know. Cheers
