Ganda Guide Size Question

I know this is insane, so feel free to poke fun. Im way too into sizing my shoes just perfectly and I can't hit it right on the Ganda Guides. I have a 42.5 and they're too sloppy. Getting them in the first place was a slight bitch. Now that they're discontinued, I can't try them on anywhere and the only place I can find them reasonably priced is Euro shops. Would anyone be willing to put a ruler on their 42's or 41.5's so I don't fuck up and order a pair from Europe that doesn't work? Maybe just along the sole or the footbed. I would buy you all the beers if I ever met you. Thanks in advance

Try a different footbed, like a green superfeet or a red 'sole'

Mine turned out to be a half size too big, so I just added thicker footbeds. Problem solved. I personally don't find them to be all that great a shoe and wouldn't buy another pair.

The footbed I used is the blue Ed Viesturs one. Pulled them out of my cross country ski boots.

I agree completely. There are better options at half the price.
