I'll post in this thread as well separately.
I've mentioned Sendra 13416 here and there in the past praising them.
I've had my size 41 pair for quite a few years now and as much as I love them they are just a tiny bit too small.
But 42-43 have always been out of stock everywhere, especially the black ones.
The brown ones look super nice as well, but I want my rugged lugged beater engineers to be black.
Recently trendbereich in Germany restocked on the black ones in size 42-43.
Pretty good price at 220eur per pair.
Great shipping price at 16eu to Estonia. Compare that to buying from Sendra directly or from shop-boots - they want over 50eur for shipping a pair, which is nuts.
And trendbereich offers free returns, even from Estonia!
So I grabbed both 42 and 43 for assurance.
Today they came and my fears/doubts about Sendra bullshit sizing were correct - their current 42 EU is the same size as my old 41. Sendra at some point were even signifying "Spain" and "EU" sizing separately. For example a had a pair that was 41 "Spain", 42 "EU", 8 UK and 9 US. Talk about confusing.
And since my pair is simply "41" without any specification I guess it's "Spain" 41.
I contacted Sendra support to get info about sizing but they are completely useless. Every single time I've ever talked to Sendra support it has been disappointing.
Anyway, I'm glad that the 43 fit me rather well, especially with an insert, so I'll be keeping them.
According to the box 42EU = 8UK = 8.5US and 43EU = 9UK = 9.5US. Such weird sizing...
Here are some shots of my old 41 (???) next to the new 43 EU ones.
Note that the photo angle exaggerates the last shape from above, it's not that drastic of a difference in person, but there does seem to be a slight difference.
