Great out of the box. New XSV Grip rubber is super sticky. Shoes are very precise but run a little large. Usually a 39 in a Testarossa but went down to a 38 in the Solutions. A 38.5 probably would have given me the same sizing as the 39 Testarossa. At first, I had serious trouble getting the shoes on through the small opening but the fabric stretched out comfortably quickly over the first few wears. Don't know if I had this problem because I have wide feet, but they're fine now. Hands down, the Solutions are the best Sportiva shoe.

I ordered a small since I already have a size small Lola in Blue Dot from last year and it fits perfectly. However, the Espresso Bubble small was two inches narrower in the body than the Blue Dot Lola I already had. I returned it and got a medium which is exactly the same size as last year's small.

I own two pairs of OR Mythic Capris from last season and they are amongst my favorite pants. However, this season, the material changed, it is more like a microfibre. As well, the sizing has changed. My past season Mythic Capris are size S so I ordered S again, only to find that this seasons Small is 1.5 inches bigger in the waist. I had to return them because they were too big.
