how long ago have you tried on a pair? i will say the toe box has opened up a little over the years.. i have been wearing the same model (crossfire TA) and have had 4 pair over nearly 10 years, all same size. the first pair (still wear em sometimes) are the tightest fit. the last pair i actually slid a 2nd insole into to get em really snug but still would say they fit true to size. . werd..
