I purchased a pair in size 47, which is my regular shoe size. I found the shoe to be very narrow. I sent them back. Great service from Sigma. Wish the wide version was available in the UK like it is in the USA.

Shimano RX801 Gravel Shoes
Shimano's RX801 Gravel Shoes are well suited to a range of off-road disciplines, so whether cyclocross, gravel racing or fast off-road adventures are your thing, these are an excellent, high-performance option. An inkjet printing finish gives the shoes a unique, smart aesthetic.
The upper is constructed from a microfibre synthetic leather and mesh to maximise both durability and breathability. An RX800 lightweight carbon sole makes the shoes stiff and highly efficient, effectively transferring all your power through the pedals. Closure is via a single BOA® Li2 dial and toe strap so there's plenty of room for micro-adjustment and quick mid-ride tweaks.
When shouldering the bike, climbing over stiles or simply going into a cafe after a ride, the TPU lugs bring confidence-inspiring grip.
Sizing note:
Shimano shoes run small. For example, if you usually wear a 44, order a 45 here. If you're between half sizes, always go up.

About Shimano
Shifting the way the world rides.
From a single Osaka workshop in 1921, Shimano has grown into the world's most influential component maker. The brand's relentless engineering — Dura-Ace, Ultegra, GRX, XTR — has shaped the way the world shifts, brakes and rides, on the road and off it.
Shimano's flagship groupset, Dura-Ace, has been the benchmark for top-level road components for more than five decades. Every refinement that lands on Dura-Ace eventually shapes the entire Shimano range, all the way down to entry-level drivetrains.
