I wear a size 41 street shoe. My Mythos are size 39. At first they were so small I could barely get my feet into them, but they've stretched a lot so now they are very comfortable; I could probably be a half size smaller and still wear them fine. Other people have said these shoes stretch a lot, at least as much as any others. I don't have a lot of others to compare with, but it doesn't surprise me to hear it.

Hope this helps you.

Going down 2.5-3 sizes is pretty extreme with the mythos. I would say 1.5-2 sizes down from your "Nike" size. They're not aggressive and if they're too tight you won't be doing any smearing/crack (what they do best)
