I have a pair of Tenaya Iatis in 11.5 that fit me just right. I'd like to buy a pair of Inti's but don't know what size to order (no shops near me). Anyone have both and can offer advice? Mark - anyone?

You're probably looking at a 12.5 in the Inti. I'm using a Tarifa and the Ra, and there's a whole size difference. I tried on a pair of the Iatis at Waterstone Outdoors and found the size similar to the Tarifa. Don't care for the way the velcro closure is though, since I have to adjust it in wierd ways to get it on my foot.
When I first got my Tenaya shoes, I asked the Trango guys for advice and found them to be spot on. I ended up ordering three sizes so I could try on each and return the ones that didn't fit.

Thanks Chris - I love my Iati's once I get them on - but they are one serious pain in the butt to get on. That's why I want a pair of Inti's - so I can take them off and on quicker in the gym. I thought about the Ra's but the low volume of the Inti I think might match the fit of the Iati's better. I think I'll do the order 3 return 2 just like you did. I'm pretty sold on the Tenaya's after being a die hard Sportiva fan for years - the comfort is just too great even when tight - something I've never been able to get with any other brand.

Yeah, I feel the same way. The Tenaya's are definitely the most comfortable shoes I've worn. I used to wear 5.10, but they never quite fit correctly.
The first time I did the buy 3 return 2 thing, the Trango guys were able to give me free return shipping. They said they couldn't do it the next time, but it was pretty nice the first time!
Getting the Oasi and the Inti on my foot was a bit unusual. I had to loosen the adjustable velcro tab to get my foot into the shoes, but once my foot was in I had to readjust the velcro tab to get it to close. I talked to the Trango guys about it and it doesn't seem like it was a typical problem. I think I may just have funny shaped feet.

I had a chance to try on a pair of Ra's at 12 1/2 (supposed to fit the same as the Inti's) and they were a little too big - I think 12 is going to be my first size to try.

I'd be interested to hear what you think of the Inti's compared to the Ra
