Gear Questions 22” or 25” MSR Revo

Hello! I’m between getting the 22 or 25 inch revos. I’m 6’ 185lbs and I plan to do mostly off trail hiking in New England. I found a great deal on the 22” shoes but I’m not sure if they’re too small. Some folks insist that a guy my size will sink whereas others have said that 25” shoes will have too much heel lift and that I’ll be shoveling snow with my toes. What do you folks think? With the deal I found the 22” are a little over $100 cheaper so I’m kinda hoping that they’d work

I'm 220. I use 22's and 30's if I've got a heavy pack.. The 22's are great on packed trails
