Black "Stealth" Foamposite ones!!! December 14th, 2012 - A FRIDAY!!!!

Finally got my pair a couple days ago.

While i wasn't willing to pay over 350 for these foams, i had no problem doing that for a ds pair of dmp 6's.

I very much want a pair of these.  I am willing to pay the current asking prices, even though it pretty much eats up my sneaker budget for most of the year.  I have never had a pair of foams before (although I have a pair of AF-1 back fridays on the way), and I'm not sure if I should go up a size.  If anyone who owns these wants to chime in, it would be much appreciated.  Thanks!

After experimenting with sizing here's my recommendation:

-Go to a shoe store and have your foot measured for length and size. You'll want to go towards the end of the day or after you've walked around a bit. Your feet will expand a little as the day/heat progresses so go at the peak.
-If you are in-between sizes and have a normal (D) or narrow width feet, take the the next size up. Do not size down. For example if your largest foot measures between a 9 and 9.5 C or D, then you'll want a 9.5. If your largest foot is at 9, take a 9.
-If you have wide feet, take the next .5 size up. For example, if your widest foot measures an 9.5 E or 2E (aka EE) you will want a size 10.
-If you have really wide feet such as 3E or higher, Foams are not for you (or most Nikes for that matter).

wow! +1
 
I actually have had my foot measured at the end of the day once before, I was told that I am size 10 D, but regular widths feel tight often, so I guess it would be wise to snag a 10.5 in these.  I ordered a pair of Nike free run IDs and went with the wide and they fit great, whereas dunk sb and AF-1 feel great normal size/width.  Thanks again!
 
I've never understood going a half size up in different shoes from the same brand
I wear a 13 in all nike products and yes foams are tighter than other shoes when you first get them but once you relace them or wear them 3-5 times they give and feel more comfortable.
 
I don't know what's not to understand. Different models are designed differently and therefore fit differently - most often, width-wise. I'm a natural 9. In some models I can go all the way down to 8.5 and the shoe will fit - AF1 lows, most Jordans. In a shoe like the Air Trainer 1, I can fit up to a 10.5.
 
also, do remember that these shoes are made by human so theres is a low percentage of error.

I feel you bro. I found a dude selling them for $290 so I pulled the trigger. Needless to say this will render me useless this coming SAt for the 13's. This will be my first pair of foams and I went with the same size I used with my jordans
