For some reason I only like the 2013 version. Maybe if I did try the old ones it might be true to size like you said. Also I wear Melo M9 in size 8.5. I think my true size is a 8.75 if it existed..lol
Interesting!!! But my Dirty Breds feel perfect in 8.5. It feels like a glove to me. Also I wonder if your socks play a major role as I like thinner type socks.
If you naturally wear a size 9 for instance you can buy a size 8.5. I buy both size 9 and 8.5 but my natural size is 9. It will feel a lil roomy with your regular size and glove-like if you go .5 down.
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only person crazy about the XIII's!!! Looking at your 14 XIII's lets me know I need 12 of them in all. I can do without the Wheats and 05 Grey Toes. Everything else is on my radar so I need 3 more!
I guess I'm part of the 3% on the poll. Got all 4 XIIIs. Now I can go back to being cheap until new XIIIs drop..lol. I hope they give us some more Mids again though.
