I think I might have made the right choice by going a 1/2 size up on these.... That pic from @pdot09 base accent on the 247 Tokyo Rats is all wrinkled and scrunched up!

^^^Yea, I think it may be an issue with the sock like feature of the model. I'll just have to deal with it[emoji]128528[/emoji].
More reference pics for wide feet (including my feet)

Thanks for the info. I have a pretty narrow foot. You think with these Tokyo Rat I could get away with half size up?

^^^i have about 1/2inch of wiggle room in the toe area. If you have narrow feet, TTS would've been good. For example, I am naturally a sz10, but I got these in a 10.5 based on NB suggestion. If you are a true 10.5, you'll be able to play it off.

Dang
I should have held off a little longer, I had a 10.5 in my cart off the Blends link, but I didnt want to buy the sneaker twice, so i let someone else eat. Yeah I'm a true 10 / 10.5, looks like I might be swimming in these joints a bit then.
Thanks for the 411!

Keep missing the tokyo rats.

Congrats to those who scored. I had sport pack in hand and was not impressed. Maybe the Luxe pack or the Rats but nothing special...IMO the ML2016 is a WAY better shoe!
Seriouisly...a dope shoe in person ML2016. Quality Quality Quality! And SUPER comfort!! Memory foam insoles!! I went TTS...When the white leather with perf collor goes on sale I'm gonna cop
Side note: 577 Pigeons both White & Grey VNDS all OG...what is a CRAZY price what is a Homie Price? And shucks..what is a Fair price?

Genuinely surprised by the love that the 247 Mita Collab is getting. Think they're a dope shoe, just had no idea people were gettin' jiggy with the model. Thought everyone hated them, lol.
I can only imagine what it'll be like when Concepts does a collab on the 247

i think most people, myself included, love the cw but are skeptical about the model. So they decided to give them a shot. I personally wouldn't have copped if I couldn't return them. I just know no matter how dope they look, model is gonna dossipoinfGenuinely surprised by the love that the 247 Mita Collab is getting.

Been looking myself and I haven't seen any place with them. I saw one pair on eBay in 8.5 if I can recall.

Definitely. I don't think it was a coincidence.
