I tried the year of the monkey cw, better fit for me going half size down. But when i tried the road cw it feels really snug for me going tts. But in my opinion the yotm is more comfortable than the woven/textile upper road/home cw.
I noticed that heel slip issue also when i saw my teammate wearing the allstar cw in our league, but it doesnt affect his performance. I'm thinking to get one but i want other cw's.
i tried this going half size down from 9.5 to 9. Yup my toe is touching the tip of the shoe but i think going half size down is good just give some time to break it in.
