Hey guys I need sizing help. I typically wear a size 12 in retro Jordan’s but I ran into an issue with a size 12 Cap & Gown in that it’s a bit too small. In fact my toes hurt after walking in them for a short period of time. Well I tried a size 13 Platinum Tint now and it’s a bit too big. They tend to slide on my heel some.
So could anyone tell me was there a sizing difference from the Win Like Pairs, to the Cap & Gowns, vs the Platinum Tint. I feel like a 12.5 would suit me but obviously I want to get some opinions if you guys notice any size differences.
The one thing I've personally observed about the XI model is that some XI releases tend to be inconsistent in terms of going TTS. I'm a size 14 and go TTS all the time... oddly, TTS fits perfectly for me. The EXCEPTION for me is the Gamma XI model. It had that same problem you had, where the toe box crushes your foot.
The general consensus about sizing for the XI on this board is you should go up half a size...However, as you'll notice, I don't even think JB makes 12.5s and so on for the big feet fellas.
