Same for me last Thursday. Thats why I'm not messing with FTL or they're partner stores till things are back to normal. Kept my loot for over 2 weeks.

So you guys really telling me these fit different from the 2013s? I may grab a 12 but I usually wear a 11-11.5

No. They fit like every 5 I've ever had haha. Not sure why people keep saying that.

No worries. Let dudes walk around in shoes that are too tight if they wish. These are definitely TTS.

You just need to try to them on For yourself. I went half a size up and they were comfortable. Almost felt rommy around the toe area. The toe area of the sneaker creased easily. If you go true to size it’s more of a lock down fit but my toes don’t hurt, no creasing. The Metallics felt different not sure if it was the material but when I went a half size up it had that lockdown fit. Once again everyone’s feet are different.

Thanks! I may cop the 12, but there's an 11 for 20 bucks more....

This is the type of shoe that I feel like both TTS and .5 down works. You can't go wrong with either or (personal preference). If im just sitting on my chair and slipping my foot into my TTS just to see if it fits really quick , in my head yeah it fits. When I really start walking with it during the day, thats when you realize sometimes its a little looser than you thought. I went .5 down on these for more of a secure fit, I think theyre very slightlyyyy more roomier than your average imo. Maybe not enough to warrant going down for others so I can see the TTS comments. What really boggles me....are the people saying they are going up half a size.......lol.

Everybody has a different foot. I'm a TTS 9.5 and 9.5 on every other AJ. I bought a 9 and 9.5, and I preferred the fit of the 9.

For me personally my size 11 still fits me pretty good.. But I did try one of these on with a 2016 pair on the other foot and these fit slightly bigger in the toe. Just an FYI.

Wow, look at the difference in that toebox construction.

same here w/ 10 and 9.5
always wore 10 in Nikes and even in prior Vs
tried both sizes for these and like the 9.5 better
no pain or tightness after wearing them all day and they're not broken in yet
some acting like it's impossible to be between half sizes
i agree that if you're in doubt just get your TTS
i could've made a 10 work if i needed to

The BM toe box is actually more of the correct rand shape. It's not supposed to be so short like these FRs; it's supposed to be slanted. BMs didn't have the fully correct slant, but with these FRs they just made the cut shorter instead of trying to get the slant right. Toe box shape doesn't look good to me at all. Interesting how some think that looks right. These aren't 3s where that rand is supposed to be so much thinner than we've been getting, despite having a slant or not.
Google images of vintage 5s and you'll see. Don't mistaken the height of that cut with the slant.

Yeah the correct is somewhere between the two we've gotten.

I'm an OG purest snob when it comes to details but the newer toe style on these FR's is 1000x's better IMO. The bigger toe rand looks terrible and reminds me of a Jack Purcell almost.
This is probably the only deviation from an OG that I approve of.

I'm just deciding between the 2 pairs I have. 11.5 and 11. If I don't want the 11 I'll let you know. I'd want retail in Canada - which is what I paid, plus shipping to you.

Finally got around to doing an updated Nike Air family pic. Still missing Black/White Cement 4s but I'm content with what I have. Still gotta get a second pair of Metallics too but the prices are getting insane.
