I wore my infrared 12s for the first time for an extended period of time.. Im wearing them rather loose and they are staying on my feet nicely. They did happen to fall asleep and possibly cramp on me. At one point, some forefoot pain. But all of it seemed to go away at some point in time.. Not sure if its me adjusting to the shape and make of the shoe and if itll get better or worse. But I would maybe try to keep a 13 just in case..Originally Posted by DJ Proto J

Since I actually paid $20 less on both 13s, it's tough for me to want to sell those or not even accept them, and then try for some 12s @ $130.. Call me stubborn or a sucker for a deal but I can't change habit.. Now is definitely the time to figure out your true size and go with that.. If not, I would definitely NOT not get them if they fit a bit too big It's better to have something than nothing at all.
i haven't tried on the 12's yet, but the 13's are slipping on my heel pretty bad, even when i have a wearable shoe tree in them.
part of the reason it does that is cuz i lace loose, i already know that, but when i slide my foot all the way up to the edge of the toe box i can see a good bit of room at the back. giving the buttery feel of this leather, it's gonna stretch some, and so i'm hoping even if a 12 is snug at first, it'll eventually give for me. i'll just wear thin socks if i have to.
is anyone else gonna use wearable shoe trees with these? do they crease pretty badly (i know some of you like that look, haha)...
I actually started this thread as a petition for Nike to bring back the trainer sc II, changed it once the first samples hit in 2010, and then just changed it again the other dayOriginally Posted by mints
I want back to the first page and started reading through the thread, I was really trying to figure out when the title got changed, but it's pretty wild to see it go from a Do it Right to ughh did you see what they're putting an Auto sole on to They're coming to ughh they're terrible quality and not in the OG colors to WHOA.
So many ups and downs. I'm glad this one is going out on a high note.
Quick question now is, does anyone have a high-res version of the Do It Right image that was posted several times early on?

12.5s would literally be perfect, so we are in a unique position.. If you can get that 1/2 size up, you may be PERFECT.. Staying true to size may have some initial issues but could stretch. Full size up may be perfect to wear and throw an arch support in.. So either way you look at it, don't miss out on these over some "size" issues... that goes for everyone.
