dragicon dragicon and...well, everyone else...

I'm a true 14. I don't mind extra toe room. Will I be okay going TTS on the '79 tailwinds, or is a 13 really necessary?

Edit: FWIW, I don't have much experience with these older models...but a size 14 Cortez is too small for me.

For me;
Waffle racer 9
Cortez 9.5
Tailwind 8.5 (I can fit an 8, but it’s tight)

I think you’d be fine with the 14, especially if you don’t mind the extra length.
 
Clutch reply...I ordered these late Saturday and now they're sold out. I just liked the CW. I'm guessing they sold out because Ls will be handed out on those sacai things (or fake sellout).

Hoping Tailwinds go one sale soon. Still wouldn't mind the white pair.
 
what's with all these lame collabs with the "give me a flat tire" designs? :lol:
 
^ hot garbage.
I have an affinity for trash.

Undercover's SFB Mountains recently died a quick death on the shelves. Still I ordered a pair of Team Oranges to try out, before I decide on these and the Be Trues.
