That's the conflict with the phrase "true to size". It's more about preference. My twin brother and I have the same size feet measured and all (between 10.5 and 11)but I prefer for a 10 in jordans for a tighter fit. While he prefers a size 10.5. He can fit a 10 but likes a looser fit. My "true to size is 10. My brothers "true to size" is 10.5 because these are the sizes we purchase. Your saying your tts has alot of room while my tts has zero room so i have to go to 10.5 in this particular shoe. This is why i hate the phrase "tts" because it means absolutly nothing and different for everyone.
Yeah I get what you are saying. I ended up sticking with my tts (size 8.5) even though it fit kinda tight on the width. The half size up (size 9) just had too much room in the front toe box area but the width was fine. I can fit anywhere from a size 8-9, it just all depends on the shoe. Nike's sizing is so inconsistent across the board, for example, I wear a size 8 in kobe 9s and nsw free 5.0's and I wear a size 8.5 in a majority of most of my shoes such as racers, lunar 3s, pegasus , dunks, and air jordans and I wear a size 9 in lunar 1s. I sometimes buy 2 different sizes online if I am not able to try them on at a store before I buy. I agree though, the tts phrase is based personally on preference in my opinion.
