I went with my normal size and they fit fine, but I saw a lot of people around release day of the fire red 5's saying you should go .5 size down

Yeah I suppose so. I wear a 10.5 and ended up with a 10 with the fire v's and they are a little snug but definitely fit. So overall I'd say true to size but if you like a nice snug fit, go down .5.

So again it looks like the same crappy low-quality leather used on the Fire Red 5's and WC4's. As the proverb goes, 'a fool and his money are easily parted'.

Got 1 of my pairs today. Real happy with them. Compared every stitch to my 2013 Fire Reds and they are perfect. I'll grab another on release day.

Identical shoe just in different colors. The leather looks and feels the same. Sole has the exact same tint of blue. All stitching and plastic parts look the same. I am happy with em. Saves me the hassle of trying to double on RD

I'm glad the lace locks aren't red like they were on some early photos of the shoe.

So I was on the bay and was watching a pair of grapes. I got outbid, but emailed dude I'd pay $280 and he said ok.
After some back and forth, I found out he got them from sneakheat.
Are the sneakheat pairs fake or just backdoor sold from the factory?
I'll post pics when they get here.

You mean its not 3M? Thats right. Grapes did not have a 3M tongue.
Those look way off. Tongue looks like its stitched terrible. Sole looks way too light. Just looks wrong overall.

The tongue looks like it was done by a home ec class.

Them early pairs look terrible.. I don't see why dudes keep dropping that kind of money just to get shoes that look like low quality B-grades.
