Air Jordan Retro Sizing.

I thought I was going crazy for a moment. Another example is my DMP black/red 7s(size 11) are a bit big but my Oly 7s(size 10.5) fit just right! Same with the Oreo VI's. I didnt know to get a size 11 or 10.5. I went with the 11 and they are a bit big. Maybe they are making retro's wider for people with fatter feet. Idk. It seems wierd to me.
 
how old are you? my feet shrank a whole size in my twenties. my og bred xi were size 10 and they were tight and molded to my foot. my 09 jams are size 9 and they are comfortable, and i can fit in extra full length zoom in them.

I'd rather my shoe be comfortable more than anything else. I can fit 11.5 without too much discomfort

but i rather buy a 12 and it fit a lil roomy. I have a wide foot and 11.5 in JB is perfect length wise

but kinda snug width wise. I buy double cushion socks anyways which helps my kicks fit nice.

JB seems to be making their new retros a lil bit wider and 1/4 size longer. I personally like the new sizing for comfort.

yeah true that, it's focused more about the comfort nowadays, just the way I like it.
Right now everything I own is a size 13, anything lower than that size was already gone for the past couple of months.
It actually excites me more for future releases 'coz I don't have to worry about the sizing/etc/ since this is what they're trying to aim for.

having wider feet, i don't have this problem. i've noticed what everyone is saying in this post and do agree. my vi's in the white/vr and oreo colorway fit with a little more room when compared to my black/infared from '00 and carmines. i'm cool with it. the only retro's i have to upsize in are the iv's and xi's due to the shape they make now compared to the og's. i don't know if i'm the only one who has this problem in my size range, which is 11.5.

Yeah, I've had similar issues. The retro XII's and VI I had to go a .5 size down, whereas the retro IX fit true. I like my shoes to fit like a glove.

So the XIII's run big? I have narrow feet.

XIIIs do run a lil big, not enough to size down IMO though. The front of the toe box is a lil wider thanthe average Retro. I felt my CDP XIIIs fit the same as these new XIIIs so I'm not shocked at all.

Question: I'm normally a size 12, but my connect only has an 11 and a 13 on the CGXI's. Which one should I go for?
