HUARACHE LE RETRO 30th anniversary release this year???

Went to try to grab the blue hero's this weekend and they didnt have a pair in 11.5+ in MD at FL or Champs. Dont see them online at FL or Champs either.
 
I'm a 12 and needed 1/2 size up but 12.5's are non-existent in most retro shoes. I went for a 13 in the Black's and they will work.
 
Sizing must be all over the place with these.  

That said, I've tried on all 3 that are out in U.S. stores and a half size up feels fine in all of them.

I think some people who haven't ever worn a pair are expecting these to fit like a pair of Air Max.  These joints are supposed to hug your feet and not fit loose.  


This.

Yeah I know these are supposed to be a snug fit but the pairs I've copped tts have had my toes in pain. I wear my airmax 90's & 1's fairly snug. Hoping the Hero's fit the same as the Blacks on me.

Anyone know if footaction or what other spots in NYC sill have the cool grey's in stock ?.
 
thank you for whoever mentioned the bday coupon... i was able to get my grey pair today. they didn't have my size on the black ones but the SA from champs was able to order them and have them delivered to my house
 
Yo, has anyone had difficulty with the birthday coupons?  

Buddy at Champs wouldn't let me use it because it had to be linked to my account email or phone number (I didn't have an account).  He still gave me 20% off so they were $84 after tax, but in the past I've never had an issue like that.  I used to just show them the coupon, they'd punch in the code and I was good.  Did they change something recently?

Sizing is very wacky.

And yeah, I think some lost track of the idea that they're supposed to hug your feet.

Word.  Dude had to be 45-40 years old.  Probably the manager.  Should've checked out with the broad with pink hair.  

Glad to know it isn't some new policy though.

Heres some background on the shoe to people new to them but Ive worn +.5 to 1.5 in them over the yrs and they all fit the same... Ive tried TTS as well but didnt work for me

If they were making these with the same leather, same neoprene, and same quality control and attention to detail then all that hug your foot stuff would make sense because the leather would stretch a little and the shoe would mold to your foot in one or two wears but these are 2014 retros. While they might not be as bad as some retro quality, the materials are much less forgiving than when they were designed. I'll try on scream greens when they drop but from the cool grey sizing in guessing I'll have to go a full size up.

Yaaaas! Happened to be in Glasgow last week and they had a limited size restock. Delighted!
 
Scream greens!!! Haven't been this excited for a retro release in a LONG time. Multiple pairs will be mandatory. I foolishly sold my only pair last year due to sole separation.
