Thanks for this I have pretty wide feet and wear the same size also. This was a reason I didn't cop because I wasn't sure about sizing so nice to know for future reference.

Here is my initial review of the shoe. I mainly buy shoes to hoop in. As for sizing, I normally wear size 10 in Nikes (Kobe 8,11) and 9.5 in adidas ( Harden vol. 2 and 3). I purchased the BB in size 10. It fit the best albeit a bit tight at first. I tried on a size 10.5 at the Nike store but it felt too long. I decided to just get size 10.
I played in these shoes for a few hours indoors. Thus far, it is decent. It's not an amazing performer. Traction/cushion is average to above average thus far.
As for positives, the shoe does seem to stretch out a bit after playing. It was really difficult to get the shoes on at first. After playing in it, I found it much easier to put on and they are pretty comfortable and snug.
As for negatives, the lateral side/pinky toe area was hurting slightly. I think the material needs to break in a bit. Overall, it was not a major issue but something I noticed.
These shoes invited a lot of questions from the other ball players so be prepared to answer questions.
Overall, despite the high price point, I think it is worth hooping in. To my knowledge, it's the first auto-lacing hoop shoe so the novelty of it is pretty neat. It's going to have some technical bugs and fit issues but I've enjoyed it so far. It performed better than I anticipated given the technology. Based on the fit getting better after wearing it, I am hopeful that the shoe will conform to my feet and it will be an enjoyable hoop sneaker.
I'll hoop in it some more and try to provide a further update.

update #2. I tried playing in these today. The left shoe would not connect to my iPhone XS Max. I could not even use the buttons on the side. On the phone, it kept saying "trying to connect to left shoe".
Luckily, I brought a 2nd pair of regular hoop shoes.
Again, the lateral side where the small swoosh is located is very tight and hurts my foot on the lateral side.
I came home and reset the shoes by holding both buttons on the side. My right shoe had 95% battery.
Very disappointing today.

Read too many reports of tts hurting here and there (side, pinky toe, etc)... I hate that kind of ish. Sticking with .5 up as suggested by Nike, for future colorways. Glad it worked out for some, though. Ye shrug.

So I returned my used pair without any problem
Chopped it up with some of the Nike managers and they all were anticipating the all black pair. Someone mentioned a high top pair might be in the works as well....

So your choice was a 12 or 13 right? Bc 12.5s are impossible to find! Your tts is 12.5?
If so, of course you wouldn’t go with a 12

Enjoy that lunch money from the goat profit

Anyone else hoping they make these compatible with the apple watch? That would make them even better IMO
