Nike Lebron 9 Retro

I lined these up as close as I can. Trying to match them up evenly

The landing strips are 10.5 WTT are 11.
I know it’s been discussed before but these retros are roomier in the toe vs the OGs.
What’s odd is these are 1/2 smaller and they fit practically the same. With the WTTs I can wiggle my toes just a pinch more but that difference is very negligible.
Same thing with the Chinas.

I have this weird OCD where I hate my boxes being different sizes 🙃 so I still might cop an 11 just to see how they feel then return these back to the outlets.
I was going to trim them but this pair doesn’t seem as hair as others I’ve seen.

I’m the same way bro! I want all my ball kicks to fit similarly. That’s why I was going crazy when my trinity colorway and violet frost fit way differently both in size 10.

Not sure if it’s just the picture, but the pink fur toe box definitely looks wider and rounder than the blue china one. Maybe I’ll be able to go true to size. I had a pair of elite 9 taxi in my normal size 10 that fit well with no pain or issues back in the day.

Guess I need to try and hit the outlets to find the pink joints.

after sitting for a couple hours I’m gonna just grab an 11 from StockX then take these back. It’s going to run me about the same price after tax and shipping.
I can understand how these aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. I will say in hand…..these honestly aren’t bad but not $230 good though. Nike was bugging hard 😬

I feel like if someone did shave that bush down they wouldn’t be near as bad at all.
 
On my pair it doesn’t really stick out too much but it may be different for a size 13 than it is for a smaller size.
 
No tax this time because I had it shipped to my moms house. But I agree. I’m hoping everyone who said to size up 0.5 was right. I have slightly wide feet so I wanted to be safe since stock x doesn’t allow returns.
Fees, taxes and shipping add up. Ebay >stockx

Was the 10.5 getting uncomfortable after a while?
 
Size 10.5 south coasts arrived at my moms house. Normally wear 10 in lebrons so hopefully I didn’t make a mistake sizing up based on general advice.
 
Man it's crazy to see how hard the value on the Big Bangs tanked. Size 14 under retail on StockX now. Hype cost me money...weLp no regerts
