I actually ordered my true size which is 10.5 and they fit just fine but then again I'm using force fields to help you out a little more i bought a sz10 in cements and those fit perfect so I would say go true size

the elephant options arent the same as last time though. i still had my supremes in my email and pulled them up and they are different than the "tonal" elephant offered now.

i went and always go a half size down on iDs. mine came in and they were still a bit big.

My creation. Nitro Underground Inspired.

 

[itsaNYthing]

I've always wore a half-size smaller in AF1s. They feel more comfortable to me with a snugger fit. I'm a 10.5 in AF1s and an 11 in everything else.

 

[buttons mcboomboom]

I went with these

 

[panaricanretro]

Really liking those up there. Deciding between one of two options, really not sure which one to go with. I can only cop one pair this time around because of all the other stuff coming out, but one of them doesn't use any of the elephant print or tennis ball options, I just think I should jump on it before it disappears...
I'm caught between the obvious wheat nubuck timberland inspired pair (gonna switch boot laces into these...)

Or the fire-red 3 inspired ones....

 

[mfpearson]

the nubuck wheat inspired pair is FRESH if you ask me... i didn't even think about making those, but i like them a lot.
went ahead and ordered another pair so i didn't regret it - i can always return one pair if i decide i went overboard.  first pair was the navy cement twists, this one is black cement infrareds:

 

[instapump]

Will this 2nd option of elephant print be limited to 750 as well?

i completely agree.  get the wheat inspired pair.  it's just a shame that they don't offer that dark cinder for the soles that you used for the lining... that would look much better than gum soles, in my opinion.  i would also maybe do a pecan or dark cinder midsole with those, instead of white.
718 - i like those infrareds a lot - i think that infrared color looks awesome with both white and black.

doesn't look like anyone is using the black tennis ball option, and only about half are using the monster green tennis ball option... i hope nike stops offering cement/elephant print after this drop, though.

Ohh nah, not like that @ all.
 
I'm mad 'cause I wanna create 2 more pairs.

The black/black tonal elephant print was what I originally wanted from the jump, and I was sad when it wasn't available first time around.
 
I can't be copping every time AF1s get re-upped with a new material.

Yeah, I think I'm leaning towards those wheats anyway.  I think the Fire Red thing was just to make use of the elephant print and my fire-red III's are absolutely trashed. 
I messed around with the pecan midsole but with that gumsole I prefer the white midsole.  Thanks for the input guys.

Was there any pics of samples that had the Cool Grey elephant print? Would like to see how it actually looks vs the rendering on the site.

 

[mr718]

Came today

 

[davecfprez]

Ordered this pair this morning. First time for me splitting up the panel colors, as I usually like to have solid color linked panels. I have a pair of the high top tennis balls, and after looking at the "felt" material I went with the black, as the volt color seems to pick up dirt/dust/general yuck too easily. Went with just a bit of the elephant print, as I've seen a lot of the recent AF1 id's that od'd on the E print!

The selling point for me was the clear soles, and the grey laces - which seem to me, make thed pair look "expensive."

 

[buttons mcboomboom]

^ Pair is nice. Good choice.

 

[chuionthis]

Is there just going to me more and more options each month???
