Official Toronto - Outlet and Store report

Thought I'd provide some insight..

Without opening a huge can of worms, some shoes just don't fit everyone. Manufacturers make one shoe and you just can't expect it to fit everyone (recall the racer is was originally intended to be a running shoe for athletes). As much as you might want it, if you size up, sometimes you just make the shoe longer but its still narrow (likely the case for racers). BTW I've seen 5+ foot specialist/chiropodist to "review" a bunch of my shoes, and they all agreed the racers are pretty bad in terms of providing any form of structural support (the heel counter is non-existent as well), and wouldn't recommend it (I only wear them casually so meh

). But with that said, a lot of people buy shoes too big/small for multiple (bad) reasons (e.g. hype, styles, on sale, etc.). The way I see it, if you're gonna be on your feet wearing your shoes for any prolonged period of time, you want to be damn sure they're comfy and not gonna cause you short/long-term pain/probs).   

Furthermore, as I'm sure most people are aware, the shoe size number alone isn't very reliable. Different shoe manufacturers might be slightly off even if the number is the same. This is further complicated by wide/narrow feet. Ideally you should test the shoes for fit before you buy (I know, I know, this is nearly impossible with anything hype or if you have to buy online

).

Just my 2 cents..
repped!
 
how difficult will the flu games be to cop at yonge HoH? never had experience there.
 
So...ordered flyknit racer in 8.5...Nike sends me an 8.5 box but inside...size 7.5 shoe...couldn't be more disappointed. 

If anyone needs a 7.5...PM me...
 
This worked out, my two pairs of racers came in. I swapped the right shoe of one pair and a left of the other, now they're pretty much identical

400

I feel like what makes this colorway great is that both shoes don't look identical, but pretty cool that you stumbled on two pairs that make an almost equal pairing.

From my recent experiences... Yes you will need ID and they will give you a super hard time if you don't have an ID. If you bring more than 1 person they will also make them wait outside regardless of weather.

If you aren't interested in this weekend's releases, I would suggest going to the ES during off hours (after work thursday or friday)

They are much more relaxed on ID checks

This is debatable because I've seen some people denied because they printed out their own versions of passes and still get rejected on a WEDNESDAY MORNING... I think what you've seen could have been friends or well known customers amongst the employees.

last couple of times I've been there, they've asked for work ID at the entrance and when checking out sometimes.  I wouldn't risk it.  Better off going with your friend that got the pass in the first place.  Might be a waste of a trip if they turn you away because I've seen it happen.

Did you see a lot of the blue lagoon Flyknit Lunar 3 there still that were 99$ with additional 25% off on sale? Was contemplating going back for a 10.5 but figured everything is probably wiped clean...
