      @@CustomFeensI used to go TTS then when I wanted to get a certain colourway they didn’t have my size but they had the size down, tried it and it fit basically perfectly for my feet. But my feet are weird, it’s flat but it’s also relatively skinny and basically has no shape, the best way I can describe it is that my foot is shaped like a shoe if that makes sense, more specifically an AF1 type of shoe. So going the size down didn’t affect comfort much. It just felt a bit snug in the first few wears but once broken in it’s hella comfy

    They dont crease well because Nike uses the lowest quality leather material, strips it thin and then coats it with a plastic embossed layer to create the leather-pattern.
    These are incredibly low quality shoes that shouldn't cost more than $35 USD but are ridiculously marked-up because of the hype.
