Tts or size up?
TTS (9.5). Fits like a dream (the smallest bit "snug", but the PK should loosen like NMDs)
I haven't been paying too much attention to shoes after missing all the Nike "Air Max 1 day" drops but came across a pair of SF-AF1 Mid black/hazel in my size at my local Nike outlet.
Tried them on and they fit like a dream so I'm keeping them but I was surprised to see them hidden away in a corner of an outlet.

any fans of Vans in here?
Personally hate them.
It always gets recommended as a good back to school shoe, cause its cheap, and visually versatile.
Just get a chuck taylor or a one star.

I like'em, but it depends on the style.
My most recent vans purchase is the opening ceremony X Vans Qi pao gold. It's fucking gaudy as shit and I love it. The gold threads really pop.

want to get a new pair of vans for the fall, narrowed it down to true white authentic or true white old skool.

You sure you want all white shoes for the fall?

I'm a fan, but not as dedicated to them as other brands. I do have a few pairs of Old Skools (Toy Story Woody, Charlie Brown & black/white) though.
I've had a love/hate relationship with the slip-ons as when I was younger, getting them to fit right was a pain due to being unsure about the sizing but now I do like a few pairs.

Climacool seems pretty redundant with Primeknit being a thing, no? Plus you lose out on the form fitting aspect of the knit now that we're back to mesh.

Primeknit makes your feet real fucking sweaty.
Trust me on this.

These are nice.
Negative. Everyone's feet is different.
Thick socks, wore my ultraboost uncaged all day. Dry feet.
Does the opposite for me
wear less thick cotton socks?

One day in my Uncaged's without socks trotting about London and they stunk. They are ok with socks but I'm not wearing them without again. Thought I'd fucked them straight away. I do like PrimeKnit though. They seem much more durable than flyknit. My toes were through the end of my fly knit Air Max 1 within three month.

Post impressions when you get them. Ive been eyeing a pair for ages.
Yea especially with material that would soak up all your sweat.

Will do. I had been admiring them for a long time too, and I was just randomly looking at what everyone had for Aimé Leon Dore 'cause I just bought a jacket by them, and Notre had them for almost 70% off with only my size left, so it was an instant cop.
I ordered the Sunset cw but I'll most likely return them unless the color surprises me irl. Just wanted to try the fit on them before the most wanted black/white colorway drops.

I wear my white Inikis without socks all the time. Zero issues.

These are nice. They're like if AF1 and Chelsea boots had a baby. I like them.

It's not wearing socks that's the problem for me. But i see that i'm the exception in this case.

As someone who owns Flyknit and Primeknit sneakers (both performance and lifestyle), the ventilation is pretty good on both of them. It's YMMV more than anything.
If my order for the core black UBs gets cancelled again (from sportchek this time), then I might try to cop either the midcuts sometime when better colourways get released (personal thing, I'm not a fan of beige sneakers), or wait on the 2nd black UBs or maroon that is scheduled to release September 15th.
If that fails, I think the sneaker gods just don't want me to own an ultra boost.

The Air Jordan 32s were officially unveiled yesterday, y'all.
The Rosso Corsas will be released on September 23rd and the two Breds will be released on "MJ Day", October 18th. Thoughts? I'm not too sold on the design: I can definitely see the influence of the 2s in these and I'm not a big fan of 2s lol...
Out of them all, I do prefer the Rosso Corsas. I wish the Low Breds were high and the normal Breds to have red bottoms, not icy ones.
I'll probably feel differently when seeing people wear them.
