I have a pair of PBs in their 'wider' fit. They're pretty narrow.
But otherwise true to size. UK 8.5 like all my other UK shoes.
Cheers Bop/Moose/Baby.. F&M did indeed have some.. but only up to a size 9.. I jog on in Robert Parker mode therefore.. Thee quest continues..
a question regarding the converse 70 reissues: how do they run size wise compared to the regular chucks? should i size up/down? or do they run true to size? i am usually a us9.5 but in the regular chucks i wear a us8.5. any help is appreciated!
stanshall, thanks for your input. i saw those fit suggestions as well and i pulled the trigger on a 8.5. i'll keep you posted!
/\ good memory BB, unfortunately I couldn't get the fit right on the Cortez and I had to return them, which was galling because they looked good on me when I was marching about the house trying them on .....
the summer of '16 saw me order and return too many pairs of N!kes, including a couple of pairs of Roshes which Bop and Doghouse turned me on to, which looked great but rubbed me raw .....
currently my N!ke holdings include several good t-shirts, a couple of pairs of slides, and a couple of pairs of vintage ACG hiking boots (in great condition, fortunately)
their customer service has been great, I just wish their sneakers fit me better ..... I never used to have problems with them .....
I'm still after some good Dunks ......
If you go to the oi polloi website you should be able to see Incontinence pants' remake of an old german army plim...I'm not completely taken by them but they are interesting..
Oh here's the official page

/\ I saw those German Army Incontinence pants when they came out here a month or two ago, they looked good, but you know, the association left me a bit cold ... design-wise I liked them ......

Nice, I run a bit myself but get tendonitis, probably brought on by cycling and not stretching enough, then running and pulling my calf muscles.
I used to wear their fell shoes when running for the school back in the 80s.
Remember when Oliver, who insisted that all things in his life be retro, caused severe damage to his feet by going out running in vintage Keds? ....
He was a cracker, shame we don't hear anything from him anymore. It seems from his FB page that he's heavily into politics and campaigning on social issues and probably can't be bothered with trivia like clothes. ..... he seems to be into some sort of communist ideaology - mid century retro politics I guess!
