Does anyone know if vintage Nike trainers are a tight, normal, or larger fit for their respective size?

I've noticed that old Adidas trainers are a tighter fit as I tend to wear them 1 or 2 sizes bigger, but what about Nike trainers?:S

I find nike fit true to size for the most part, Air max 1's for example fit perfectly true to size.

Thanks Woo :thumbsup:

I let an unused pair of 30 yr old trainers that I really wanted slip away as I wasn't sure they were going to fit, but i'll be better prepared next time :beer:

Yeah Nike are always quite a good fit, much better for me than Adidas as i have wide (ish) feet and some Adidas can pinch at the tow unless i go up half a size.

Still, i do love Adidas:love:

Me too Amelie :thumbsup:

I noticed with the last pair I bought this week (Adidas Munchen) that the sizes have gone weird now though. Size 9.5 UK are now classed as size 10 US, so it looks like they're out of sync with standard sizes.

Looks like Germans are using the same size chart too as their sizes are 9.5 instead of size 44 Euro
