Size & Material Tips
Most sneakers run true-to-size for US sizing, but basketball shoes often run slightly narrow. If you have wide feet, go up 0.5 size. Leather pairs stretch slightly over time; mesh and knit pairs do not. Always cross-check the batch-specific size chart before submitting.
Who Should Buy Shoes
First-time buyers, sneaker collectors, and anyone looking for daily wear replacements. If you are building a rotation, shoes are the fastest way to build a balanced collection.
