Title: Syndicates and regular half cabs (wideness and fit)
Post by: psychedtodie on May 13, 2018, 04:37:55 PM
Hello. I recently ordered a pair of half cab pros only to realize they are less wide than regular ones. They are uncomfortable because of that.

Anyone know how close the syndicates are to normal half cabs in terms of how the shoes fit?

I can only find syndicates in the size I'm looking for.

I want that nice half cab comfort.

Thanks.

Syndicates ran small from memory ... I always rocked a 0.5 size up

either syndicates or pro models always go half size up for that comfort you're talking about

Hmph, dangit.
I do purchase one size up for the comfort, but in the case of the pros they were too thin, so the length was fine but the sides felt like they were squeezing.

Thanks for the general info in syndicates. Not looking for just-fits. Looks like I wont be gambling my feelings by ordering any online.
