Who’s enjoying their pair of Lakai Carroll re-issues ? How’s the fit ?
I’m about to order a pair.
I have the black/blue pair and they feel good! Comfortable but not too squishy/floppy. It feels like a cupsole but it's not too hard and rigid for a cupsole, either. They feel secure on my foot and I don't tie them super tight to feel that way. I'd say TTS but some people feel like they need to go 0.5 size up. I order the same size as I do in the Atlantic and Proto that I tried last year, which is a similar but slightly narrow fit (in my opinion). Have you had any Lakai cups in the past?
My last pair of Lakai’s were either Biebel’s first pro shoe or the Carroll 4 bubs in black leather, so it’s been about 13-14 years since i’ve put my foot in a Lakai.
I have to factor in an ankle brace and my narrowish foot. If it helps:
My 9.5 NB 288’s are perfect for walking and chilling, but too narrow for my brace and a 10 feels too long. In DC (which has been my go-to for 10 or so years) i’m a 10 for pretty much everything except 9.5 when they made the Wes Kremer vulc shoe. Kalis OG’s feel quite wide for me at 10, but too short at 9.5. Kalis lites feel a bit short at 10. My Emerica Reynolds G6 were 9.5 and felt fine. Adidas: nothing fits properly in any size except for the Busenitz in 10.
