Lakai shoe sizing weird af

[JumpManShorty]

Yo guys can someone help me out?

I want to buy the Larry Junes and support the dude (you guys should have a listen if you dont know him) but looking at the lakai size chart it looks fucked.

I usually wear a 7 in vans which is 25 cms on the label. when a 7 in lakais is like 26.5 cm. According to the size chart in like a 5 in lakai sizing lol.

Can someone rocking them help me out?

[bbk]

I wear tts 9 in lakai, and they're 27 cm, so no, 7 in Lakai is not 26.5. They are 25, you'll be fine.

You're sure your not confusing US with UK sizing?

Nah... The dangerous ones are NB# and Cons.

To me Adidas sizing seems off. To my Adidas friends Nike sizing seems off.

Moral of the story is there really is no standard and TTS is a misleading term.

No, you are correct that Adidas sizing is off. Just look at their size chart, the increments between sizes aren't even equal. At least Nike has the same increments between sizes.

I went to Lakai's shoe size chart and it told me my foot size is "puerco". WTF?

Vans,Emerica, lakai, they all fit me true to size,
Cons is absolutely trash when it comes to sizing and no matter what size you pick in new balance, everything is just small

Adidas is the worst offender hands down.
Lakai, vans and Sole tech all fit tts for me

I love Adidas but they do not fit me right. I got small feet... 7.5 kills my toes but 8 is loose on the heel. Nike I wear 8. Vans I wear 7.5. Emerica 7.5. Lakai ... 7.5 unless XLK, then 8.

Bummer for me is I don't/ can't wear adidas. Unless it's the superstar. Their skate shoes are a no for my feet unless they start making a 7 and 3/4

I also have the narrow heel, and after years of abuse,  now I have a wide forefoot. Use the joggers lace. Some heel cupping pad inserts, and stop worrying about your shoes fitting you ‘perfectly’. Your feet will (imo of course) be very grateful once you size up, and you will get used to it. I just wear whatever is closest, but err on the side of too big. Been very helpful

100% adidas is a try on in shop purchase only. I've ordered a bunch online and from model to model it's all fucked up.

Nike and Vans is a true 12. Adidas could be an 11-13 ffs.

I’m currently skating the Viceland Newport collab shoe. They’re true to size.
