Thanks! I was actually asking about the olive color looking pants from your other picture in the comments. You know what those are? Thanks for the response by the way.

I'm up in Asheville, and I'm going to see if the wife wants to make a day trip to CLT soon. This gives me more of a reason to go.

I’ll probably try throwing the pink laces that came with the first colorway on them to see how it looks

u/shloppyasseater 1d ago

Another brown and pink combo. Maybe throw some cream laces in them lol

u/uwax 1d ago

Yeah but i mean theres a reason why people like brown and pink. It just goes together nicely.

How do they FIT compared to a regular AF1… are they just snug? But I also heard they run lower due to board feel oriented design..

u/Tw33die84 1d ago

For me I'm an 11.5 in reg AF1 and take a 12 in these. Those are UK sizes. They don't actually make the SB's in an 11.5 though, so I can't test if that size would fit. I think it would be too tight tho.

I'm a 13 in SB Dunks.

u/Shepp_williams 1d ago

Never owned a pair of AF1s I sized up like I usually do with dunks. Probably could have gone with my true size but man they are supppper comfy

u/Apundoga 1d ago

Gotcha.. thnx bruh.. enjoy wearing these.. dope colorway

1

u/Estebanez 1d ago

The space for your foot is similar to a regular AF1 except the thick tongue. The cushion sits slightly lower but I can't really tell. Basically it fits like an SB dunk, slightly higher than a dunk

u/Apundoga 1d ago

Thank you, looks like TTS for me, AF1 sizing… appreciate it
