    Hi all,

    So I got myself a pair of the Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit 3 runners in the Nike sale a few days ago. Paid just over €100 when they are €210 full price so not bad.

    Ordered them in 8.5 and while I have plenty of room around my toes they feel quiet narrow and tight around the laces. I got a pair of VaporMax a few years ago with similar material and have them in size 9. I decided to get these in 8.5 as I have most shoes in 8 (for example Air Force) and some 8.5 if they are known as small fitting. I looked it up in advance and saw it was recommended to go up half a size so that’s what I did.

    I’m worried now I should have gotten them in 9. I’m read some people suggest they expand after a few wears but I’m afraid they might be too tight. Should I return them and order it in 9 to be safe? The VaporMax I have in 9 isn’t too big or anything but just had thought the 8.5 would be the better fit.

    If anyone with these runners could advise what I should do that would be great.

    Thanks.

    That’s a good shout actually. My only fear is the size 9 will be gone by then and this is probably the last time they will be available.
