Just in time for winter

Lmao right? Like what an odd time to release them

Let’s pray they have consistent sizing on these ones.

And don't shrink in heat, lol although it's winter so hopefully should be okay

So hard to get, I don’t even look at the slides anymore. After 600 raffles still nothing

I hold onto that 1% chance :(

Sizing? I've heard you need to order a full size larger than your normal size, is that true? If not I'm fucked on the Pures I just bought
3
Yeah pretty much you have to size up, usually a full size yeah. They run small and they'll shrink in certain circumstances like heated environments for example

Thanks for the info!

These look nice. Are slides comfy?

Sizing is an issue. I’m a Uk 7.5. Slides come in full sizes only. Size 8 was extra small on my foot and size 9 wasn’t much better. Many say full size up to nearest whole size and that feels like 2 sizes up for someone like me with wide feet !?
2
Hmm so I’m a 13.5 normally in yeezy 350s so I would need maybe 14 or 15? Wow
2
I have wide feet. What I’m seeing in my case is a whole 2 sizes up minimum from the size I take in 350 v2 (which I have in size 8). And even then I have doubts that I can wear a size 10 with socks so I’ll be targeting sizes 10 and 11 going forward.

So. I just tried an experiment with Adilette Slides (made in Italy variants). Tried out size 10 and size 11. Size 10 fits with no socks but still a little snug - but with socks, they’re a bust. Size 11 fits well with no socks - and perfect with socks on. So I’ll be going for size 11 - I.e. a whole three sizes up on my yeezy 350 v2 size. Now why adilette slides ? Because I took it back to what other adidas product sizing is wildly off / under - adilette slides. And no coincidence that they’re also slides !? This also fits the trending of YouTube reviewers who tell you to size up at least one whole size after your nearest half size.

Thanks for checking! This is good information so it will penalty be safe to go for 15 then. Those will penalty be huge but at least I’ll know I will fit in it

Are the slides made from the same material as foam runners?
1
From my understanding, no. Foam Runners are made of pond algae foam. Slides are made of boost foam. However, these look like they may be made of the same material as the Foam Runners. I guess we will find out more closer to the drop.
3
I don’t think sides are made from boost foam. Do you have a source for this?
1
No, just remember hearing it somewhere, but they probably aren’t considering the boxes I have for my slides don’t say Boost. But I am almost certain that the foam runners and slides are not made out of the same foam.
2
Ok. I have read neither slides nor runners are boost foam. They are different to each other also in their make up / foam type.
1
Also. What’s your sizing like with the slides you have?
1
It sort of looks like foam runner material yeah

Interesting. Looks like a different texture too
Hoping I hit on these as my first slides. Haven't been able to get a pair yet, slides for Winter baby let's goooooo
New pattern and texture, I can't speak for the texture yet myself since I have yet to get a pair. Seems more grainy(?) Than the others, idk
