Size help pls! Im looking to get a pair of Drose 1s and 1.5s but I dont know whether to get an 8 or an 8.5. I have a pair of bounce commanders in an 8 and a pair of supernatural creators in an 8.5. I usually wear an 8 in nikes (kobe 4s and 5s).I usually like my balling sneakers to be a bit snug but not to the point where I cramp up (happened last tues with size 8 hyperfuse).
The 1.0 are a tighter fit. You can go TTS for snug fit or .5 size up and still be good. The 1.5's are TTS.

I would advise to go same size as the creators, the fit is similar on both shoes.

Where you playing today Frog?
Playing at this outdoor court near Parkland Hospital here in Dallas. It's fully covered with sheet metal and even has lights. I loved playing their last summer. Court is a bit dusty but it just has a good feel to it. PM if you'd like to run. Also, WAN- I know you're in Texas and if you're nearby just PM me. We'll get something organized SOLE COLLECTOR STYLE since spring is near.
My 1.5's took a pounding. Felt good on the forefoot outdoors but the green suede is took a beating and a piece tore off haha
