anyone know if adidas trainers sizes are made big or small ?

[builder22]

like, if u normally take a size 10 with reebok what size would you take with adidas shoes ?

I wanna buy some online but cant remember last time I bought adidas!

 

[bledd]

I just blindy order 10 in all shoes

The size that fits me after trying them in a shop or order a couple of pairs and send back the wrong ones

a 10...

a shoe size is a shoe size , there is certain standards that they comply too.

well assuming they are both UK sizes and not a completely different style of shoe

 

[Morba]

But that's like expecting a standard in all clothes sizing, which clearly does not exist.
The op is right that some different trainers feel different even though they are the same size

Adidas are very 'standard' sizes from my experience. Fred Perry shoes on the other hand are pretty much a whole size bigger in reality than their number size suggests.

there isnt unified standards for clothes sizes though !

I thought tape measures were fairly standardised

At least one person in there will know as most seem to have about 10 pairs of Adidas

I used to find that they were a wider fit, but recently i am finding them narrow fit. Go to a shop and try on the ones you want, then buy them online

I find that my adidas size 8 feel tighter than most of my other size 8's.

but one companys 'large' can be one measurement and anothers can be a different measurement ?

cant say ive ever had problems with waists or legnths not being the measurement they claim to be

the differences that make them not fit will surely be in the shape and tailoring ?

You'd think so.

yeah but have you tried jogging with a tape measure on your feet?

Different sizing across brands:

...it is only a simple marketing method that encourages customers to be loyal to a specific shoe brand.

I have a pair of size 13 Adidas trainers, and my feet are size 11

 

[danza]

My feet are size 11 in almost all trainers. I have at least 6 pairs of Adidas, 4 of which are 11s, and they're all fine. I have some 10s which are a bit too small, and some 11.5s which are fine (I have 3 pairs of Adistar 80 in different colours, 2 of which are 11, one pair is 11.5).

I have found that mens jeans, which are advertised in sizes of inches, to not all be equal around the waist.
