IHSN-01 - Low Top Sneakers in 21oz Selvedge Indigo, 21oz Superblack, 21oz White

@emceeQ:

I wear an 11 in 70’s Chucks and just went in for an 11 in these.  Fingers crossed…

The arrived today and they fit like a dream!

I normally run 12D in sneakers (Nike, New Balance, Adidas) so I took a gamble on the 11s. Snug, but not painful. Any smaller and they would not work. Hopefully will stretch a bit with wear.

Here they are paired with the Boss Cut 463s.

Ugh, perfection. Now you’re making me want these again, Dan. I was trying to ignore their existence.

I am not a sneaker person at all. In fact, these are the only “non-boots” I own. I guess I figured if I was gonna own a pair of sneakers they might as well be IH…and so here we are 

[sabergirl]

Well, I’m glad they worked out for ya. Enjoy

Same.

The denim ones look great! Holding out for high tops though

Same here. Can't tell you how tempted I've been to grab the low-tops though.

@Giles:

I'd go 9.5…BUT to be supersafe (and as you are in the UK) we'll send you a couple of sizes and you send back the pair that does not work....

Thanks Giles, much appreciated. I’ll order now. Cheers, Paul H.

Are the size tags on the box already converted in UK sizing?  Can someone post a pic of the size tag on the box please?  Thanks

[Giles]

There's no conversion needed.  They are UK size.  What the box says is what the shoe says is what the sizing table says.  Why do you need a photo of the box?

FWIW, I just received mine in the mail (ordered both colors but not sure if keeping both yet)… my feet measure to an 8.5 on a brannock device and the 8's fit me pretty well.  For reference I wear an 8.5 in Adidas Ultra Boost, 8 in Converse Chucks, 8 in most Viberg lasts, and 8 in the Alden Barrie last.  Hope this helps!

Now just trying to figure out if I can justify keeping the indigo ones!  For sure I'm gonna be keeping the black ones as I feel like they are classic looking and can go with anything.

@Giles or anyone on the IH staff, I'm sure this has been answered already but will the indigo shoes fade at all?  I'm thinking that I may want to keep the indigo ones if they will fade to become a lighter color with age.

[Giles]

They'll fade, just like all of our 21oz indigo selvedge does….Same stuff....

A(nother) plea for a 12 or 13 in the upcoming hi-tops!!!

[Giles]

The 11 in the low tops is equivalent to a US 12

[DK]

I know, but I take a US 13-14! Makes barefoot skiing easier (I imagine–never tried). Also tripping on things.

No over dyed option? Haha

I think I might have to get me a pair of these….indigo of course. Have to measure my Chuck 70s, prob fit into 9s or 9.5s easily.

How do these compare to the Chuck 70s in midsole comfort? Snug fit or enough to throw in a pair of insoles for added comfort if needed?

25oz up next? Haha, just kidding. Hope the soles are built to to last as long as the denim or longer.

I was able to get some pedag washable insoles in mine without any issues (http://a.co/dufPGcM)…  Even with the insoles in mine I can still wear thin no-show socks without any comfort issues.

As for the midsole comfort I'd say they're pretty close to chucks that I've had before... the insoles, however, are not as cushiony as Chucks so if you're planning on wearing these with thin socks then I'd say throwing in your own insoles would be the way to go.

Just got mine today. I am an 11 in Converse and I got a 10 in these. Fit is perfect. They look and feel amazing, all that remains to be seen is how they last. I beat the crap out of my chucks so we'll see how this goes.
