Hi, I had a few of these … to help you with sizing, I would recommend to get the same size as you would with chuck taylors. You could also do a half size down, but I wouldn't recommend it for long term.

Beat the crap out of a pair (use them for riding) , they age nicely... Would def stay true to size or even size up next time.

@Mister_Brue what can i say , am a sucker for IronHeart ️

@labrat did you find the width in the toe area loosened up with break in?

I’ve been wearing them around the house today. They feel ok. If they loosen up some with the width across the toes I’ll be money.

[labrat]

@Mizmazzle ill be honest, i did not notice any stretch in the toe area … everywhere else yes. Summer time, it gets hot, and feet start to swell up, not fun. I just use them when it gets cooler and im good

[Mizmazzle]

@labrat that’s a good point about the foot swell situation.

Tracked down these 9s thanks to @travisxray
The white denim is definitely a lot softer and collapses the shoe shape more than the super black, which is more rigid. But these fit a lot better. Really comfortable.

I’m going to dye them black this weekend. Should be a fun project.

@Mizmazzle I also really like the white ones and they look great on you my friend

[FlavourFade]

@Mizmazzle so happy for you buddy!! Hope to see the black dyed ones soon

[Mizmazzle]

Well, it took a few hours to complete…but the dye job is finished. Now they just need to dry. Feeling pretty good about the process.

@Mizmazzle Wow! Turned out great

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 thanks man. Pretty happy with them so far. Hoping the color stays this dark once they’re fully dry.

[Luijim78]

@Mizmazzle a perfect job my friend, congratulations

@Mizmazzle wowGreat job

[FlavourFade]

@Mizmazzle awesome job!! Are these meant to fade over time or will they stay black?

[Mizmazzle]

@FlavourFade great question. I suppose this sort of dye method is more like an over dye…so I’m assuming they will lighten up over time. Not really sure though to be honest.

How's the color looking now that they are dry?

[Mizmazzle]

@GraemeE Funny you should ask…just got home and they are fully dry. Here’s the final result…

Hard to tell, but the dyed ones are not as deep black and have a slight purple hue in bright light. I’m really happy with how they turned out. Dig the contrast stitching. I really love how deep black the super black denim is, but these dyed black ones are going to work for me just fine
