Nike uses a 1.5-size men’s↔women’s US gap (industry default is often 1.5). Label scale on box: US MENS.
Source: RunRepeat + solereview (M10=W11.5) + Shop Nice Kicks; practical_offset 1.0 for width (men's D ≈ women's Wide)
Nike uses a 1.5-size men’s↔women’s US gap (industry default is often 1.5). Label scale on box: US MENS. Generic converters that always subtract 1.5 or 2 will be wrong for some brands. We only publish gaps confirmed against brand charts (cm-anchored).
true to size — True to size; wide feet often go half up for the narrow toe box. Width: Slimmer/narrower than AF1 and many AM90s — width is the main caveat.
Label gap is 1.5. Practical gap often used when switching into men’s lasts is 1 — men’s Regular (D) can feel closer to women’s Wide, so some shoppers size less aggressively down.
US Men (w/ fit) applies this model’s runs_small_by
(+0). cm is the most reliable anchor when labels conflict.
