Short answer: many wearers find the Air Force 1 roomy, and some size down by half a size, but fit varies by pair, by age and by your foot shape. The safest method is to compare foot length in centimetres.
Why sizing varies
The Air Force 1 has been made for decades in different factories and materials. A newer pair and an older preloved pair can fit slightly differently, and Low, Mid and High cuts feel different around the ankle.
Best way to choose a size
- Measure your foot length in centimetres (see our size guide).
- Compare it with the insole length given in the listing.
- Leave a little room at the toe.
- Cross-check on our US, UK and EU size chart.
Wide or narrow feet
If your feet are wide, a roomy fit may suit you at your usual size. If your feet are narrow, you may prefer half a size down. Check the measurements rather than guessing.
Low vs Mid
The Mid cut has an ankle strap and can feel slightly more secure. See the preloved Air Force 1 guide.
One of one means no exchanges
