Hello. The sole of my lavers is quickly wearing down, and despite the fact that shoegoo could keep them going I want new shoes.

I'm interested in some g-units, especially for the support they offer. Shin splints always seem to be on the frontier for me. I found an amazing deal at amazon for some g6 lows at 40 bucks. I'm just confused if these are the right generation or if I should get lows at all.

I wear 9's in my lavers, and its the perfect size. So should I get 8.5 for these g-units?

Heres the link:

Are they the right shoe?

i wore 9 lavers. then, I got 8.5 G units, and those were way too big for me, I wished I'd had a size 7.5 or an 8.

this is definitely the right model of shoe. Just worry abot the size.
I used to wear a 10.5 laver and I switched comfortab;y to a 9.5 g unit. YOu might want to go a whole size smaller. Good find!

I'm digging the red myself.

To test my sizing, I went to a local footlocker and tried on a Gunit g6 III. Although the shoe is completely wrong, and probably wouldn't even work for footbag, I thought the sizing might be representative. I tried on 8's, and 8.5's and they were both too small.

Is the sizing between the lows I'm looking at and the III's the same?

i used to wear 9.5 lavers and 8.5 g units are a bit loose

Okay! I ended up getting 8's and they worked out - but just barely! They were really tight at first. Changing into thin socks and doing the tongue mod helped a lot. These shoes rock!
