I just got a pair of Superstar series 2 size 10.5 US from an Ebay store. These are my first series 2 kicks and they feel slightly smaller than for instance Superstars wd and Adicolor.
Is this coincidence or tend series 2 kicks to be smaller than other Adidas series?

2's fit a little tighter around the foot because of the padded tongue... wait till you try a superstar skate

So would you recommend going up half a size when buying Series 2 as a general rule?
What about them skates? Are these even tighter than Series 2?

Unfortunatly there is no hard and fast rule when it come to superstar fitting, some 2's (as well as 1's and vintage) fit differenly to others.. I have some in an 8.5, a 9 and a 9.5.. your best bet is to try them on first - if it's possible.
Skates, although well padded, are quite roomy and so you can stick to your usual size or even drop a half..

Thanks, I see. unfortunately not easy to try the ones form EBay or any other web shop. Does any other have experience regarding this issue? How do you generally pick your sizes when buying from the net? Does some series generally come smaller or bigger than other series?

I always buy the same size and rarely experience any problems with the exception of Ultrastars, they seem to fit a little small so I'd recommend going up half a size if buying any of these.
Superstars are indeed super...

Since you´re from Norway, why don´t you just come to my store and check out the skates then?
Bor du i Oslo eller?

Anyone know how the caviars fit? I found a good price on a pair in a US 10.5 or 11.5, NO 11s!!! I usually wear an 11 in Supes. I wear a 10.5 in centenials, all zx models (just got a zx800 that I could have used a 10 in) all nikes etc... I wear a 10.5 in all those. Ive tried on a couple 10.5 supes and they just fir way too small. Even my uu11 vin olive green camo ones fit a little snug. Im so confused.But I want these, and I fear an 11.5 will look and feel huge on me.
