Size Guide
basketball fit.
Basketball jerseys are cut loose for unrestricted shoulder rotation. Order your normal size for game wear. Performance shoes typically run true-to-size; many players upsize a half for reduced toe pressure on hard cuts.

Fit notes
- High-top vs low-top is preference, not performance. Modern low-tops (Kobes, Curry low) match high-tops on ankle stability tests; high-tops trade weight for proprioceptive feel.
- Wide-footed players: Nike runs narrow, Jordan brand also narrow, Adidas is medium, New Balance is wide-friendly.
- Outdoor courts shred uppers fast — get a pair labeled "outdoor" or "x-outdoor" if you don't have indoor access.
