Nike FlyKnit Chukka Review Thread
Hey guys,
Can anyone shed some light on sizing? I am typically a 10.5 in all Nike running shoes, do these fit pretty Nike standard, or should I go up or down half a size?
Thanks everyone!

They fit true to size/a touch small, depending on how you like the fit. I wish I had gone a half size up. Ymmv. Sorry if that's not helpful

I don't personally own a pair of the Chukka's, but I was curious on sizing as well. I actually have found the Flyknit line fits a half size small, I usually am an 8.5 in all Nike sneakers but have to go up to a 9 in the Flyknit's.
It is so weird because just searching on this, a review I read the guy says hes normally a 14 in Nikes and got a 13 in these and it was perfect. I just probably need to find them to try on unfortunately.

The Chukka line is notoriously two things.
1. True to size
2. Toe bed depth is small.
So it will almost always come down to personal fit, since the depth of foot is different for every person.

they have been true to size for me with my other nike shoes both golf and running.
point #2 is true. When I first wore them with kentwool I could feel the top of the shoe on my toes. After a range session the broke in a little and are very comfortable in the toe and can't feel them sitting on my toes any more.

And its an issue through the line depending on depth. Most lines have had an issue with this over the last few years in one line or the other, and I am certain they figure it out with future releases.

Misspoke. I meant most brands have had it with one line or the other, not just Nike shoes.

I have tried both and it's not even close, for me. The Chukkas as more comfortable and snug. If have no worries about walking 70plus rounds
I have worn 11.5 in Nike golf shoes for years. They fit very true to size. The 360 water proofing barrier will make them a bit snug for the first couple rounds then they will be perfect.
Bought em! Got em 145 free shipping on eBay couldn't pass them up at that price

Mine took two range sessions and a round and the waterproof works. Got tested all weekend at club clash.
tried on a pair of the boost 360 tour and just didnt go well with my foot. ordered a pair of the chukkas.

Hit some balls at the range this morning with these for the first time. I agree that they feel a little snug around the toes at the start, but they've softened up really nicely and felt great. As far as fit, I have wide, flat feet and typically wear wide sizes wherever possible. I'm coming from Size 11W Footjoy M Projects (the original spikeless ones), and size 12 in the chukkas fits perfectly with no worries about width across the mid foot or toes.
Had every intention on buying a pair of Puma Ignite Spikeless today but just too narrow. Tried these on for s***s and giggles and man are they comfortable and the stability was both new and well received. Ordered a pair from Budge Golf with a 20% off coupon and can't wait to get them in.

That "stability" was the first thing that I noticed when trying them on!

Nothing beats these shoes for me. So snug and comfortable. I wore no show socks today and will never do that again. The top of the shoes almost did a number on the ankles with the running. But Kentwool socks are perfect for these shoes as are stance socks.

Finally bought a pair from an eBay seller who happened to live in my city. Got em for $150, which was a decent price. Went with the size 9 (usually wear 8.5 in Nike sneakers). The toe area is def. very blunt/tight, I am glad I went a half size up. I know wearing my normal size probably would work, but also wearing thicker quarter length socks add to needing a bit more room. Excited to get them on the course this week, love the stability as well.

Whatever you do don't wear them with ankle length socks, saw a guy on the course today rocking that look with these and it was BAD. I wanted to take a picture to post in here but it would have been too obvious.
