Nike Dunk vs Air Max 90 Sizing
Men’s Photo Comparing Nike Dunks to Air Max 90 Sizing
Below is a photo of my men’s Nike Dunks compared to Nike Air Max 90 (both size 12). Both fit within the realm of true to size, however, if you made me choose, I would say that the Nike Dunk on the right has just a tiny bit more length. Overall, the sizing length is quite similar:
