how much should I expect to pay for a pair of canvas Nike 3-pointer low tops? I had them when I was a kid and loved them and I want another pair but I know I have to buy a vintage pair since they dont seem to make repros of them, or do they? Size 12. Thanks.

all court i s the closest thing in terms of look that i could see
I gave up trying years ago, maybe they make them wider now.
most shoes are cut too narrow for me. i usually have to special order any dress shoes or steel toes. i find nike's to be cut wider than most, save for skate shoes which i haven't worn since around 13 years old. Nike highs or mids should usually do the trick for me. I've never been able to get a puma even halfway on.
I checked Zappos, but the only ones they have like the ones Batmon posted have contrasting eyelets, which looks like shit to me...white shoes with navy or green eyelets..ugly...wish they had the ones Batmon posted. But Ill check the other ones suggested, thanks.
ive been rocking a pair of nice, black, canvas boat shoes made by vans for most of the summer and they've definitely been up to par. stretchy, breathable and wide enough to get my beavertails in (sockless).
Interesting, because I've been wearing Adidas Sambas for years now and they are one of the few sneakers where I don't have to buy them two sizes larger, clown shoe style. I haven't tried any their other models, though.
Maybe I'll revisit Nikes if I can find any that don't make my eyes hurt.
Ive been wearing with either Countrys, Samoas or SL 72s for a long time and I didnt think they were too narrow, but when I put my foot in the NIke, it was like "whoa!" perhaps it was the particular Adidas models I was wearing...
it could just be the shoes you try, I have always found the Stabs, Structures and 89 Flights to be consistantly good with sizing ( I have slightly wide feet). There are some nikes like the air max 90 that can be reasonably wide depending on where they are made.
