they're much smaller. The V2s are oversized. The label says 43
Nike MAG replicas (V2 and V3 only)

To clarify, I wasn't suggesting to clean with only distilled water. The discussion included making a cleaning solution from water and laundry detergent. I suggested distilled water would eliminate the variable of hard water. I personally would be using Angelus Easy Clean. The member needed to clean them on a timetable that did not allow for using Angelus.

So you have the same size in V2 (9,5) and they fit bigger ? (what does the V2 label say ?)
So you'd say the V3 fit true to size ?
@AirMagMan I charged them for about 3 hours the first time around. The left shoe was completely dead when it arrived, but turned on after the first charge, but turns off intermittently at random intervals. I'm just trying to gather if its normal for them to turn off randomly, or how long they should stay powered on after a full charge.

@airair I think they are gonna be making all the V2 as V2.1 now.
@DragonGalvy PM sent. Also, they seem to have upgraded the toe like the grey model.

Omg guys!! @001FAB finally sent my pair back to me!!! I wouldn't ever considered having these without him! Really can't thank him enough!!!
I didn't even need an adapter, the voltage was the same as we have in Europe.
Charged them for 4-5 hours, and they lighted up really nicely! I have worn them around the house for 20 min, and they seem to be working just fine, no flickering or anything! They also fit perfectly onto my feet, it's comfortable too, a bit stiff though, but they literally fit me like a glove!

Your bttf collection is absolutely glorious Emma. Congratulations on the Mags.
Thanks guys! By the way do you think it's relatively safe to just leave them on display? It's at the back of the room, and I usually use the curtain when it's really sunny, to cover my items. x)

It seems they don't like the sun at all.
Maybe put some anti-UV adhesive protection all over the glass of your windows could do the trick.

Where did you get that Instant Infant print!?
It's not a print, it's an original Instant infant from 1988.

When the V2's first came out (wow, nearly 5 years ago) I got 2 pairs thinking "these will never be available again!" Haha how wrong I was. I got a US10 because most of my other shoes are US10, but also a pair in US9.5, thinking to keep the 9.5's as display. The 10s were definitely too big even with the extra insoles I put in, so the plan got reversed.
The V2 label also says US 9.5 EUR 43 but they are the same length as my size 10 Reebok Pump Bringbacks. I posted a photo of that on here a long time ago.
The V3's seem to be true to size (considering that even with authentics, sometimes the best fit can be half a size either way when you try them on - my Nike Command Force's are 10.5) - if you're thinking about only getting one pair, get one that's exactly the size you usually wear or maybe half a size bigger. You can always put big insoles in them (or add an extra tongue)

So is the V3 in US 9.5 better or a V3 in US 10 better if you are normally a US 10?
If you are saying they are true to size that sounds good, but some have said they are half a size big?

Someone posted a photo a while ago where they peeled away the nike size sticker inside of the V2 to find another underneath. So the top sticker said US9.5 and bottom sticker said US10. This explains why the V2s have always been a bit big.
Apparently the V3s are true to size like the V1s.

In other words they don't really make the V3s in half sizes but lie about it instead. Classy.
