133 | How Much Izzat?
Saturday Aug 15, 2020
Saturday Aug 15, 2020
For the first time in a while, we are guest-less for this week's episode of True to Size. However, we didn't let that hold us back from having a great time, as we dive deep into some Nike Kobe news, and some Adidas Damian Lillard news. Then, the boys are surprised by Alvin with a gift, live on the episode, and then we talk favourite colour combinations during NSR. It's been a while since we've played a new game, so we introduce a new one called 'How Much Izzat?', that stumps the crew. Finally, we close out the episode with a plethora of Sole Polls that have some surprising results.

132 | Fake Dunks n' Donuts ft. Hardie Girl & Laizey Bones
Saturday Aug 08, 2020
Saturday Aug 08, 2020
We're back are we are locked and loaded with one of the most fun episodes we've recorded in quite some time! We are joined by good friends of the show, Hardie Girl and Laizey Bones, to talk about a cool new initiative by Reebok, our opinions on the Warren Lotus "Dunks", and also a triple whammy of Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down topics. We also throw several 'Can You Name Five' challenges at our guests, who manage to scape by with mixed results. Finally, we dig into some in depth convos with Mere and Laize about travel, sharing a sneaker collection, and how they think big brands are doing showing love to female sneaker buyers.

131 | Sa Taille Normal ft. Jifi
Saturday Aug 01, 2020
Saturday Aug 01, 2020
The crew is back and we're joined by friend of the show, Jifi, all the way from Paris, France. This week we cover a nominee for pettiest move of the year by a Toronto sneaker shop, get right back into the "is 'cement print' a print" debate, and test our French language skills with our Parisian guest. Then, because Jifi is with us, we play 21 Questions, and run through his Soleography. After that, we get to know a little bit about what it's like being a French Youtuber, get a snapshot of the Paris sneaker scene, and learn what the casual sneaker-lover in Paris is wearing right now.

130 | Art Attack ft. JBo Airbrush
Saturday Jul 25, 2020
Saturday Jul 25, 2020
Crank those speakers up to 100% because we've got a banger of an episode this week. We run through our usual segments with some great WNBA news, a discussion about what our significant others hate about us, and the continuation of the "is cement print a print", saga. We're joined this week by talented customizer, airbrush artist, and self-proclaimed non-sneakerhead, J Bo; who gives us the skinny on his latest custom sneaker project for a very high profile client. Jordan also gives us some insight on his new passion, stop motion video - which he has paired with his airbrush art to create some stunning visuals.

Saturday Jul 18, 2020
Saturday Jul 18, 2020
We're back with our final reintroduction episode to make sure all of you are up to speed with the members of the True to Size podcast. The final person to make the rounds is LDoggy, who lends the reigns to Alvin and Dooney as they send him through 21 Guestions and get in depth with his Soleography. This week we also cover another insane sneaker that's found it's way to auction, read out a busy week's worth of EEE's, and discuss our picks for the shoe of the year for 2020 (so far).

128 | Scratch the Itch
Saturday Jul 11, 2020
Saturday Jul 11, 2020
We're back, and once again we're back without friends. This week we cover some news regarding arguably the biggest release of the year (so far), the Air Jordan x Dior collaboration, along with a busy week of pickups from the squad. We also cover a couple of NSR topics including hot dog eating contests, and when the weather is officially too hot. We close out the episode by reintroducing ourselves to our boy, Mister Q Mart. Alvin gets a chance to play 21 Guestions before giving us the rundown on his sneakerhead history with his Soleography.
As we ease back into our regular podcast schedule we want to take one last opportunity to thank everyone who rocked with us during our lockdown programming - because of y'all we had record-breaking numbers in downloads, and we're so grateful to everyone who chose to let us keep you company in quarantine.

127 | For The First Time In Forever
Saturday Jul 04, 2020
Saturday Jul 04, 2020
WE BACK! And not just with a new episode, but back together! For the first time in over three months, the gang is back, in person, to record the podcast. The Ontario government has increased gathering sizes to ten people, which means we are good to go! Thank you to everyone who rocked with us while our audio quality was in the gutter, and the delay was outrageous; it means the world that you all stuck around while conditions were subpar. Being back together for the first time in so long feels like a complete restart, so we're going with that, and reintroducing ourselves to the new listeners, and reminding the old listeners what's good. This week, we highlighted our dude Jo Dooney as we ran him through 21 Guestions, and got to know him some more with his Soleography.

126 | Cowboy Boots and Alexander McQueen ft. Ryan Swanger
Saturday Jun 27, 2020
Saturday Jun 27, 2020
As things get back to normal, we're transitioning back to one episode per week, but we're going to make sure we keep the fire content coming. This week we cover another insane sneaker auction, Kanye doing Kanye things, and debate over what is/isn't cement "print". We're incredibly excited to be joined by our brother from Texas, Ryan Swanger, who dropped by to talk men's fashion, life as an American sneakerhead, and raising a set of twin boys. He also gives us his fantastic point of view about not getting overly attached to any of his pairs, and the value in constantly renewing your sneaker closet.
Once again we're ending the episode with a shout out for a Front-Line worker who's out there saving the world during these unprecedented times.

125 | London Calling ft. Ash Bash Sneakers
Saturday Jun 20, 2020
Saturday Jun 20, 2020
We're back with our second episode of the week - and this one is a banger! We are excited to welcome our first international guest, all the way from London, England - Ash Bash Sneakers. We fly through our regular segments where we talk Sotheby's, Stock X, and UFC fighting so we can get into the goodies with Ash. We run him through a round of 21 Guestions before playing a special Canadian edition of 'Can You Name 5?'. Then, we get to know his sneakerhead history with his Solography, before getting the rundown on what it's like being a sneakerhead in Europe. Do Jordan's really sit over there? Do they actually get a ton of pairs when hype releases roll around? Turn up the volume and find out!
Once again we close out the episode with a shout out for a Front-Line worker who's out there saving the world during these unprecedented times.
