I'd go for the bigger size in the caviar's Mines.. The vintage gazelles fit true to size mate, go for your regular supe size..

I my experience the caviars fit just like any other SS vintage (and most other SS too) so if I was you I'd buy it in the Superstar size you usually wear. And if that's a US 11 I'd wait until the right size comes up. If you buy a pair cheap, but the size is wrong, you would just have wasted your money. Best thing to do would probably be to find a pair of vintages in a shop and try on for size.
Superstars are indeed super...

In general I take a US 10 in all soops which is a good fit with a tiny bit of room to move.
I have one pair of US 9.5 and they are an exact fit but hurt my feet if I wear them all day.
I also have heaps of 10.5's which still fit good but have more room in them.
The only kicks where I've had to get 10.5's is my Lee Quinones because the 10's kill the back of my feet-
I only wished I knew that before I snapped up my US 10 Underworlds because they feel the same.

i'm good in a 12 in all models bar ultras. i can squeeze down to 11.5, but depending on the shoe i might not be able to wear them all day. unfortunately my UP's fall into this category so if anyone wants to trade their 12's...
my caviars are a US12.5 and are a bit big, but not sloppy enough that I get heel rub. And I've got a pair of promodel vins that are 12.5 and fit perfectly - the non snakeskin ones seem a bit smaller than the snakeskins.
Gazelles I've always worn a 12 in, same with stan smiths.
All these are US sizes, BTW.

hmmm...
quick question on sizes
how much bigger is half a size?
im a size 10US/9.5UK but a lot of the shoes i find are all size 10UK
is it much of a difference?
on the 35ths i have, without socks, my feet reach between a finger width or two of the tip of the shell(so thats about 1-2cm).(the tongue is the thin type)
thanks =]
