On the same shoe, a men's 13 sold for about 8% more than sizes 9 to 11, a 14 for about 18% more and a 15 or bigger for about a third more. Not every model works that way: the Air Jordan 4 and Air Force 1 showed no size 13 premium at all.

If you wear a 13, you have probably noticed it: the pair you want lists for more in your size than in a 10. It is not your imagination, and it is not one greedy seller. In our sales record, across thousands of shoes, the big sizes did resell higher.

We compared each shoe only with itself. For 3,416 men's sneaker listings on GOAT with at least 10 sales in sizes 9 to 11, we set the median price in each size against that same shoe's median in 9 to 11, using every completed sale from July 28 to October 25, 2026. On the typical shoe, a size 12 sold for 6.3% more, a 13 for 7.6% more, a 14 for 17.9% more and a 15 or bigger for 33.6% more. Small sizes went the other way: a men's 8 sold for 4.2% less.
