If you wear a 10.5, this is the good part. That pair is $25 under the $220 retail and didn't move this week. The lowest and highest prices I've recorded for a 10.5 since September 29 are both $195.

Where it stands by size

Only two sizes from 8 to 12 are under retail: the 10.5 and a size 9 at $203, which is $17 under and the lowest the 9 has been since I started tracking it. A size 12 sits exactly at retail, $220. The other six sizes are over, topping out at $250 for an 11.5.

The table shows that this was a mixed week, not a jump across the board: four sizes got cheaper, two got pricier and three didn't change. The size 9.5 fell $17 to $222, only $2 over retail.

It was cheaper earlier this month

The cheapest pair started at $195 on September 29, then slid to $190 on October 27, $165 on October 28 and $162 on October 30. It held at $162 until today, when it went back to $195. I wrote about that $162 size 10 using my October 30 prices.

My take: if you wear a 10.5 or a 9, I'd buy now, since both are under retail. If you wear a 10, I wouldn't pay $230, $10 over retail, for a size that was listed at $162 a week ago.
