I like a snug fit and the sizing chart indicates it’s on 9 with a snug fit, and I was wondering if anybody is in the know whether I should get a size 8. I fully understand that the braided loop will stretch over time and this is my main concern, specially paying $100 for it. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi, in my opinion that 9 looks snug enough in the paper ggprinted tool in your second pic. My experience is that the recommended size by Apple was spot on for me. I’m between 6 and 7 and as per Apple’s advice I could wear either depending on my taste. I ordered both thinking Id be returning the one That didn’t fit. Well, now I don’t know which to return because they both fit quite comfortably! 6 is maybe a tiny bit too snug but not uncomfortably so. I think I’ll keep both as backup. I can’t imagine me using a size 5 though. That'd be way too tight.
 
When I used the sizing tool, it had me at a 7, which worked well for the solo loop. However, after reading a few posts on this forum, it was suggested to go one size smaller for the Braided Loop. I ended up getting my Braided Loop as a size 6 and it's perfect.
