FWIW I'm a US11 in Converse and take a 44 in CP.

[jf30]

I normally wear 43 (most shoes), 42,5 in Chucks. I tried the 43, they could fit but were loose. Since I hate when my shoes are (even a tad) large, I got some 42. Tight at first in the toebox area but they stretched out and are now perfect. I would recommend sizing down 1 if you dont have uberwide feet.

What's the smallest available size on CPs?

What's the smallest available size on CPs?

I've seen a 39 once, and maybe a 38 once on Yahoo Auctions, but you will usually never find anything smaller than a 40 or 41 in most US stores.

What's the smallest available size on CPs?

We got sizes 38 and 39 in the olive and blue ones. It looks like, officially, the smallest size they make is 33.

edit: got another box today from Common Projects. Patent brown (a really dark chocolatey shade) mid and patent navy low. We got sizes 38 and 39 in those too.

just got the black hi tops at odin. they look awesome and although in pictures they look pretty simple, in hand you get to appreciate the quality. i'm usually a 13. bought a 46 and they are a biot narrow in the front, but not too tight and way too dope to return.

The patent models will not be carried forward from what I have seen. The boxing boot that kanye wears in complex is scrapped for Spring08. They will be introducing perforated models of the achilles. They look sick!

[Corbin Law]

this collection seems pretty hit/miss for me.

some of them like those brownish hi tops steal my heart

but some of the other ones like the lows that look sort of like vans authentics, why not just by vans authentics and save yourself 150 usd.

idont think i would shell out the cash for cp.

all red canvas vans type + laces = teh shit

Anywhere I can view these?

I think I'm going to try and scarf up everything I can, as last season I slept on them about two weeks and everything was friggin' gone. I've been a fan since their initial season and I've still only managed to get about 1/5 of what I've wanted despite always having money.

[jet]

SW has them, small order though and you have to call not on the site. The red is so nice and I'd recommend putting in your own laces = 10x better.

[wEstSidE]

i saw the grey mids, silver and black lows...achilles

im not impressed...

[goldengloves]

Anyone seen any of the bags in person?

*on the left

Really interested to see what other styles they're gonna come out with and if the quality is worth the price.

what are the prices and sizes to they have in odin for the black? no mid tops?

[owl]

^^ yes they do have the black mid tops. price is $270 including tax.

[kunk75]

[kunk75]

the hi tops are 289 plus tax.

The bags are: leather duffel and utility bag in white, light grey, black, or brown leather and waxed canvas/leather duffel or utility (the one pictured) bags in tan, black, and light brown. I haven't seen them in person but have heard they are gorgeous. They were to ship at the end of August but unfortunately they are going to be delayed.

We'll be getting the leather utility and duffel bags in both light grey and black.

Just a pair of grey leather/suede highs in size 44 and a couple pairs of black leather slip ons.

[jonglover]

Anyone know where I can find the blue, high-top patents? Those are amazing.

[goldengloves]

Thank you Tyler! I'll be looking forward to seeing those. I'm just hoping there will be one big enough to count as a 'weekend' type bag.

[ruach]

I just made a post with our Common Projects arrivals so far: http://helloblackbird.blogspot.com/2007/09/common-projects.html

They still aren't actually in the store yet so PM me if there is any interest in something. The superfuture discount applies.

[goldengloves]

No bags.

Those brown patents are wild!

[jonglover]

Not to be a pest, but I thought I'd ask again. Anyone seen the blue high-top patents in the wild? I need these and know that if I don't get them before next weekend I never will.

[kunk75]

asked odin to let me know if/when they get them. if they call, i'll let you know.

They are slightly more brown than the pictures show. In direct sunlight they look much more brown but otherwise it is a very dark shade. I just took a couple pictures to try and get the true color and I'll post them here a little later this evening.
