Common Projects sneakers

[heirware since 230bc]

been reading around, sizing kind of confuses me...

im usually 44 in most shoes (11US or 10UK) would i then size down for 43 or stay tts 44?

I think sizing may differ slightly between the styles, but I have their red vintage highs in 43, and I'm usually around a US 10. I think a size 11 person would find it difficult to fit into these 43s.

Tres Bien Shop and Maas & Stacks recommends sizing down, and I bought two pairs through them both last summer (achilles vintage and desert boots) and they fit perfect. I am reguarly a 10.5 in Nike, New Balance, whatever and dropped down to a 42, and they're great. So I would tell you to size down, but where are you ordering them from? I would ask what they recommend.

all stores tell you to size down on CP because they are so long but they are also very thin, so if you have wide feet go TTS or half a size up

[computurd]

how do you guys lace your achilles? Or which lacing style allows the shoe to retain the best shape

this way - straight bars (which is how they come in the box)

or this way V-shape (which is how i lace pretty much all my other shoes)

Any word on that september new editions drop ? other than that tweet

[joeyod007]

ya, i'm not sure. i remember tres bien saying that production had been delayed and they were expecting them at the end of the summer. that was about a month ago, so im not sure, hopefully they'll drop soon.

I'd say this place. They're great for laces generally.

maybe check out Reborn, I'm pretty sure they used to stock CP but there website doesn't list them anymore. Worth a call or something http://www.reborn.ws/

Does anybody know how the CP Running Sneakers compare to regular CPs when it comes to size?

Talking about these:

damn, revolveclothing.com is sold out of sz 43 common projects Winter Premium (they had the sz 43 there a few days ago)...i heard this is a narrow shoe so i went for 43 which is sz 9.5. i also wore a narrow shoe from lacoste and its 9.5.

the 42 wouldnt fit my wide feet im guessing

Whatever happened to the New Editions line?

I know this has been asked a lot before so I apologize but I am still unsure about the sizing. I want to get black achilles mids. Just measured my foot and it's 28.5cm long and 10.7cm wide. (true size, without extra space). So I am a true EU 44.5 US 10.5 and UK 11 and a rounded up EU 45 US 11 and UK 11.5. Everybody says that one should size down. So should I get 44? But then again people say that cps are pretty narrow so if you have wide feet (10.7cm is wide isn't it) you should wear your true size or size up. Does anybody have the same feet or a bit smaller/bigger and can tell me how his achilles mids fit? Would be much appreciated.

The reason people say size down, is they think that they run big. In fact they are Italian sizing (although many shops list as EU). Italian sizing RUNS A SIZE BIGGER. So if you are a EU45 US11 UK11.5 (I'm guessing you meant UK10.5? UK sizing runs a size bigger than US) then you would be a CP size of IT44. 10.7cm isn't particularly wide so you should be fine. Im a EU46 US12 UK11 and I have 8 pairs of CP and ALL of them in CP IT45. Thant includes the Achilles Mid too...

does anybody have pics of the vintage lows after they're worn? specifically the grey ones. seems like the only people who take pictures of them are selling them brand new.

[frankie_four]

what's the point in taking pictures of worn grey sneakers?

[lorem3k]

i'm just curious about how the leather on them looks after a while. i don't want to buy a pair of sneakers that look like shit after 2 weeks of walking through snow. if anyone's got a pair i'd appreciate it if you could take some

I lived in Siberia for 4 months and wore grey CPs a lot of the time and they were fine. I've had about a dozen pair of CPs that I've worn regularly and the only ones that looked like shit after a while were the ones that were nylon instead of leather.

edit: didn't see that you were asking about the vintage lows specifically. I don't have any experience with those, but I'm assuming they'll keep the same as achilles/tournaments.

Justify it by wearing them for years. My last pair lasted 5 years.
