Common Projects sneakers

Hey yo,

did you grabbed the BBall?

Ended up biting the bullet and bought them. I'm normally a 43, so I sized down one for these (no 43's available). Hopefully they fit, if not, expect to see them on the market.

The shoes in question (black):

It's because they sell them in a different curreny. What about nittygritty / end / huntingand collecting / wrongweather

even converting currency the price varies quite a bit! most places are sold out of 41 but ill keep an eye out on those extra stores you suggested! thankyou mr frankie_four

How do the new vintage achilles low fit? Do they fit the same as the original achilles?

Have a pair of the original achilles which fit real snug, wondering if i should go up a size on the vintage achilles low..

Just got them. I'm a true 43 and these 42's fit fine. I can see how they might be too thin (width wise) for anyone above a D.

Those are cool. Check out the wings+horns collection pictures on their site. Their fw11 line had shoes like that, so that should give you some idea.

[Seething Tortoise]

Whatever the fuck happened to those Achilles highs that they did for like 1 season. Did they just drop them after that?

[Denton]

still around

If only they did those in plain white.

does achilles leather and suede fits about the same? im thinking to grab a leather achilles but not sure weather i should take 41 or 42. i got a 42 on tournament from cp's earlier season and they fit slightly loose, and got a suede achilles 41 from couple of seasons back and a bit tight on the side.

[Fycus]

You're better off going with the 41's imo. CPs do better at stretching if theyre snug as opposed to getting them loose because it only gets worse. The suede is pretty forgiving too, so getting them to fit comfortably should be fine

[cameron-]

if your cp's stretch in the toebox because your feet are too wide you're not gonna enjoy the look... in my experience

[blissandecstasy]

hello peeps, i know this question been asked over and over again. Im a size 10 on adidas originals stan smith and mostly size 10/10.5 on all sneakers out there. any advise what size should i get for achilles low ?

I've been anxiously awaiting the date announcement too. Tres Bien will be the first to know and they will announce it here when they find out, but as of March 28, there has been no date yet.

[Desi]

Think some mens mag said May or June as a launch date.

[seven.homme]

i just got my CP achilles from tresbien, and yes, the leather ones stretch better than the suede one. thx guys !

^shit

[ludradn]

Anybody can give me advice on sizing for the summer achilles?

I'm a 9-9.5, would I fit 41s?

[seven.homme]

^i just got a 41, apparently after a while the leather is still a bit stiff. so probably grab a 42. im a 9-9.5 as well

[frankie_four]

I am 9.5 in most shoes as well and I received the Tournament and Bball from last winter in 41 but they were to small. Even if the sole had the same length like the CPs from some seasons ago

[btuzon]

I got a 40 in the achilles after having a perfect fit with a 40 in the desert boot. The toe box on the achilles are too tight, thinking about sizing up or maybe i should try to stretch them.

[seven.homme]

yes .. same thing about the toe box.

[HelloWello]

They don't stretch.. or minimal if anything. Been wearing mine for months now, still pretty tight at the toes, but I can live with it
