Really digging the clean aesthetic of these, a nice alternative to Common Projects and perfect for spring/summer. However, I can't seem to find these online in all white or the tournament edition with the green accent...and any place I have found them isn't carrying my size (10.5). Anyone know where to find these? Does anyone have any pics of these as they are broken in, I'm wondering if these distress nicely. Thanks guys.

Heres the amazon link

Plus, Amazon is having an insane sale right now on them. If you buy now you can save a penny.

Seriously though, does anyone have a photo of these being worn, that isn't take from 20 feet away in bad light? I want to see how thick the sole is, and how chunky the shoe is in general, but it's very difficult from stock photos.

its a pretty slim shoe, imagine a pair of stan smiths with a smaller sole, and a more narrower body. They are almost as slim as cps. only pic i could find worn.

CPs are far sleeker, though I think at this point these would be less ubiquitous.

Anyone know where to get a size larger than 11.5? (12) Nobody on eBay has 'em.
