Mine haven't. Granted I don't wear them too often.

They fit looser. The size 43 shelltoes fit me perfectly, the desert boots, a little loosely. I also have a pair of the desert boots in 42, which were too tight to begin with (though not painfully so,) but they loosened up to the right size. Of all of the CPs I have (12 pairs?), the desert boots fit the largest.

it seems that all online stockists are sold out in 41, barneys had gum summer achilles for 180 but only in 45
