Just got the burgundy shine derbies in the mail in a size 41. It's really not that shiny, not anywhere close to patent leather. Maybe just a bit shinier than regular dress shoe leather. Nice shape, looks decent. The "stormwelt construction" doesn't seem too refined in construction (not distressed, but not smooth or polished). Overall, I like 'em.

They fit a bit smaller than the usual CP shoes, though, hence....

Did you end up posting fit pics or maybe just actual pics...sucks the 41 didn't work out for you bud. I got black ones coming in the mail.

for me there something about hightop CPs that dont correspond well with my achilles low. all my achilles are a 44 and love em, achilles high 44 i had to part with since they didnt fit, and i tried on the bball in 44 and again just not a good fit. for me i find the high's have a wide slope going from the forefoot to the ankle, and thats where i find them to be way too big.
for reference for others
achilles low:44
dessert boot: 43
oxford: 43
combat book: 44

Thanks for the info! Do you think its a bad idea to buy the bball high for winter season? Not really sure if they are suitable for snow/cold weather :S

After wearing them a half dozen times, I'm quite pleased with them. They're comfortable and majestic.
