hope they fit. I sz down .5 from my norm. do you happen to know any distinctions ( fit, quality etc) from those and the ripple sole? without saying the obvious.

I'm not sure .5 will be enough. I felt like I needed to size down at least 1 on them. Problem with those is that the back of the shoe is so short that if they are too big, your foot just comes out of them and insole/heel grips don't help that very much.

I've twritten about those and the ripple sole ones here a couple of times. Tried both styles a couple of months back.

I'm a true 44.5 (28.5 cm foot) and IIRC, I got a 44 and a 43.5 in the ripple sole and a 44 or a 43.5 in those flat creeper ones you got. All of them were too big. So ripple sole: size down 1.5 to maybe 2. Flat creeper sole: size down 1 to maybe 1.5. Could be wrong but that's from what I remember.

Also, they look worse IRL. Sort of cheap construction and weird, blobby silhouette. Sorry man, haha...

Those are nice I almost picked them up too but I got something else in the works.



Officine creative


Yeah I've hear mixed things about the brand, but this model looks pretty sturdy and has pretty much the perfect shape. Fingers crossed they're still in stock and fit more or less tts

Hmmm.... I've looked at those derbies a couple of times.
Would be great if you could post a short review when you get them.
