If they're non-returnable, you can also have them stretched by a cobbler. Tell them where it's snug, and they'll stretch it in just those areas. Lets you keep the length but gain some width, which is pretty handy considering how narrow they are in the toebox.

I am the only one who is snoozing at this FW11? Everything, besides the Duck Boot, is just past seasons shoes slightly edited. I don't mind that but at least bring in some new materials or colors.

SS12 looks like a snooze too -_-

I really dislike the "premium" achilles. I've tried them on at Fred Segal Santa Monica and I'm not a fan of the excessive padding/etc. I actually think they are less comfortable despite their "premium" moniker. Maybe they would break in well, but I think they look cheaper in a way.

Huh. I assume there'll be more to it than what's in those couple of pictures.

i agree, tried these at poste, and they look really bulky with a narrow hem. much prefer the classics.
thanks for the fit advice above. ill try thinner socks, had just stocked up on some of the nice thick uniqlo marl ones too.
