Dad's been nagging me to get him a pair of CPs since he saw me wear them on the 4th. He wears 6.5 in Lanvins, should I get him a 40 or 39?
Also, any tips on how to clean white archilies? I'm starting to accumulate black lines on mine from contacting god knows what.


Is he UK 6.5 or US ?

Get the Jason Marxx stuff....works amazing.

Edit: Also you're dad's a pretty stylish guy...I'm pretty sure my dad's entire wardrobe was furnished by the hardware store.

Haha, thanks. He's always been very stylish, and has a bunch of Junya, Jil, Lanvin, and Balenciaga pieces. He recently got into Rick and Thom Browne, which is funny, as I find them to be antithesis of each other.

I have a pair of Vintage low, and they make a squeaky noise then i walk, are regular Achilles low made of the exact same (hence, should i expect to get squeaky noise out of them as well?)

what are your experiences with their dress shoe sizing? do you wear your sneaker size, or do you size up or down?
