my thoughts exactly.

So how do people look after their CP's? Are you supposed to use anything on the leather? I normally just wipe them down when they get a bit dirty and store them in the box.

I actually quite like them, pair with the right bottoms for casual wear they're pretty sweet.

Lol can't wait to hear people cry about the vintage sole on the BBall Hi's While it does kind of limit their versatility, it just looks SO MUCH BETTER with indigo denim. Looks like charcoal/black Achilles underneath and maybe some new and improved Tournaments near the back? Tan/white lows look good too.

They were part of the F/W 2010 collection, but few places seemed to pick them up. Colette is the only place I've seen them in person.

black bb high with vintage sole looks great worried about what premium achilles means, i thought cp's were already premium sneakers

I guess that I'll go with the 44 if I can find them. I was looking at a pair of the white w/ gumsoles achilles in 45 on ebay for $210 but I guess not. Thanks for the info!
