Has Common Projects Achilles Sizing Changed??

Hi all,

First post in here so apologies if I’ve got anything wrong.

I have a bit of a CP sizing dilemma that I could use your help on.

I’m usually a 42 in Achilles Lows but I have a new pair I recently bought from a guy online who I’m 99.9% sure is legit that are labelled 42 on the side but fit like a normal Achilles Low 41.

My question is, has Common Projects changed it’s sizing to be more TTS? I’ve compared the new shoes with my other pairs and they appear to be legit (only difference I noticed is that the little square emblem on the sole is very slightly bigger) so this is the only explanation I can think of!

I don't think so, but I don't know for sure. They haven't changed the sole, so the footbed should be the same. That said, the perceived fit of a sneaker can vary depending on the leather used. What is new pair? I've had a few suede pairs that felt considerably bigger just because the leather was much softer.
