My 39 MMM GATs most definitely fit smaller than my 39 CP Achilles

I'm a 42 in CP and a 9.5 on the Brannock device. 42 in CP fits me comfortably, whereas 42 in the GATs were too tight. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Damn, this is a pretty good deal. The GATs do come with laces in the box, right?




I don't know. These are the ones you could wear without laces, since they have the elastic things inside of them. Still, it would make sense if they included laces...

Never tried any on, but from what I've heard a lot of people size up one from CP's.

I have 2 pairs of low achilles both in size 44 that only differ in color, one of them fits perfect where as the other is really tight and I would rather have a 45. I wear 45 in MMM lows, so in one case I would be the same size as my CP size, but I could also be 1 size above my CP size. The point is don't size down

I saw one guy say he was sizing up for MMM, I had to jump in.... :embar:

Whether you take same as CP or true to your usual size, that's fine and everyone's feet are different, just don't size up, it would be absurd

thank you for saying the exact opposite of what i just said


this. look, the ******* deal with MMM GATs: either size up or stay TTS depending on how wide your feet is. GATs are generally understood as being TTS, while CPs are BIGGER than tagged size, but are NARROW.
