hi everyone,
I was considering to get a pair of Rachel Comey or Common Projects oxford.
I know CP is pretty famous for its simple looks and durability.
However, have anyone tried one of those Rachel Comey oxford? If so, please let me me know which one you guys think is better.

Rachel Comey quality is AWESOME I really like the leather, construction, etc. Dare i say that they are pretty much on par with CP's? They seem to be the kind of shoes that will def. get more character as they are worn as opposed to fall apart. Idk I'd rather have comey's than CP but that's just me.


btw I'm selling some black size 9.5 Comeys (I know, I know sorry about the shameless self promo) pm if you are interested Ill put the actual ad on B&S here in a few days

Run large... I had a pair of 11.5's and they could fit a 12.5 probably.
Quality is great tho

edit: agreed w/ post below, I had the hazard boots

I think it depends on the shoe. Im a size 10 in most shoes like nikes. I went 9.5 in some comey oxfords, and I think a 9 wouldve been perfect fit. For the Hazard boots, I also got a 9.5, but I feel I could i fit in 8.5 for those.

The Rachel Comey shoes look nice but the toe box is a little bulbous for my taste.
