Trying putting shoe trees inside. I find that helps when the shoe is a little tight.

I've been putting shoe trees in consistently. I even double wrapped the right tree with 2 pairs of socks to see if that helps.

I think you would be better off with the size 42.

I flip-flop on this every day. I'm just worried of having the same issue I had last time with the 42's.

the achilles doesn't fit all feet / all people. it might not be for you

 

[OccultaVexillum]

They'll break in. Like was said earlier if you put show trees in at night it will help speed it up, also switch the lacing. They always come with very tight lacing. Bottom line is they are a narrow shoe.

Good morning to all the people that bought your CPs off of a reputable site and have peace of mind. Also a good morning to all the homies convincing themselves that the guy from grailed really did buy them off ssense and really hasn't worn them for a few years cuz his gf doesn't like the color.

Owned this pair of Achilles retro for about a year now and wore a good amount of times and came a across the stitching coming loose and also ripped leather. Has this happened to anyone? It makes me pretty sad since I haven’t owned them for that long

Don’t mind the dirty insoles. The downside of owning CPs with white insoles

Has anyone ever seen a fake paper of b-ball lows in white before?

 

[straydog1800]

I'm 50/50 on these being fakes, but i'm no expert. The lettering on the insole is not embossed and has completely disappeared. The toes look a bit too round. Other than that, I have no idea. As a side note, the seller has been gracious, transparent, and has a good rating. Can someone confirm or deny my suspicions?

Got to purchase recently my CP at Porter. Just want to ask, is it SOP for them to delay dispatching the item until a confirmation of a 1 GBP being credited to your card?

Has anyone's serial number ever come off? I dirtied a pair of Tournament canvas sneakers, and in the process of cleaning them, I accidentally rubbed off the serial numbers. Not a big deal (I personally don't care for the numbers either way), just curious..

I don't mow lawns. I'm a software engineer at Google. Heard of it? My apartment worth $1.6 mil now was paid for just from online poker back in the days. I'm doing just fine. You shouldn't assume you're richer than others. You probably aren't. And not sure what you mean by bucko but we don't talk like that in NYC.

For the record, this is coming from someone who can't afford an Allen Edmonds belt
"I like Allen Edmonds, but they're too expensive for my price range."

I'm laughing.

happens all the time. best thing to do is go back in with a gold sharpie and write the serial number yourself and call it a comme des garcons collab
