The Styleforum x Archibald Sneaker GMTO

[OrlandoMo]

Hi SF-ers,

We've got some good news to start off your weekend...

You can now shop the full SF-01 range.

Thank you to all who contributed, we're proud of the fact that this is truly the product of a cumulative effort. We’ve made sure it’s a secret link so that only users of the forum can purchase at the Naked (at cost) price which includes a donation of $5 per pair to Styleforum. In the event that there are any variations in the cost of the sneakers, we’ll return the discrepancy to purchasers in the form of Archibald credit, though we suspect that won’t be the case.

The sizing is true to our Ghirlandina sneakers with a size chart available for you to measure against, and each pair will come with tonal and white laces. We've also included the option of adding some minimal branding on the tongue, or having an entirely unbranded sneaker- the choice is yours.

You have 30 days to pre-order your sneakers- then we'll go into production, and potentially order a second run at full price that may be open to the public.

We hope you like them as much as we do!

Team Archibald

Love it! Is there a width guide up yet? Just want to double check against my own measurements before I pre-order.

Dear Archibald,

You are great (I think), your sneakers are great (Im a believer), in fact I am nuts about ordering your SF-01 sneakers. But your web interface, ... , prevents me from ordering. I´ll try again tomorrow,

Regards.

Looks great! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to be involvedin this project Archibald team.

Now about sizing....I'm debating between 41 and 42. I wear some Nikes in US 10 (EU 44) and some in US 9.5. I tried measuring and come up to about 10.5 inches (26.6 cm), and most other sneakers or shoe sizes tend to be EU size 42. Which do you recommend I go with? Feet width is probably like a double E (Ferragamo loafers are too narrow for comfort).

they look great. It will be difficult to choose. Can you give lnstructions on how to measure my feet correctly?

However, many sneakers come with white soles which was a subject much discussed. Is it posible to chose, for example, beige suade with gum sole?

 

[JoeBlack0]

Can we exchange these if the sizing doesn't work?

 

[Concordia]

The sizing chart references sneakers. Can anyone compare to standard shoe sizes?

The width it’s just a slightly wider than a 2E! I just measured a 42 and the ratio between length and width it’s around 2.7. You can send us your measurements via email though and we’ll check which size would work best for you.

Sure, free exchange and returns in US and UK

Sure, what shoes do you normally wear? And what size?

So would I want to go with a 43? My foot is 11” long and 4.5” wide.

We have this measuring guide that you can find also in the size guide, but do let me know if not clear.

Regarding the soles, unfortunately we encountered high minimum order quantities per color with our producer Margom. We decided to keep only those 4 soles available in order not to let down customers who were going for less popular choices.

Yes I would go for a 43! I think that a 44 would be too long (between 11.3’’ and 11.42’’)

EG and Crockett & Jones 11 (UK), and 45 in Vass and Baudoin & Lange.

It should be a 45 but I always suggest to measure the feet and double check with our size guide
