Before asking the obligatory, "this is my size, what size CP should I get.."...I swore I saw a sizing chart in this thread before...was that for CP? or what it for the many other shoe threads...?

anyways, does CP do a version of high top, black with black sole with a zipper?

It's a work in progress, a lot of the guys over at the Baller Sneaker thread have been putting their measurements in, but there are a lot of sizes/styles missing still for the obvious reasons. Super helpful and doesn't leave a lot of room for error.

On some CP talk, man I really need some 5 Hole Slip Ons... Spring time!

Unofficial WTB in 40/41. Or if any one knows a decent place where to kop.

Anyone try out the SS11 summer editions? They seem to fit more TTS unlike the og achilles which i wasn't expecting. The leather's thinner and the toebox, tongue, and heel accents are sueded or something. The new shape and stitching around the ankles are nice imo. Although it's not really noticable from a few feet away, still wish they weren't perf'd

Anyways just wonderin if they ran small compared to usual CP's for anyone else.

If it helps I have both of them, I wear a size 41 in the achilles low (black and white) and the same 41 in the SS11 summer edition achilles fit a little more snug but still comfortable.

nittygritty ships for free if it's over 220EUR and you have to pay for shipping for tbs (i think their free ship minimum is higher?), other than that it looks about the same to me

Weird question...but has anybody noticed a difference with the new season Common Projects smell? My older Achilles and Summer 09 editions smelled like wonderful italian leather when they were new

My new season Achilles lows I just got sort of smell like a shoe store, you know like a new pair of Nikes or something. I know most of you get what I'm talking about. Anybody experienced this?
