Hey Guys

Looking for some advice here. Over a month and a half later, finally received my tan suede chelsea boots and they are a steal for the price paid and quality. However, a little concerned on the sizing. I measured 42.5 on the calibration guide and sized down to 42 per recommendations as i have very narrow feet.

I tried them on today and the fit is, lets say, very snug. The width is snug but not too tight, however it is the opposite on my toes which feel really restricted. I can't really curl them and there is little room for them to wiggle.

I'm concerned now they won't stretch out enough and that I maybe should have gone TTS. For what it's worth I am a 42 in Common Projects also.

Any thoughts people?


The shoes will stretch but IMO more so width wise. When I got mine they were very snug but not uncomfortable or unbearable at all. Just stiff. It should only be a little snug. Not painful. Does it hurt your feet?


But If you are looking to get your money back I'd be willing to take them off your hands.

Yeah the length I think half a size or size up would probably be best. They didn't really hurt but i only had them on a few minutes and my toes felt like they were crushed

Happy to sell them to you but where are you based.

I had a similar problem, but I sized down one full size and had to sell them (true 42 but got a 41). Wear them in the house for a whole day to see how they feel.

If you're planning on selling them, I'll take them off your hands however.

Thanks guys will try wearing them in the house but my inkling is they are too small. Jape has messaged about buying them but I am based in the Uk so there would be shipping costs involved too so let me know. Only looking to get back the price I paid.

Hey guys, new to this forum. What's up with the website? there are no pictures for the shoes. What's the difference with the different lines? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and sorry if this was addressed earlier.

Just so you guys know I am seling a size 40 black calf suede cropped jodpur for 340 cad ( looking to make back what I paid)

They are brand new never worn but the left shoe has wear on the bottom from trying it on in my home. The right foot is mint. Again they were never worn outside. After some thought I realize I actually want a diff style.

Did you get charged customs from the delivery?
