Common Projects F/W 12-13

[ImaPro]

A size 42 would probably be fine...

I'm a 9.5-10 in nike and wear 41.

if you're an e width, the achilles may not fit you well.  45 will be too narrow.  You could try 46

Thanks. Guess I will wait until I get a chance to try em on!

I purchased a pair of the Achilles Low Suede in Grey from Ssense this past winter and I've only been wearing them for a few months (just walking no running around in them) and now and have a tear near the lace inlets. I bought CPs because they're known for their quality but this was pretty disappointing.
Does anyone know how I should go about repairing/replacing these? Should I contact ssense? or common projects directly? I've sent the main common projects email address from their site an email already and haven't gotten a response back yet. Anyone else experience this with the suede cps?

Those shoes look ******* trashed.

They're a full suede shoe and won't wear like a full leather.

You've obviously been doing things that aren't meant for soft suede shoes...I have pair of CPs from 06 and all so grey bball suede highs and they have no tears, just normal wear/dirt. And honestly imo suede wears much better than leather since the creases don't show as much.

This question has been asked many times before but I'm new here so bear with me. 
I'm a sz US 10 in most shoes(Nike, Adidas, Vans) so would I size down to an EU 42?

not to add to the confusion but I'm size 10 too and after many research I concluded 43 would be OK because people say 9,5 US is equal to 42 in CP and I wanted my feet to be able to breath.

I'm a 9.5-10 in nike and wear 41.

you're the first person I've ever heard saying that. people would suggest 42 for 9.5-10 in nike.

Depends how wide your foot is. If you're 9.5-10 in nike with a narrow foot, I'd suggest a 41.

depends on the model as well. if you are talking achilles low, you could also be a 43 if you have a bit of a wider foot. im an 11 in nikes and a 43 was just too tight, so i went with a 44 that was a little too long, but fit in the width much better.

Funny, just has the EXACT same issue or that EXACT same model a few days ago. A tear appeared after 10 days only walking at the office. Check the pic.
Retailler agreed for a return and refund. Do the same. A shame for CP !

It seems to me that you guys lace your sneakers up dry tightly, especially across the ball of your foot. This is going to create a lot of stress on a fairly thin leather. Maybe try a brand like Buttero, which uses a much thicker leather. Or get the winter leather Common Projects.

Thanks for the help everyone. I am looking for a pair of white Achilles mids. So I guess I should consider either an EU 42 or 43.

Yeah, what's with all the Rambo lacing?!

 

[Distorbiant]

wow those suede sneakers are a joke.

CP should be embarrassed.

I had 12 CPs and I'm so disappointed.

Just got reply from Tres Bien,

They told me to send it back to them and issue a refund.

It seems like lot of people have this issue, because Tres Bien didn't even ask me anything about this sneakers.
