Haha man this is so confusing.  Do you think they stretched about half a size a there abouts? If that's the case then I will get my exchanged for a 40 and then wait for them to stretch to like a 40.5
yes...its also very easy to use a shoe stretcher to get like a half size

Thanks Guys. I went to the store and tried them on again, the 40s were really pushing hard against my toes when I walked around in the store and the 41s fit fine and have a little room for my feet to move, so I'm going to stick with the 41s :)
If they do end up stretching out more I will just have to put an insole.

Update: came home with the 41s very excited. Girlfriend saw them on and straight away said the shoes are too long lol which is true, the shoe bends a little at the front when I walk giving you that "too long" feeling, back to the drawing board. Going back to the store tomorrow to get a 40 and will try wearing those in and hopefully they should stretch half a size which would then fit me perfectly.

I'm looking to buy some Blush CP's and wanted to know which store would be the best to purchase form within the UK. Would the 250 pound deal on END be appropriate?

Why is CP sizing so ridiculous.

I'm looking to buy Bball Lows but am very skeptical on sizing. I've read go true to size, go 1 down, go 2 DOWN!

I wear:

AJ1: 10.5
Nike Hypervenom: 11
Gustin (CP Achillies reps): 43
Vans Old Skool: 10.5

Please any help would be great.

*Bonus Question: Anyone know why coupon code for Tres Bien doesn't work for Canada?

Pretty simple tome, rule of thumb it fits a size large. I wear 10 and a 42 or 9 in most of their shoes

You also gotta look at the width of your feet. Mine are slightly wide but 41 in the premium Achilles fit me well even though some say like the retros they run bigger than regular Achilles? Not sure what to go for in chelseas.

Can anyone with multiple pairs of CPs give a breakdown of fit? I know OccultaVexillum posted recently their fit for a few models but they had long toes. He had a rare case where he sized up for the boots.

Be great if you can provide your brannock size along with your sizing in other brands for reference. Then your size for regular Achilles, retro Achilles, premium Achilles, bballs, tournaments and chelsea boots.

I posted some brands for reference above, unfortunately I don't have my brannock size, as for width my feet are slightly wide but nothing extreme.

I order CP chelseas and they should arrive tomorrow, size 43. Are those a good reference for Bball lows?

EDIT: I'd rather have my shoes a little tight than loose
