So it is best to be careful with the sizing. Whilst you can return, of course, exchanges will rely on the shoe being available. We are doing a pretty closed production as it is all at naked so there is a very slight margin for error in the padded production.

If you are above the 41or anywhere near the line, then you are a 42. Always better in casual sneakers to go up.
Thanks! I'll measure again to make sure and contact CS to change the order to a 42.

I am usually a 47 in sneakers and I wear US 12 or UK11 in boots and shoes, I also wear size 45 with common projects. It was mentioned before that the SF-01s are slight shorter than the CPs, does that mean that I would need to size up to 46?
It is very slightly. Could you describe your foot please? And how does the CP fit? Have you tried using the size tool?

Generally speaking we have found that you should go for the same size as the CP.

I can wear the normal US D width when it comes to shoes and boots as long as they are not heavily tapered since I have a bunion on my right foot. I tried sizes 45 and 46 with CP and the 46s were just too long for my feet. I have not use the sizing tool yet. Regarding the sizing tool do I print it on an A4 paper?

Hi there, yes designed to be printed on A4, please make sure it is to 100% scale and once you put it together please measure the distance from the heel to the first notch to confirm it's been printed and put together accurately.

I would say you will end up being a 45 though as long as you dont find the CP 45 too tight.

I remeasured my feet and well, depending on a number of things such as posture my left big toe did go a bit over 41 or not. Likewise, my right big toe either crossed 40 or not. Normal measurements on paper ranged from 27 cm to 27.2 cm, so I am pretty much on the frontier. I have heard your advice @ArchibaldRoh and asked CS to change my order to a 42. I hope my feet won't float and can't wait to wear them :) Thanks for your work.

Cheers

The shipping shows "free shipping" on the website.
But when i am at checkout it states GBP8.99 for shipping.

Is shipping only free for certain countries?

I live in Asia.

Maybe a weird question, but would it be possible to buy a bunch of extra laces? I always break them in these type of sneakers and never found good replacements. Most don't look as good.

hi there sure, if you let customer service know about the request with your order they can help sort you out.

Went and tried on some CPs today in size 40 and 41. The 40 fit pretty snug and while it was mostly fine, the toe box was a little more cramped than I would prefer. The 41 wasn't as bad as I expected. The toes fit much better. The downside was that there was some room in the heel (less than a finger), so there was some slip. Still leaning towards a 41, what would you say @ArchibaldRoh?

Just me, but I would never get shoes that are too small. If the heel is a bit wide for you (if the heel is slipping, it's generally because the heelcup has a bit too much volume for your foot, the solution is not to jam your toes up to the front. You should have a half finger, at least. of space between te end your toes and the very end of the toe box. if you have a bit of heel slippage, probably the best thing to do is either wear thicker socks, or use a heel insert.
