the thing that common projects have, that no one else seems to be able to replicate, is the proportion of the shoe (and toe box). the ones above are so far off.

Bought some achilles about 3 years ago and they are knackered now, the upper by the ankle has ripped down to the midsole. No proof of purchase as ebay job - does anyone have any experience about sending them in to common projects for a repair/replacement?

“The price to do the drsole is £130 plus as they have curious outsole stitch detail I would need to do the outsole stitch by hand which will be £40 on top.”
This was what I was quoted for my Virgil’s plus p&p aswell.

Anyone with experience of sizing on the resort classic
They look like a super high quality tennis shoe like a club C but well made
Do they have the squeak issue above also ?

I get blisters on my toes after wearing bballs for about 2hrs. They seem to fit ok overall and I'm sure a size up would be too big (I have Achilles that are a size up and they are too long). I'm trying to stretch them with shoe trees but probably have to accept CPs ain't for me.

Anyone seen or picked up the suitsupply white bball in this sale? Was hoping to pick up a backup pair

So annoying as the bballs are the correct length for but hurt my pinky toe after a couple hrs of wear - I'm trying the shoe trees again and will wear them for short periods to see if I can get them to work. Probably will have to try to sell them, though.
Edit - I've ordered some shoe stretchers and a spray from Amazon for £20. Lets see if that helps.
Tempted to try the Achilles copies from A day's march.
