Hate hairy suede. Always looks like an old floor rag after a couple of wears.

Do people rate bballs? Only ever gone with achilles but thinking of copping these…

I say it all the time, bballs are probably the best ever all white trainer. That picture doesn’t do them justice. Good price too(paid £280 for mine the other month) and yes size down 1 more from your usual CP size.

Edit: plus they are the OG version which is even better!

I agree. Love my Bballs. Rate them over my Achilles.

As said above, size down one from Achilles.

I've only had suede/nubuck slip ons and they have broken in quickly - certainly quicker than regular leather achilles.

Never go in to Mr P sale I’m afraid. I also checked the US sale and they haven’t in that either so doubt they will in UK this time.

Slip ons are wearable straight away Shame, had the black perforated version a few years a go they were sound
