    Nice video! $400 is a lot, but then again...it is a luxury pair of sneakers like you said and it depends on an individuals style and how much they're willing to pay. QUALITY is a definite factor in determining the price. Keep up the great job.

    Great video! If you don't care for the look, definitely NOT worth it. Might as well get something much cheaper and as durable. But if you do, go for it! 👍👍

    common projects are so worth it. I have a simple pair of achilles low, and initially my plan was to only wear them for days out with my friend and semi special occasions. but after the first week of wear them, you realise that they are genuinely, the best sheo and now i wear them for absolutly everything. if you take decent care of them (i clean them once a month and apply leather cream to them once a month as well) they will last a very very long time. ive had mine for nearly 5 years, and only now am i considering, getting a new pair.

    How do they fit. Are they true to size or fit big?

    Koio or Oliver Cabell are also great alternatives

    Best and fastest way to break these things in.. get shoe stretchers. And always use shoe trees.

    Thanks for the awesome review. Regarding size, do you wear the same size in the retro as you do in the original achilles low?

    Appreciate the response. I've seen some say the retros fit differently than the originals, so it must depend on the individual.

    I have a pair of Greats and got them for 120$ and they are the best pair of shoes if ever had from the comfort, look, quality, functionality. There is not enough good things to say about them. One tip is to size one size down. Ex. I usually wear a 10 but a 9 fits like a gem.

    This sneakers is worth it compared to buying those resell prices yeezys or off-whites. I'm considering Koio to be the best alternative.

    Erick Mangali I don't have the Achilles low. But I do have the Achilles mid. It was the same sizing for me on both.

    got it. i think i'm getting a good idea of how i should size. last question is how do the 39's fit you? did they fit perfectly right off the bat? little big? little snug?

    Erick Mangali cps always fit tight in the front and a bit loose in the back. Toe box is super narrow and long. Prepare to break them in

    Zach B aces are softer. Cp are more tough. CP is also more durable in general. But both are top notch just in different ways

    swagger fly I did. Most people do. Really long break in time if you have wide feet. If you can, try them on in store.

    I have the all white Achilles lows and I’ve only worn them 3-4 times. Definitely still need to wear them a few more times to break them in
