That's strange, my CP's I got last year were pretty uncomfortable. Sure, the leather is fantastic, but the solid rubber sole actually made my feet sore by the end of the day. I wasn't very impressed. They're one of my favorite shoes aesthetically speaking though, so I'd love to pick up a new pair if they've improved them. Is the fit itself any different width/length wise?
So the pair I picked up last year were also mid achilles--and I had a PAIN getting them on. And also the leather was very.."noisy" like I could here myself walking from the sound the shoe would make. Now unless I received a defected item or a fake pair (which can't be because I bought it from tres bien), this years version has drastically improved. This years version leather seems a lot more smooth and doesn't make those "leathery" sounds as I walk. Also, I can slide my feet right into the shoe. I can't remember how the inside lining was for last years version, but this years is fully lined and padded with the same smooth leather that is on the exterior. I think they also added a little hump at the bottom of the shoe, possibly making it more comfortable? I wore them all day for 2 days and the comfort level to me was on the same level as balenciaga arenas/pleated, if not better.
