/fa/ - Fashion

both

White lows
Black mids
Someone sell me a used pair of white ones ffs

>>6911927
nigger I spent $20 and bought a pair of tredsafe that look exactly like the black ones. They are not impressive at all, they are not fashionable at all, and they do not look good beat up. White will look slightly better because it might stain a bit. CP's are a old troll that idiots here don't know about

always hated how shiny these are. also, only canvas sneakers look good beat up.

black ones look a lot like kva and raf
both are great but i would go with black

dumb question .everyone on /fa/ will tell you white.

i say go for black, they look better with most other clothes imo. the whites only look good with fits like pic related to me.

>>6911927
lmao
>>6911936

>>6911960
lol i was thinking shoes for crews as well whenever i see shoes like this

>>6911943
Was actually planning on buying new Raf Velcros in black until I realised that I was going to use 400€ shoes as beaters.
300€ is much more reasonable.

I'd buy white Velcros in sz 40 in a heartbeat though.

Are CPs truly high quality or is it a troll?

>>6912189
They're among the best basic, stripped down sneaks you can find at a reasonable/workable price point.
That gold lettering, tho...

>>6912212
i hate the gold digs
they would look so much better without it and it kind of defeats the purpose of a simple high quality sneaker with no visible branding

>>6911927
I got a pair today OP, sorry they aren't beat up. I would go with white

>>6912212
>>6912231
looks like the new season has tonal lettering

>>6912212
>reasonable/workable price point
this is what fuccbois really believe

I own black CPs.

my cps had a hole at the heel after only 3 months of daily wear
they're at the cobbler right now. shit sucks

>>6912255
are you talking about a tear in the lining?
that happened to me, i repaired it with duct tape

>>6912270
yes right here about that size on both shoes

>>6912278
the more likely explanation is that you aren't rotating them out, you aren't changing your socks every day, or you have a lose fit causing heel slippage.

>>6912290
they were my only shoes for 3 months
changing socks every day
they fit tight

i'm worried that this might happen to my geos because it's made out of the same material and they fit half a size too big

are cp's played out at this point?

>>6912317
does it matter
do u like the shoes or not?

>>6912317
maybe on the inter web

buy what u like tho

>>6912326
Thanks, exactly what I was looking for.

I've got grey ones

>get holes in them
>good quality

Heh.
Could anyone recommend actually well made sneakers pls

w2c generic white leather sneakers similar to Cps for a cheap price

I got special orthopedic soles that I put in all my shoes to fix my posture. My feet are wide, so when I put on sneakers and walk, the leather usually bends outwards (extends, I guess) since my feet are both wide and higher than normal (because of the sole).

I'm searching for really well made sneakers that'll hold up against this and won't bend, ever. Should I get CPs? Are they really the best quality for the price?

Moreover, because of those wide feet, I often size up to feel comfortable. Is it a bad thing?

>>6912879
i'm the guy with the hole
they are really well made it's just that one part

>>6912962
check the adidas on oipolloi, they have two p minimal pairs

alt:
all saints (if they still do them)
kent wang
svensson (not sure how much cheaper these are)

>>6912995

New Balance

>>6913009
I have some. They do bend and widen after some time.

>>6912995
the last on cp's sneakers is super anatomical aside from some extra space at the toe, and will be pretty unforgiving of inserts. they're also pretty narrow. they're good shoes, but it doesn't sound like they're appropriate for your feet.

>>6913007
those kent wang ones are pretty piff thanks b now i can finally cosplay shinji

>>6913005
>it's just that one part
Why? I mean what causes it?
Does it make the shoe more fragile or is it just unaesthetic?

What makes you think the shoes are really good apart from that?

>>6913028
my older cps are actually self lined, meaning that the same leather that makes the upper of the shoe was used to line it. newer cps seem to use a softer leather inside, which is probably more comfortable and is essentially already broken in, but is probably weaker than the hide used for the outside of the shoe. if nothing is done about it then you might damage the heel cup. my fix was just putting down duct tape.

>>6913030
Goddamn.
What should I look at then?

I want really well made low top, entirely black leather sneakers for less than 450 dollars, which I can use inserts in without them widening.

Lanvin maybe?

>>6913045
lanvin fit the same as common projects.
cinzia aira... aria... whatever might accomodate you

>>6913054
>cinzia aira... aria
my nigger

>>6913054
Oh so I don't have a lot of choices...

Say I bought normal fitting shoes (like CPs) regardless.
Will my feet shape damage the shoe or its shape, or will I just feel uncomfortable in them?

>>6912317
no, the design is absolutely timeless, especially if you go for the achilles/chukkas, one of the most simple, effective, and best silhouttes i have ever seen from a shoe. great quality too, people say are they worth it, it's like buying a rolls royce when you've been driving a Skoda all your life. when ppl put it into a 'i could buy x amount of shoes for that price', yes you could however you will not be as satisfied w/ them as you would these and also if you were really into fashion you wouldn't have that frame of mind. you don't want to skimp on some Sambas when you could buy these and look a lot better

>>6913060
i have an older pair and i think they suck
no clue about the new shoes, they're totally different than mine tho

>>6913099
ull give urself hammertoes

>>6913104
Hammertoes seriously? Aren't you exaggerating

>>6913099
i have a wide foot as well, i own two pairs of cp's, one i got in the size i wear in every other shoe (12) and one sized down to a size 10, whilst i can get my foot in the size 10 one, at the end of the day there's stress along the outer sides of my feet and also to the sides of the heel, i sometimes get blisters and once had to walk home barefoot after being out for around 7 hours because it was agony lol. however the size 12 one is pretty comfortable now they're broken in a bit. both of my cp's are in suede so leather should break in better than mine. is it the achilles your after?

>>6913135
Wide or really wide?
Like, when you take a step with a shoe on, does the shoe widen because of your feet?

Why did you size down on one of the pairs? What's the point?

On the size 12 one... Has the suede widened over time in a noticeable way? Has the shoe changed its shape?

Yeah I'm looking at black achilles low tops.

Since I have inserts though, do you think I should buy?

>>6913191
when i first got them yah a bit, but now the shape hasn't changed that much at all really
i dunno i have a pair of nb 574's (the bulkier ones) and they were uncomfortable when i first got them

Common Projects run a lot bigger then what they are so you're supposed to size down (they fit long and narrow)

if i were you i would see if anywhere near you carries them and go see for yourself or order some from somewhere and send them back if not

What's the sizing like on Common Projects?

I'm a UK size 8, what should I be getting?

>>6913264
size one european number down

>>6913270
So 42s will be too big then?

>>6913264
I'm a UK8
I went 41 in CP's

>>6913279
w2c cooking degree

>>6913277
i'm a 42 and wear 41
pretty tight but i wouldn't size up

41 should be fine for you

>>6913279
>>6913292
Well shoot

There's a pair currently at a rather low price that's a 42. I wear size 8.5 fairly comfortably as well, would that allow for it?

>>6913285
You don't want to be a chef m8e
Unless you want 15 - 18 hour shifts
And STRESS

>>6913306
i would go for 41

>>6913279
haha holy shit, you're the same shoe size as me. Man, sorry dude, I had cp low white 41 and sold them way while back.

>>6913306
w2c? pls

>>6913313
huh

I will ponder it

>>6913321
No way man, you might buy them

>>6913323
hmmmm

>>6913225
So it hasn't changed enough to make the shoes ugly or anything? I wonder if my inserts will make it more noticeable. I'll try them on. Would low tops be subject to more widening than high tops?

Also yeah I'll size down. I usually wear 42 w/ inserts so 41 should be ok.
>tfw manlet feet

>>6913327
>No way man, you might buy them
maybe. no money right now. anyway, you don't want a shoe that's too big bro. I highly suggest you go with 41. how much are the 42's and condition?:

>>6913316
i love cooking though, i'm guessing you work at a more higher end resturant? btw it's the guy who pretended to be raf simons to that girl from the other thread kek

>>6913338
If you want mint condition 42 chukkas in navy + mint condition with box and everything I have a pair for £150
Worn like 3 times
Way 2 big for me

>>6913345
nah don't like the chuckas. really looking for some lows in white or mids in black.

>>6913352
Every catering buisness is the same
Long hours
Lots of drugs/drink
Mad stress
Suits me well though because I can't sit still for a minute and I genuinely love cooking
If it makes you happy then by all means go for it

>>6912243
Someones too poor to buy CPs

>>6912326
oh my gosh, they look so sweet beat up
thank you very much

>>6913338
hm ok may post them on a bit

CPs aside, what sort of sneakers are good for autumn? I've only really got some white converse style high tops and the canvas is not going to hold up well in shitty english rain.

>>6913405
Haven't really worn mine that much because it's been way too much but they feel soooo sturdy
Like they can handle anything
My go to fall/winter shoe unless it snows as of now

>>6913427
>unless it snows
Why?

Can't CPs handle snow?
What about rain?

>>6913427
That's nice but I said CPs aside, now you're just making me jealous. I mean I actually could afford them but I can't justify spending £250 on sneakers just yet.

How's the quality on those Kent Wangs? Also w2c them in the UK.

>>6913450
the salt and slush on the sidewalk is bad for leather, regardless of how sturdy it is. it could probably survive it, but why subject it to that when you could just wear an appropriate shoe?

>>6913455
>>6913450
They probs could handle snow but the idea of wearing mine in the snow puts me on edge lol
I dunno why
Don't cop kent wangs
Lurk ebay m8e
I got mine on ebay from some guy in 'straya
£115 but like £40 shipping lol
Keep an eye out for a deal and snap them up a$ap but don't pay full retail

>>6913474
Will lurk

Why not KWs out of interest? Are they particularly bad or just not as good as what I could be getting?

>>6913469
what the fuck

>>6913469
>an appropriate shoe
Such as? I'd just wear my NB beaters

But apart from the salt, CPs handle water?

>>6913490
Kent Wang looks like cp's retarded cousin. Not to mention that the leather used in those kw are so shitty. You're better off buying Jack Purcell leather.

>>6913506
They look pretty similar to me. What makes them retarded?

>>6913493
ive worn mine in the rain.

>>6913521
>CCP drip
are they actually good

Fuark I got navy CPs that work great with any casual fit and god damn they are fucking tanks. Worth every penny.

>>6913571
i don't know, i don't own them and i don't really want to cop them

>>6913645
>navy
Huh. As versatile as black ones?

>tanks
Is the leather really super resistant?

>>6913279
>>6913270

I'm a UK 9, EU 43 in most sizes, but I have pretty narrow feet, should I still size down to a 42 or just go for the 43?

>>6913703
not him but fuck both black and white cps, id never get them in those

im sorry i feel like an asshole

>>6914184
I read that those are awkward as hell to actually move around in. Are they? I've been thinking about copping

>>6914184
Thanks, what color were those CPs originally?

Neither OP

You get the Acne Adrian instead. Looks better and no where near as many people have them

>>6914183

Always jumping at an opportunity to post the almost falling apart cps you bought second hand.

>>6914222
walking up stairs is a little annoying walking uphill is slightly more annoying. thats just the zespys tho the zespy track pants will be fine. either way id cop if you like them its no big deal
>>6914235
black?

>>6914252
god forbid i postmy beat up cps in a thread asking for beat up cps

>>6914252
The guy asked for pics of beat up CPs

>>6914271
>>6914270
Everyday he posts his shitty cps whenever someone so much as mentions them or even sneakers.
You didnt even wear them in you bought them half falling apart.
>why

>>6914431
Just like that guy who posts the picture of himself in cropped pants and his old docs in every DM thread.

>>6914236
cant afford the CPs eh?

Huh I might have the same problem as the anon
Is it normal for the shoe to be widened by your feet when you take a step, or should the shape of the sneaker normally remain unchanged all the time ?

>>6916234

for me, cheap shoes bend and widen at the halfway point

CPs bend and widen at the ankle

>>6914147
Why the fuck do you have those laced so tight? You can actually see the lace pulling the eyelet open.

does anyone know how CP basketball highs size?

>>6914236
acne sneakers seem way too shiny to me. That's just like my opinion though, man.

>>6916295

and are achilles lows still running one size up or tts ?

>>6916295
should be same as the rest of cps

>>6914586
they aren't much cheaper

here's mine op[
i treat them pretty bad

>>6916344
dat toe box tho

>>6916346
they feel out when ur feets innem

>>6911927
Stop requesting cp faggot

OP here.

Velcros back into selection bc of gr8 customer service.

>>6913054
That's because they're made in the same factory right?

>buying lows

you fucking dumb cunt, get mids or highs

>>6916474
>Spending that much for shoes

>>6916251
Do you have wide feet?

Hey what are the highest quaity shoes money can buy

Like really really very well made stuff, which will hold up to anything and that will still look good when worn for years.

They also need to be quite comfortable

>>6916955
supras

>>6916973
lol

srsly tho

>>6916474
>soles are exactly the same
I know CP is italy, but is raf too?
do they both get their soles from the same place?
>>6916804
they last for fucking ever. less you try to beat them up like some tool

bought some patent lows a while ago, but the stupid bitch who sold them to me sold me a size 41 instead of a 42. full refund, but I miss them.

>>6917007
I meant sneakers, sorry.

>>6916955
Handmade stuff at some Shoemaker's shop, that everybody tells you he makes godly shoes.

what's the cutoff manlet status for european shoe sizes

>>6917012
Well, I guess you should just look into what a quality shoe looks like (stitches, leather...) and then judge for yourself. Maybe check some Footwear forums

why are cp's so perfect

>>6917010
raf were

theyre portugal now

yes the soles are the same

>>6917015
Bump for this

Are Lanvin sneakers any good

low top suede or nubuck ones

>>6914235

>>6911927
I personally think white shoes only look good with white jeans.

>>6918582

>>6918594
P cool might cop

>>6918621

I actually like the look of the adrian better

>>6918621

>>6914236
Question for Acne Adrian owners: Size up or size down? There's a local store that has a EU 44 pair but I'm usually a size US 12.

>>6916344
what backpack is that?

What about the black ones with the white soles? I think those look the best.

>>6919530
same sole as cps so probably down 1

Are CPs sometimes on sale on MrPorter?
