what about national standard edition 3 (middle)?

They use the same sole, have it stitched on as well, and the toe cap makes it look less like a wannable CP clone.

hm, here where I live, CPs are 300 Eur and NS are 185 Eur, so it's more like 60%. Where are you located?

If you're willing to go cheaper, I think topman and asos both offer CP-ripoffs that have at least a stitched sole.

>> No.8169984

>>8169974
central europe, and both cps and ns are almost impossible to find in the shops

on the web cps are (like you've said) above 300 eur and ns are around 200 pounds so it's really not that much of a difference

depends on your budget then. Under 150 Eur, and you'll be stuck with asos/topman. Maybe if you're lucky, you can cop NS from menlook (operating from france) on sale.

the thing with the current SS are, that they don't come in all white. (apart from details like the thicker padding give them a bulkier silhouette etc.)

The only remotely uni-colored (as in no big green/blue patches and logos) SS is the paint one in that pic

I know. wearing all blacks atm. But they don't come in all white as of now. Prev. iterations were all white, but current ones all have that biig unsightly color patch.
