Will I ever find any decent pair of derbies that isn't expensive as shit?
I wanna cop the CP's but they're far past my budget.
Is there any good pair I can find for <350$ ?
Help me out, /fa/.

i'm in the same boat OP. i've been looking for some affordable derbys that aren't those shitty postmans for so long

well yeah of course they will try to justify their purchase.

It's an average derbie, nothing special really.

Idk
I heard a lot of bad shit about them creasing really fast.
Regardless, I'd get them in a heartbeat if I had the skrilla

No matter what brand you get, they're going to crease, and probably fast. Unless it's a super hard shell with no flex (which would probably hurt).

lol no

quality leather can crease without fucking splitting and cracking or doesnt crease at all

these are garbage, china doc martens crease better, not even making this up

Someone post that picture of the derbies with horrible creases.

The leather is horrible, I'd advise against, much better shoes you could pick up for $500+. It's all just hype.

>> No.9066972

hmm...cole haan has a lot of em. they're not the best shoes in the world, but you don't want to spend that kind of money. i'd definitely check cole haan.

>> No.9067000

as stated earlier, they crease a lot and NOT in a good way. I would definitely advise looking towards other brands. I had a pair and sold them on ebay. I picked up some Raf derbys on sale and am much happier.
