It’s crazy how many people I see wearing Common Projects in the wild these days. (I work in SF.)

lol that's funny -- I spotted a pair in my suburban office building and was like "wow, they made it out here"

i just buy pleather keds from the medical uniform supply store and stencil some gold numbers on them. fashion hack

These would be really cool if not for the stupid text on the back.

beard papa, Tuesday, 14 January 2020 18:26 (four years ago) link

ugh. That's like the fourth time lately I see a shoe I like that turns out to have some stupid star wars tie in.

I wanted to buy a pair of sneakers for the dry months, especially that looks good with light colored chinos and shorts, but I'm stumped. I hate logos, so I'm kind of screwed right off the bat, but I can tolerate plain minimally labeled stuff like Chucks and some Vans. I usually end up just getting white Chuck Taylor 70s, and I'll probably end up doing the same this year.

Anybody have any recent experiences with Greats? I'm liking these, but for $119 + shipping, they'd better be more durable than your average pair of Vans.

white vans

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 21:39 (four years ago) link

fwiw there are plenty vans looking skate shoes thatre built much more durable for skateboarding, not sure what they are off the top of my head but im sure u cld track some down

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 22:31 (four years ago) link

i personally enjoy the process of trashing a pair of vans over the summer

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 22:32 (four years ago) link

i wash and bleach them a bunch so they get all soft and worn in

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 22:32 (four years ago) link

then i keep last years pair on backup for when im washing this years

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 22:33 (four years ago) link

any of the pro Vans are infinitely more durable than the regular ones

to a slightly suspicious degree in fact...

Number None, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 22:49 (four years ago) link

lol

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 22:58 (four years ago) link

not familiar with greats; may be a nice shoe in leather but eff paying $100+ for a knit sneaker that is by definition not durable.

call all destroyer, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 23:34 (four years ago) link

damn authentic pro is only $10 more than the regular ones https://www.vans.com/shop/authentic-pro-q0dqlz

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 23:37 (four years ago) link

you'll thank yourself for the ultracush too

Number None, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 23:52 (four years ago) link

kinda feel like its against the spirit of vans but i might give em a shot once the sun comes back

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 January 2020 23:53 (four years ago) link

i literally had never heard of this brand until i got a promoted instagram post for them like 5 hours ago

call all destroyer, Saturday, 25 January 2020 00:51 (four years ago) link

lmao that’s where i got it from!!

i did see some about a year ago in lisbon. It was on a tram. no idea what the model was but i was pretty taken with them, they seemed understated but somehow a little different. I craned my neck around to try and see the brand on the tongue through everyone else’s ankles.

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 25 January 2020 01:07 (four years ago) link

i think they're too dressed-up/euro for my current style but they would definitely catch my eye if i saw them around

rip van wanko, Saturday, 15 February 2020 20:39 (four years ago) link

I know my advice is a net negative on this thread, for reasons, but imho you should get those vans immediately

nathom, Saturday, 15 February 2020 23:33 (four years ago) link

until you’re up to 36 pairs of the same brand, there’s nothing to worry about

El Tomboto, Saturday, 15 February 2020 23:41 (four years ago) link

Oh not worrying at all. Bought them in about a month? I def need more. Prob some hight tops or whatever you call’em.
