As a runner, I had an aversion to sneakers with thick flat soles because they don't look very flexible and creates big creases on the toe box. But ever since I started upgrading my wardrobe, I've been more accepting of the style. I'm loving this series! Keep doing more on products most people are on the fence with.

Your assessment is pretty much spot on! A lot of competitors are coming up with a similar product, but I still think CP looks the best. I got a pair for around $250 when they were on sale at Farfetch. It's still not cheap for a pair of sneakers, but it's worth it at the reduced price.

i owned these and absolutely loved them. the leather itself is pure quality, they feel and look amazing. I got a lot of compliments for these and most people didn't even know the brand. They'll feel uncomfortable at first (like all leather sneakers honestly) but once they mould to your feet it's just pure joy. Yes, the price is high, but you are paying for premium material and superb design, not to mention their durability. I would pay those 400 euros again if i had too.

I'm loving this new series Ashley! I love how you mentioned how the price isn't worth it for the average consumer and that many brands produce the same shoe but to a lesser extent and for a fraction of the price. Sometimes people get caught up in fashion that it blinds them when they purchase items (eg. 400 dollar sneakers) and they just justify it by saying "the quality is the best on the market" WHICH MAY BE TRUE, however, it is just a shoe. I've purchased a cheap knock-off of white vans from Urban Planet for $10 and they were terrible and broke within 2 months of wearing them. But I've also purchased Chelsea boots from HM and they still hold up perfectly even though I've worn it in the rain, snow and probably about 3 times a week since August 2017. Cheap things can last a long time, as long as you care for them.

Great review of Common Projects. I would be very interested in your views on Duffel Coats. You haven't done any content on them and they are great. I recently bought a Gloverall mid-length Duffel and it's awesome. It's in the same family as the overcoat and peacoat, but probably a bit more casual. Would love to hear your thoughts.

Personal preference with everything. I find these to be the best quality sneakers I’ve ever owned, after one year of wearing everyday I still get asked “Hey, are those new sneakers?” Because they look flawless still. The leather is buttery and comfortable from the first wear, I’ve walked all over London and Paris in these and not even got a blister. With everything you get what you pay for, I’ve had cheaper brands like Stan Smiths, and Zespa’s and they are not even close to CP’s

Hi - great videos. Appreciate the info you share constantly. Need advice - looking for a luxe pair of white sneakers. Had the Achilles at the top of my list.... but now I am looking at Tom Ford’s Warwick (all white). Any comparison or impression on the TFs? I understand the different price points, so really more focused on style. Ideally planning to wear them as casual shoes, but certainly would be open to pairing with office wear (light suiting) during the summer months. Thanks!

Hi. Do you need to know your exact size when ordering common projects. Depending on the shoe type, manufacturing etc, I nearly always have to try on a half size up or down when trying down in a shop. What I'm trying to say is, if they didn't fit , can they be sent back for a different size?
@locutusdborg126
@locutusdborg126 5 жыл бұрын
Yes, they can be sent back. They run about a half size large so keep that in mand. I like some room in the toe so I just ordered my size, but if you want them more snug, order a half size lower. I got mine last week and love them.. BTW, if they are a little roomy, just lace them a bit tighter and they should be fine.

This silhouette was taken from the Adidas Stan Smith so it is really only the materials and craftsmanship that gives them some credibility. That being said, Koio and Oliver Cabell are fairly competitive in their price range as well.

And yes you can walk miles in them, I’ve walked all over Paris and London in CP’s and not even got a blister. Hope this helps you!

Beside the price, these shoes fit in a very strange way. I didn't know I need to buy them in a smaller size and to wait for them to stretch. Because they are so narrow and long they will become super long for anyone with above average width. Also there is a major problem with heels slipping from the shoe as the heel area gets very wide when stepping on it which releases the heel from its place. I think they should create a wider version of these shoes because I bought them - and I am frustrated with the fit.

Love the CPs design and agree its the best quality whit sneaker out there but the price just kills my chances of buying a pair. That said another con worth mentioning is the narrow toe box. Unfortunately I have wide feet so unless CPs are made with my type of foot in mind, my foot will have to squeeze into the shoe. That said the best ide foot white sneaker worth trying is one from the Dutch brand Filling Pieces. Check them out!

for regular shoppers who don't care about quality, just get the cheap knockoffs at H&M, Zara, or some Stan Smiths.

You could always go towards an all white leather chuck taylor low ankle shoe. They're just as clean looking, and it's produced by Nike which is and has been known for quality. Some go for $45-75, depending on the style.

Not worth their retail price. However, you can find these on sale every now and then; especially from Endclothing. My two pairs cost 249 & 259 USD. Lanvin makes a similar style that is around the same price point as some Common Projects shoes and those are worth it on sale around 350 USD. If you want a similar shoe on a budget, go with COS (higher end H&M). Their sneakers retail for a bit over 100 USD, but can be bought for maybe 60 USD. There's definitely going to be a difference in quality, but what you get out of the COS sneakers, for the price, is pretty good value.

@mr big try to differentiate "people" and collectors, or hypebeasts. not even 5 percent of the world population spend more than 300 on a shoe.

Hi, I own a silver pair of Achilles low (I didn't find any other statement shoes that was as cool as this one) and I would say a strong contender would be the french brand National Standard with their Edition 3. The white ones are almost perfect, more comfortable right from the start and the price point is largely lower!

There are multiple ways to get common projects for a fraction of the price. I got my brand new for $200 from Grailed. For that price I'd say they're definitely worth it. I would never pay full retail for these sneakers.
