Maybe I’m missing something, but I don’t find these very interesting. The navy ones are quite smart and no doubt the materials are good quality or something, but you’d have thought the combined creative input of three different companies could come up with something a little more unusual than a white shoe…
nah you aren’t missing anything, they knocked off a Stan Smith. Except they’ll offer it in colors Adidas won’t do or wouldn’t do. This is a zero risk shoe, as such it’s not exciting or even interesting…
Of course they could have done something beyond placing a logo, and a pair of colorways. But honestly, there are so many retarded shoes out right now– brands are trying to be more and more “adventurous.” Really, it just ends up being embarrassing.
Therefore, simple decisions of styling that create a wearable basic that achieves both heightened levels of interest from the sneakerhead as well as the more considered consumer. I don’t think the point was to reinvent the wheel, but really put a simple, yet new touch on a classic.
So, you’re right in suggesting that you’re not exactly missing anything.. but that might be the point.
these are simple and classic. i can wear these everyday, with all these sneaker brands going crazy with loud ass prints and loud ass colors its refreshing to see simplicity, good work. thank you. from a classic sneaker head.
where can I find these in the us?
