Why is /fa/ so uncreative when it comes to shoes? You guys have the same basic easy mode sneakers in your collection. At least dunks , Qasas and even ozweegos are a big creative compared to 400 rod lavers

You're right, they're not knockoffs, but they're inferior versions of a clearly superior product in that of the Common Projects. I don't care about sneakers and I'm not a CP dickrider but I was tired of all the admiration that stans were getting for a relatively shit product. They just look bloated to me.

common projects are fundamentally just cupsole sneakers with a cardboard insole, same as any adidas

Been trying to rock these. I'm a cycling courier and wear these to college since I go to work immediately after.

they're cleats so they have a metal plate in the sole. They make a crunching sound when I walk on pavement and it's actually been a cool conversation starter

>why is /fa/ so uncreative when it comes to shoes
/fa/ folks post safe fits because it makes sense if a person is browsing for the first time that they would want to see which expensive ass shoes they should get if they only have enough money for one pair of shoes
that and because everyone who posts images/fits on /fa/ are traditionally looking for validation and want to appeal to the LCD of lurkers, I personally have seen plenty of non-traditional fits on this board, but they always incite an argument or sardonic response by someone trying to posture on the internet

This is bait but i gonna joke anyway.

The fact that you choose the common projects is because you are some sheep with no style or sense of originality. What it's Adidas Superstar for girls, it's the same this shoe for you, you can say this shoe is "Versatile or Minimalist", but it's the same shit.
You are the kind of guy who wear full black clothes because designers do it too.
Your clothes colors are: black, white, scale of greys, and stupid repetitive shit.
You are a white, skinny, beardless virgin, you live with your mom and study in a expensive college.
