Haven't lurked here in years, are CP Achilles still the go-to, recommended low top white sneaker?

Give me some ideas.

>> No.11898675

>>11898636
yeah cps are still top tier imo

some will says gats are better

some will say stans are okay for the price


i prefer cps though

i do like gats as well but i like the black colorways more than the white

Yeah poorfags are always jumping on shit to hail the death of CPs, like that one time a one direction member was caught wearing them or something, but as far as I can see theyll always be too expensive to become a meme fuccboiii trend like stans.

Stans are still good for the price IMO, I still wear mine because nothing better has turned up in that price range that is still clean and minimal. Those Reebok club C 85s are getting popular but only because of the 90s revival trend, if you aren't into the whole retro jacket thing there not much point, they're nowhere near as clean as stans.

Margiela GATS look beautiful, I hope to cop some on sale soon :)

Gustin White Low Top are reasonably priced at $149 and look almost identical.
But they have a weird store where you can't immediately buy them. You have to fund the production fist and have to wait months for shipping.

Wings & Horns Low Whites are far better than CPs in terms of comfort. Also, the leather is just as soft but seems to be a bit thicker. It also has metal eyelets and will last you longer.

I own both but find myself reaching for my CPs less and less.
