Beaters general thread.

My meme parchment Chuck IIs just died on me, and I'm in need of new beaters. I'm thinking of copping black Chuck IIs as they're on sale for 67,95€ right now, but I feel like trying out something new for a change. What are some effay beaters? I'm looking for

show me a sneaker which cost only that much to make, even the cheaper sneakers cost around $20 to produce, plus you don't calculate with shipping costs, insurance, customs and advertising

right, you'll pay more than what it costs to make a shoe, but who the fuck will produce and sell shoes for zero profit or even for a loss?

100 EUR is sounds an all right cut off point for general sneaker brands, anything which is more expensive than that is obviously a gimmick and doesn't worth the price, i prefer to pay around 80 EUR, but i buy most sneakers on sale

The roshe is definitely better in terms of the upper, can't really comment on the tanjun's sole.

this mindset is why you'll never be /fa/. leave it behind, my friend. at the end of the day you they're just shoes, meant to be worn, used, and abused. marks of wear add authenticity and character.

CT II is the worst. The original chuck was designed to be basketball shoes. Hightop sneakers were always meant to be worn with athletic shorts. So the whole chuck's aesthetics have a lot of basketball feels to it. But CT II kind of took it to casual level where it ended up not fitting in both casual world nor athletic world. It's like a terrible copy of rick owens. Also lunarlon, wtf, real athlete feet don't require such thing.

Anything that was created in the past is always better because the motivation behind the design is not degenerate.
