hey /fa/, are there any common project look-alikes/copies for like, under 100 bucks? I really love cp's but don't really feel like spending 250+ on them

>> No.7392343

just cop canvas Vans or Keds

There are some on Zara but I wouldn't suggest going with a knockoff, I've heard they are terrible quality

I avoid cheap leather like AF1 Nike cause it cracks at the air holes a lot after wear. Some nice collabs out there though with better leather.

why do people insist on asking for cp lookalikes.
it's not like w/ cps you're paying for the great design or an innovative look, you're paying for the quality materials and construction.

why don't people just ask "w2c minimalist/clean white sneakers"

because i infinitely prefer the design of cp's over anything else i can find

when someone asks for cp lookalikes and someone else insists upon chuck taylors or af1's, it's like if someone were to ask for skinny jeans and instead you suggested boot cut jeans

i honestly don't know how you browse /fa/ without respecting the nuanced preferences and tastes of other individuals

>> No.7393745

>>7393716
If you infinitely prefer the design then just get the fucking shoe

You won't find anything that looks exactly like it without sacrificing something crucial that made them special to begin with if you stray out of that pricing bracket

These are my Kents.

They do not look as good IRL as CP's but are miles above anything else you'll find, at least in the price range.

A comfortable, well made minimalistic shoe for $100.

I suggest you save for the CP's regardless, as in the long run it's a better investment and what you actually want.

They run a little small. Like I said I'm a 44, which would be a 10, but I read on a thread on Sufu that they run small so I went with 11 (45) and the fit is perfect.
