Does anyone here own something other than the god damned solid Achilles?

CP makes tons of awesome shit, but all I see here is plain white/black Achilles.
the black looks great, it's basically the cleanest silhouette for someone who doesn't want to venture into a classic shoe.

the white on the other hand? few people can pull them off.

that being said, why don't I ever see anyone talking about their glorious bballs? their suede shoes? their combat boots? their slipons?

fuck you guys don't know what you're missing out on by playing the safe, minimalism game all the time. have some personality guys.

>>9461193
White CP's being versatile is a misconception because they're white we automatically thing 'goes with anything' as white is 'neutral' in the colour spectrum

White shoes call attention to their colour, White CPs call attention to both colour and fit. If your fit does not match the silhouette of the shoe, the shoe is distinguished from the rest of the outfit

>isn't that a good thing?
no-
Only call as much attention to any individual piece of clothing as the rest of your outfit can handle. That's why we don't go out and buy Walmart clothes and top it off with $200 Givenchy T-shirts.

Black is /versatile/ because black does not say 'look at me look look im bright and shiny' like white does, so your outfit calls less criticism to itself.

>>9461219
>mid highs

what?

I have the bball nubuck in navy, I know how to professionally alter shoe colour so I'll be blacking them out soon

>black nubuck CP bbal highs
they don't make a black, they have a black suede, it's nice but it won't be as nice as my black nubuck.

>> No.9461298

>>9461184
Bballs are cool, slip on models are shit, vintage his are cool as fuck, combats are lame, Chelsea are good sometimes (never the sneaker sole, only the heeled models), and derbies are cool but overpriced.

Get over it, most good brands have one particularly hyped pieces.

Also fuck CP for only releasing light blue and pink suede for women, that's bullshit and my feet aren't small enough to fit into the largest ones.

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
maybe I should specify loafers?

even casual slipons are nice with shorts.

and why do you want to wear pink suede shoes?

>>9461303
the closeups on the black suede make them look cheap af.
overexposure makes it look like there's a bunch of pieces of lint stuck to it, like it's some clingy cheap faux suede material.

but I digress, they look good

OP sage advice for you here. You will never be settled even if you got CP's. You will want to waste money endlessly because you are insecure. Just fucking love the shit you have. Those look the same as any other white leather sneaker.

I agree with your opinion though, CPs get circle jerked here a bit too much that some people think of it as the end to all means. Which is fucking stupid because it's obviously isn't, they might as well cop everything that tasteless asians buy in the meantime.
