Springcourts are just generally expensive. You can get some normal plimsoles for a solid chuck like price. Common projects are a little pricey but nice and come in low, mid and high with a variety of colors. German army surplus sneakers are nice. I've gotten compliments on mine. A few other members around here have them like whodini. APC x Nike court traditions are really minimalistic, made of pretty good leather and are nicely shaped. I'll try to post more as i think of them.


edit, another one: Surface to air has a couple canvas sneaker models that are pretty cool. Maharishi has similar looking ones that i like a lot as well. I think member asobu has a pair.
