No Summer Achilles though - hope they'll follow soon.

I guess some buy white and take good care of it to keep it looking fresh and clean, but I personally like them better beat up and worn out.


I feel so dirty beating up $350 shoes like they were a pair of vans.

Damn, did they get a price increase? I like the achilles high top but I feel like $432 can be used on something better.

And I guess they do come with new laces and with a bit of a worn-in look.

Hmm.. yeah but they are shoes after all right? CPs generally are tough as nails so I don't worry too much about beating them up b/c I know they will last way longer than Vans.

Do all of the SS10 pairs come with 2 pairs of laces? That's what it says on TBS.

at the beginning, i hated wearing my cps anywhere though because i was afraid of getting even a slight amount of dirt on them. now that ive eased up a bit, i enjoy them much better i think

No point in owning shoes if you do not use them. I think value is what you get out of the shoe. I own 5 pairs of common projects but I have never paid more than $200, but I treat them like any other shoe.
