Common Projects now in store

Following on from the last post on Common Projects, here we are to let you know that this season's shoes have arrived in store.

Five hole slip on:



I've discussed this shoe at great lengths with a lot of people. Its a classic style taken from early 70s California skate styles thats proved to be a timeless sneaker. They're produced with super soft nappa combined with fine Italian suede two-tone detail toe, tongue and rear heel details which does justice to the reinterpretation of such a classic piece. The staple gold stamp just tops off what we see as one of CP's strongest shoes so far.

Desert Boot



The Desert Boot is back, and available in light and medium grey. A classic CP piece but this season with a much lower sole profile and constructed from super soft Italian suede (above) or a washed Italian Nubuck leather (below). The photos speak for themselves, quality construction, refined design and beautiful materials.



Tournament low black



Ask me to pick my favourite piece from the store this season, it'd be a tough choice, but I may have to go for this classic CP Tournament. They're made from 100% Nappa leather, with a hand stitched sole and classic gold stamp. They're so simple it hurts. However, they're constructed with love and attention to detail, and the materials will get better year on year with every scratch you can achieve. Wear them with your favourite denim or some rolled up chinos, socks or no socks, they'll look amazing.
