Yeah a dude in here compared his Givenchys and CPs and the Givenchy leather was trash

 

[milesb]

Givenchy or common projects low tops? Which one has better quality?

I have both.  CP has softer leather & will 'age' faster (i.e crease faster, etc.).  But you'll have less sizing concerns with Givenchy.

But is the givenchy leather trash?

 I don't think anyone in here is a leather artisan. You've gotten multiple responses with people telling you the Common Projects leather is better and the givenchy leather isn't great. You'd have to handle a pair yourself in person and determine that yourself...

 

[milesb]

But is the givenchy leather trash?

Opinions are subjective.  I personally wouldn't call the pair I own 'trash'.  The leather on the recent SL/10 models are trash & the leather on these are no where near that quality.  However if you touch Givenchy leather & then touch CP, Bally, etc. leather you'll feel a difference.

I wont say they are trash. The CP's have a bit better quality leather, but they definitely will crease faster.

I feel like a lot of ppl re up on Achilles fast.

I haven't purchased any Achilles before. I know the hype/popularity of them but I just never got around to getting a pair. Went for the chelseas instead.

 

[tomdiginson]

My white Achilles with minimal wear began creasing after 1 wear and I noticed the white fading (although minor) in certain parts of the right pair of the shoe. I saw some kind white leather maintenance kit that I may purchase to give it a try on.

Here's a couple pics of the two. I know pictures can't speak on leather quality, but I thought I'd share anyway.

Thanks man. The givenchy'S sure look better

 

[uglymusa]

Do the gold fade on the givenchy's?

Not sure. I would suspect it would/could, but mine has held up.

 

[uglymusa]

Man someone help me find some common projects on sale. I really want the low top red ones

 

[ROYGBiV]

I knew I wasn't tripping when I saw my Achilles for the first time. They look like they will fade quick. In fact they kind off looked less white when outside.

I feel like every time Common Projects are brought up in this thread, my ears ring

@Uglymusa  I prefer the CP Achilles over the Givenchy Urban Knots. Another great alternative is the SL01. If you're a smaller size, they're on sale here:

https://www.italist.com/en/Men/Shoe...assic-Sneakers/5711100/5880626/Saint-Laurent/

I think @BlackChiney08  and some others were looking for the Harness Boots on sale? Pretty decent size selection here:

https://www.italist.com/en/Men/Shoes/Saint-Laurent-Shoes/5433897/5603422/Saint-Laurent/

If anyone likes the CP Achilles Mid, there have the Natural and Blush colorways on END for a decent price. Most sizes available:

Thanks for the heads up @echau but I'm holding out for the black calf wyatts. Even though that price is very good, I don't need another pair of black suede SLP boots as I just bought the Chelseas.

What size do you wear in other shoes? They are pretty much TTS IMO. I'm thinking about selling my pair.
