Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I rarely write reviews so heads up: this product is a stinker. First the good: you can pick these up on amazon for sub $50 if you get lucky, I think I paid around $70-80. They are very comfortable and stylish, if you want an affordable take on the clean classic leather sneaker that brands like common projects have turned into an (expensive) modern icon. Great, what’s bad then? I’ve only worn them about 20 times, and they are now unwearable. I questioned the leather from the start and decided to try to be extra careful with them, but the leather started deteriorating right off the bat, with my pant leg wearing through the nice brown color on the the left shoe and into the lighter color underneath, see my pic. Like seriously, I think the top color is airbrushed on or something. Then the color started coming off the left shoe’s toe, revealing light brown underneath. The last straw was just now I accidentally stepped on a piece of packing tape and it touched the toe of my shoe. I pulled it off, and along came the color of the leather! Now the shoes are completely unwearable. Wtf? Weirdly, the leather on the right is also degrading noticeably, but not nearly as fast as the left shoe. My recommendation: if you want a shoe that will look fly for an event or two, these are a decent pick, but if you want to use this look as part of your regular wardrobe then look elsewhere: the breeze from a butterfly wing can take the color off these puppies 🦋
