Spring is here and while some items in your closet don't need to be switched out, there are definite staples that need to be brought in. White sneakers are tricky during the winter, but perfect for the upcoming season. The Original Achilles from Common Projects is a classic with the brand. The Italian leather ensures that you'll be rocking these for a minute, with no worries of it falling apart. Don't trip though, because a dirty sole is still cool. You can cop a pair for $375 at Tres Bien Shop. Pricey, yes. Worth it, hell yes.

Had the perforated 08s and they didn't last more than a year and a half. The sole disconnected at the left heel and piece of leather holding the laces ripped off the side of the shoe when I went to tie it one time. I wish I could justify buying another because they're beautiful shoes, but the idea that they last longer than other shoes is ridiculous. Get some Rod Lavers and call it a day.
