Generic Man – Academy Hi

I’ve been doing a decent job of Gilt abstaining, but I saw these kicks and had to spring for it. I love Generic Man. All of their shoes are hand-made in Portugal and feature high quality materials. Right here is a pair of the Academy Hi from Generic Man’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection. Beautiful shoe featuring smooth perforated suede with a rubber tip, leather accents, lined with leather on the inside, and a gum sole. Very nice deep navy color. Super stylish, great all-purpose sneaker. Would look badass dressed up or down.
I’m wearing these bad boys here at Gigantic Studios.



How do these compare with Common Projects? Generic and CP seem to share similar design cues and philosophies, was hoping Generic would be a little cheaper. CP price hikes have been insane past few seasons.
gilt groupe has so much of my money, it’s insane.
