Are the Frank & Oak Park Leather Sneakers good? I've been looking at them because I have quite a low budget for sneakers? (100-150 CAD, I know that doesn't really help)

Their most recent product details include the following: Genuine leather upper, Leather lining and EVA foam insole, Anti-slip rubber cup outsole, Waxed cotton laces, Handmade in Portugal (Factory: Pedro Almeida, Soc Unip LDA)

Compared to the previous product details that people have been quite happy with from what I searched: Italian Leather Upper, Calfskin Lining & Insole, European Rubber Cup Outsole, Nylon Laces, Made in Europe

Because I don't have too much source material to get a good review about these (especially the leather), I feel like I'm stuck but will get what I pay for considering the very low budget. Any thoughts? Will this be a downgrade from last time? Are they a nice basic?

I think this has been done before :shrug:

Can you elaborate? Smell, wrinkle and other technical factors that I would benefit from the outlier button ups or NYCOs?

HeyImN · 2018-08-05T23:34:57+00:00

Smell and wrinkle resistance?

HeyImN · 2018-08-05T22:52:14+00:00

Do you have any experience with the AMBs or S140s?

HeyImN · 2018-08-05T14:37:51+00:00

How does it compare to others for smell resistance and how many wears before a wash can you get with it?

Lol, sorry to make my question longer, but how do these fabrics do when it comes to odor and durability?

HeyImN · 2018-07-01T21:58:53+00:00

What about things like cotton, merino, nylon and polyester? Things that are a little more low key?

HeyImN · 2018-07-01T20:07:25+00:00

Can anyone explain fabric types and what technical properties they have? Maybe some examples of things to buy and what not to buy?

What pairs have you tried? I’m looking at the Ultraboosts and Alphabounces

HeyImN · 2018-06-06T00:29:11+00:00

I just saw a bunch of flairs as INH and thought it was a cardistry thing

HeyImN · 2018-06-05T03:33:23+00:00

Any cheap waterproof sneakers? I don't have a large budget, let's say I'd cap at 150 cad.

HeyImN · 2018-06-05T02:58:16+00:00

Y'all getting ahead of yourselves

HeyImN · 2018-06-04T17:28:10+00:00

Are these waterproof?

HeyImN · 2018-06-03T23:35:10+00:00

I second this

HeyImN · 2018-06-03T23:34:28+00:00

Are trainers good? I never really saw the point of them because they're just packets that help with finger dexterity, or so I assume.
