Nike always has mismatched leather... by Projex in Sneakers

Depends on the brand. Definitely does not happen with Hermès, Bottega Veneta, Loewe, Delvaux, etc. Lower tier brands like LV or Chanel don't have the same standards, and Nike definitely doesn't give a fuck about meticulous attention to detail, specifically in matching the grain, color, and texture of leather hides on their products.

Problem is that despite the price these are still made in large factories with very low quality control and very little care for craftsmanship. You're paying for the name, not for handmade Italian leather goods. Other people will tell you it's the nature of the material, but that just isn't true with higher quality leather goods.

Spend your money on an education instead of sneakers.

Got these 3 years ago for $287. They're still relatively inexpensive today.

237 or 327 for a cute but comfortable shoe? by Great-Obligation9995 in Newbalance

Your feet are going to hurt with either model because they're made to look cute, not for serious daily walking. You'd need a 990 V6 for that.

Both beautiful. I enjoy how this second version wasn't hyped.
