Common Projects started about 3 years in NYC by designers Prathan Poopat and Flavio Girolami. I remember first stumbling upon them at TNT BLU and was taken aback a bit, because it had fit perfectly into a market I felt there was a void. A hybrid sneaker/shoe that you could get away with in the office (probably not in red), and remain cool on the avenue in. I remember telling a friend of mine that I wanted to fill that "dress sneaker" void, she thought it was great idea, but was quickly subject to some fierce competition.
My birthday is steadfastly approaching, I'm hoping I'll be able replace my other red shoes with these badboys!
