Every man in the know is aware is that Common Projectsโ Original Achilles low-top leather sneaker is the best clean white casual shoe in the game.
Made in Italy and featuring all the classic details, including a round toe, lace-up fastening and rubber midsole, each pair is gold hot-stamped with a serial number to remind the keen observer that they arenโt your average pair of Adidas Continentals.
While desirable, theyโre also quite expensive, retailing right now for ยฃ230 (~AU$450). If you donโt have that kind of cash to splash, weโve recently been trialling Oliver Cabellโs Low 1 white kicks, which are basically the same shoe for half the price and a great Common Projects alternative. Theyโre so good weโve included them in our list of the best white sneakers for men.
Hand-stitched and lasted in Albacete, Spain, Oliver Cabellโs version is made from full-grain calfskin leather from Veneto, Italy, matched with Spanish cowhide leather for the interior lining.

Iโve been wearing these for three weeks now and would suggest ordering a half size smaller than your usual shoe size, as they run a little larger than normal and can be stretched out after a good session of wearing in.
Theyโre in such high demand, however, that stock is always running out, so be sure to snap up a pair or register your email for re-stocking updates.
