开箱Church’s Lancaster

意外淘到了一双非常让人神往的鞋子。Church’s这个品牌,在皮鞋爱好者的圈子里,非常两极分化。一部分人说这个鞋子是垃圾皮开边珠/亮皮/bookbinder/polished leather之王,经典男鞋里的败类,澡堂级品牌。另一部分人说,这是永远的梦,穿了30年,还爱得死去活来。 为什么会有这样的差别呢?主要就是皮革的选择,或者很多人归因于Prada的收购,让产品品质下降。而那些爱得死去活来的,都是高端、顶级掠食者,在我们还在玩泥巴的时候,就玩过大量顶级皮鞋的人。 那么今天这双为什么好呢,好就好在它没有使用垃圾皮,而Church’s一旦不使用开边珠,它的皮革确实都是顶级的。另一点则是好在它完全回到历史中去了。 Post Views: 83
