First bulky sneaker rec
I’m rocking white CPs or black Chelsea boots most days, can anyone recommend a minimalist/capsule wardrobe friendly chunkier sneaker? Mostly wear smart casual and I will not wear any sort of visible brand or logo. Thanks!

i think all of the default recommendations are gonna have some kinda branding
do u consider the asics stripes to be a visible logo?
otherwise you can jump a couple price brackets and look at actual designer sneakers
i am far from an expert on this but hender scheme and balenciaga might be worth a look
Unfortunately, yes. It’s well integrated into the design of the shoe, but my hang up with branding is philosophical.
I was considering these. Looks like a modern take on GATs
personally i think the gat design looks better on the typical slim sillhouette but i think im at the limit of my knowledge of unbranded sneakers haha
Thanks for the input!
bally, alexander mcqueen, hermes, lanvin are relatively subtle/nondescript with branding if youre looking at more designer stuff. koio, axel arigato, maybe even ted baker in the mid range
or you could go the fast fashion route like zara or h&m if youre looking for cheap stuff, though personally i dont think i'd ever get shoes from either of them
CPs gold lettering is branding
Check out corridor sneakers
Most shoes with minimal branding like that are gonna be [x's take on y's popular shoe] for the most part anyway. I feel like you could get away with rocking something like an Adidas ZX and still get what you mostly want
That or the New Balance without the N I guess haha
