Camper Derbies

Thoughts on these from Camper? They're currently 50% off so only 92€, harmless at worst right? The pink rubber part is silly but it's removable so I could also wear it more casual. I don't have any shoes in this style yet as of rn and I'm curious 🙂

Forget that they are on sale. Would you still pay 92€ for them?

oh yeah I mean any stitched leather shoe is worth more than that in my mind I'm just wondering if there's anything on these that stands out in a negative or positive way to all the experts we have here hehe (without the pink on) And also what y'alls past experiences with camper have been can't really afford something like paraboots rn and came upon these 🙂

someone was mentioning recently that prices on secondhand paraboots seem to be low lately. it might be worth keeping an eye out I'm not trying to dissuade you from buying these necessarily...I have no knowledge of Camper one way or the other.

ty honestly I think it's psychological, I really like these but then I see they're sitting on their website in all sizes while their other colorways and the loafer version are sold out so I'm like "there has to be something uncool about these right?" they probably... just have more stock because dark brown is the most versatile 😂 I'll get em

how's sizing in your experience? Comparing their sizing charts so sneakers sizing charts they're quite different I'm a 42 in nikes and adidas

No clue I’ve never owned nike or adidas, and the specific model of shoe I got was supposed to fit large

like for example here's the chart on nike's website and camper's website

I've inspected these shoes in store and they have pretty poor sole rigidity so I imagine they could get a bit uncomfortable after a while. If a shoe has a raised heel like this you want the midfoot portion to be rigid so your foot is supported across its whole length rather than just the bits that touch the ground. Some Camper shoes are great for this like the Traktori boots but others not so much.

what was the review if it’s quality you’re looking for I don’t think camper is it but you can always look at klemens or g h bass that both sell tylorean shoes

just looking on trustpilot it seems hundreds and hundreds of people in the last 2 years had the same issue of the rubber outsole breaking/crumbling after some time. Also, thinking about it if I get brown shoes I'd want leathery-looking leather, super smooth "corrected" leather is fine for black shoes but here I don't think it's the look I want to go for if that makes any sense

Fair yeah it looks better in black from them and yeah my rubber outsole has cracked
