Cordura sneakers
I’m thinking of getting of getting some sneakers made with durable water resistant materials so I thought of Cordura. I found a few options that I like and wanted some suggestions on them or other materials or shoes to consider. My current favourites are the Nike Air Force 1. I want to use them as summer casual wear in wet weather and such .
Any suggestions?

NBs for me
They are more trendy atm
They’re also much less ugly than the other two you posted
Hokka makes some nice cordura models
But so far def the NBs from what youve shown
Those NBs are SICK
Are they ugly?
Any recommendations of other sneakers with water resistant materials would also be appreciated
salomons if you want water resistant, but also water resistant & warm weather is usually a tough combo and you're better off looking for something that's drys quickly instead of something that's resistant
It is definitely tricky, especially in hot & humid weather
I don't find the design of the first pair terribly ugly, but the sole just isn't working for me. People seem to like chunky ones, but those actually look like they're intruding on the upper. If the extra rim (not sure term?) was black instead of white I think they would look vastly better - at least to my taste.
That’s fair, the Vans are my least favourite of the three
I wouldn’t say either are bad. The AF1’s are def easy to wear and the vans would benefit from simpler laces imo.
AF1 are fire I prefer them over the new balance tbh as for suggestion idk many brands that make water proof sneakers
Between the AF1 and NB are a tough choice
Get the NBs
Get AF1
AF1✅or NB👟?
NBs
It’s a tough decision
Not really
NBs look infinitely better
The black sole and grey upper on the af1 is just a really bad look

They do look good, but I need something for summer
It’d help to see how you normally dress. The NB’s would work well in more prep / ivy styled outfits but the af1’s would be a good choice for techwear.
I posted some fit pics ages ago
