full grain leather sneaker recommendations
Anyone know of any sneaker models from “mainstream” brands (i.e. Nike, adidas, new balance, onitsuka tiger, ASICS) that are full grain leather? I recently bought a pair of new balance 550’s and found out via the rose anvil video that the leather is essentially suede with plastic on top to make them look like they’re a smooth leather. I’m trying to find something with a similar look but made out of full grain smooth leather. I’ve owned higher quality sneakers from Thursday and Greats but I just don’t like how they look and prefer the look of the more mainstream brands like Nike as opposed to Koio, common projects, crown Northampton etc.
