Common Projects

Description

Common Projects is a high-end shoe brand founded in 2004 by Prathan Poopat, an American artistic director, and Flavio Girolami, a brand consultant based in Italy. Inspired by the simplicity and elegance of clean lines, the founders set out to create sneakers that would combine a minimalist aesthetic with artisanal quality. Common Projects shoes are made in Italy from luxury materials, with a special emphasis on traditional craftsmanship. Since its inception, the brand has been widely recognized for its iconic models such as the Original Achilles Low, which have become emblematic in the fashion world for their timeless design and sophisticated approach to casual wear. The gold-stamped serial number on the heel has become a distinctive signature of the house, symbolizing both exclusivity and attention to detail.
