Common Projects' Achilles gained popularity thanks to a combination of quality and a minimalist, monochrome aesthetic. These Contrast Sole variants eschew the traditional tonal outsole for a (slightly) more colorful alternative. The white colorway gets a natural rubber-colored base, while the black outsole is a semi-translucent greenish-grey. Otherwise, they're the same low-cut, lace-up silhouette as before, crafted in Italy with supple leather uppers, leather lining, and the brand's signature gold style number along the side.
