A1923 / Adiciannoveventitre (Augusta)

[sagill1119]

I am not a big fan of Augusta trainers, and dont like boots with laces on either. Hopefully, Augusta would produce sth exciting apart from these this season.

Check the H Lorenzo site. Sick A1923 trainers: Black, grey, brownish and bone.

Atelier has the black with black soles available again as well.

those black on blacks are sick...they need black or very, very, very dark gray laces though....

from their looks they seem to be super uncomfortable, which is something that shouldn't happen with sneakers imo.

Completely disagree. I got the sneakers when they originally came out, and they are now one of my most comfortable, daily 'kick-around' pair of sneaks.
When they break-in they are super comfy.
They just need a bit of time. Not sure why 'from the look' you think uncomfortable......

I agree 100%. The leather is extremely stiff when new but now are super comfortable.

As for Augusta in general, i prefer early seasons, laced up boots and derbies. but im in love with these ones

and still thinking to get them, the only thing, i'm afraid that red paint will be gone after proper wearing them, and the look will be shitty. so i still confused about it

and as for sneakers - my opinion that classic black/white version with blue/gray laces is the best interpretation of it! the look is awesome and i think they should be super comfortable!

I own a pair of this.
1. Red paint will not fade.
2. Problem only if you scratch the boot you will have a white dot or scratch line (thats true) already made a scratch on mine. But it didn't change the overall look cause this white scratch becomes grey in a few days and made a look that it was made from the beginning by Augusta.
3. They look awesome if you gonna wear them everyday the will not become "shitty looking"

hope it helps

Thanx alot, MWNN, I just needed to hear advise from someone who already have it! so in a few days they will appear in my closet


and as for current season, cant wait till these
would be available in Moscow!

/\ these are nice

Like both the last two pairs with pictures posted.

What kind of leather is the latter pair made from? Or is it the treatment/distressing that makes it look that way? Either way gives off a "soft" feel to me that Augusta derbies generally don't (For me) visually which I find interesting.

^^
It looks like the Cullata he's been using this season, not sure.

My favorite from the current season is the canvas over leather.

[pseudonym]

^ Mine too actually. The coloring is perfect. Just not sure about the metal eyelets though.. And actually kinda prefer the freyed edges of the older Augusta canvas over leather.
