Common Projects

Founded in New York in 2004 by Prathan Poopat and Flavio Girolami, Common Projects established a new language for luxury sneakers—one rooted in restraint, precision and impeccable materials. The brand’s philosophy was simple but influential: take an everyday silhouette and refine it until every proportion, finish and detail feels deliberate. Clean lines, premium leather and a pared-back aesthetic define the collection, with the signature Achilles Low standing as an icon of understated sneaker design. The discreet gold-stamped serial numbers add a subtle mark of distinction, while minimalist construction allows the quality of the materials and craftsmanship to speak for themselves. Discover Common Projects at Monarch Avenue, where New York minimalism meets Italian craftsmanship in sneakers defined by quiet luxury and enduring style.
