Discussion White leather sneakers with different silhouette than typical white sneaker (not a flat sole like Common Projects, Stan Smiths)

Hey guys, the Stan smith/common projects type of shoe is just so dull to me, I think they’re clean but for me they’re so lifeless shape wise. I’m not a fan of flat shoes except Nike Killshots

Yet I need a shoe that’s more formal than my Air Force 1s. So no recommending Killshot etc. I need to go up a level in formality.

But everything looks the same. I like the Alexander Mcqueens oversized sneaker. They have a unique silhouette, not super flat like vans.

Looking for unique shapes like this that’s cheaper than Alexander Mcqueens, and not a blatant rip off of them

I love Stan Smith and Common Projects, but I also think they have become dull.I recommend the Jordan Centre Court if you want a slight difference. I really love the Nike-Sacai collaborations and ended up getting all three linked below in white, as well as other pairs in different colors because they are not boring.
