These A.P.C. boots are basically black Timbs, but not. So, you could just always just buy a pair of black Timbs. Consider this post kinda like the recipes you watch on Mind of a Chef where they use a really exotic or expensive ingredient, but say that a more commonplace alternative can be used in its place. But then the chef is always like, "But if you can, splurge, because you really notice the difference." In this case, your two options are startlingly similar, but you want to buy the $525 option because commonplace alternatives are the literal antithesis to stunting.
