Men’s Track 80 Sneakers — Common Projects
Our Track 80 sneakers reimagine classic court footwear through a contemporary lens, blending streamlined minimalism with athletic heritage. Handcrafted in Italy from premium full-grain leather, each pair features a low-profile silhouette that transitions seamlessly from weekend errands to evening plans.
The Common Projects Track 80 sneakers showcase our signature gold-stamped serial number at the heel, identifying the style code, size, and color. We’ve refined every detail—from the tonal lace system to the smooth leather lining—to deliver a sneaker that feels as refined as it looks.
Track 80 construction & design details
Italian Leather Construction & Craftsmanship
We source our leather from carefully selected Italian tanneries known for producing supple, full-grain hides that age beautifully over time. The Common Projects Track 80 sneakers undergo a multi-step construction process in Italy, where artisans hand-cut, stitch, and assemble each component with meticulous attention to detail.
Every pair receives our signature gold foil serial number stamped at the heel counter, a mark of authenticity that also provides style, size, and color information at a glance. The Margom rubber sole—a hallmark of premium sneaker construction—is hand-stitched to the upper, creating a bond that delivers both flexibility and durability.
Sizing & Fit Guidance
The Track 80 follows our standard Common Projects sizing, which runs true to size for most customers. We offer these sneakers in full sizes only—if you typically wear a half size, we recommend ordering up to the next full size for optimal comfort.
The low-profile design hugs the midfoot while allowing natural toe splay in the rounded toe box. Our leather lining molds to your foot shape during the first few wears, creating a personalized fit that improves over time.
Care & Maintenance for Longevity
We recommend treating your Common Projects Track 80 sneakers with a leather protector spray before the first wear to guard against moisture and stains. Allow the spray to dry completely—at least 24 hours—before wearing.
For routine cleaning, wipe the leather upper with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid saturating the leather or submerging the sneakers in water, as excessive moisture can damage the construction and affect the Margom sole bond.

Common Questions About the Track 80 Sneakers
Our Track 80 sneakers run true to size and follow the same fit as other Common Projects styles. We offer full sizes only, so if you typically wear a half size (like 9.5), we recommend sizing up to the next full size (10) for the best fit.
The leather upper will conform to your foot shape during the first few wears, creating a more personalized fit over time. Most customers find the width accommodating for average to slightly wider feet.
The Track 80 features a more streamlined, contemporary silhouette with a sleeker toe box and refined proportions compared to the Track Classic’s vintage-inspired design. Both styles share Italian craftsmanship and premium leather uppers, but the Track 80 offers a slightly lower profile and modern aesthetic.
The sole construction also differs—the Track 80 uses an updated Margom cupsole with subtle texture, while the <a href=”/mens-track-classic/”>Track Classic</a> showcases a more pronounced vintage sole treatment. Both are versatile options depending on your style preference.
While the Track 80 sneakers feature durable Italian leather and a solid rubber sole, we recommend treating them with a leather protector spray before wearing in wet conditions. This adds a protective barrier against moisture and stains.
The Margom sole provides good traction on most surfaces, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water can affect the leather’s appearance and longevity. We suggest reserving these sneakers for dry or lightly damp conditions and allowing them to air-dry naturally if they do get wet.
For routine maintenance, wipe the leather upper with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or saturating the leather with water.
Every few months, apply a premium leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Work the conditioner in with a clean cloth using small circular motions, then buff away excess product. For the rubber sole, use a soft brush with mild soap and water to remove scuffs and debris.
Yes, each pair of Track 80 sneakers comes with an extra set of replacement laces in the same tonal color. If you need additional laces beyond what’s included, you can contact our customer service team for assistance sourcing the correct waxed cotton laces.
The flat lace design and specific width are chosen to complement the six-eyelet system and overall aesthetic of the sneaker, so we recommend using genuine Common Projects laces for the best fit and appearance.
The gold foil serial number stamped at the heel of every Common Projects sneaker serves as both a mark of authenticity and a product identifier. The number sequence indicates the style code, your shoe size, and the color code.
This subtle detail has become a signature element of our brand, offering a discreet way to verify genuine Common Projects footwear. The stamping is applied by hand during the final production stages in Italy.
With proper care and rotation with other footwear, our Track 80 sneakers can last several years of regular wear. The Italian leather upper develops a natural patina over time that many customers find enhances the shoe’s character and appeal.
The Margom sole is exceptionally durable and resistant to compression, maintaining its shape and cushioning far longer than standard sneaker soles. Regular cleaning, conditioning, and the use of shoe trees between wears will maximize the lifespan of your Track 80s.
