Take A Sneak Peek: Sneakers for Days

BY NIKA CRISOSTOMO

From a Monday morning class, to a Friday night out, to a Saturday brunch, a good pair of sneakers will always have your back.

Sneakers are long-lasting, comfortable, and can be worn with almost anything. So many of our most loved sneaker brands have been around for decades, and it just goes to show how enduring the sneaker look is.

Take a peek into some of our favorites:

Timeless Originals

The Nike Cortez, Stan Smith, and Tiger Corsair shoes were all first released in the 1970s for the main purpose of enhancing athletic performance. Today, they may no longer be used for playing sports, but they have become classics in the fashion scene — still very popular with people across generations not just for how they look, but also for the good quality and comfort they offer.

Canvas Love

Keds has been creating the Champion canvas upper sneaker since 1916, which means canvas shoes have been a go-to for almost a century now. Laid-back and simple, canvas shoes have become a constant in many people’s lives. Throughout the years, brands like Keds, Superga, and Vans have offered us a variety of canvas shoe styles and colors to pick from.

Feminine Pastel

If you’re going for a softer look, most well-known sneaker brands offer shoes in pastel colors. The feminine pastel colors perfectly balance out the masculine look of sneakers.

Monochromatic

If you’re looking for a bolder look, opt for a monochromatic pair of sneakers. These shoes are not only fun, they’re sure to catch eyes and make a statement, as well.

Prints and Details

Add a little charm to your outfit with a pair of sneakers that has artful details or flaunts a playful print. Sneakers like these would be perfect for days when you want to keep your outfit relatively simple, without going completely plain.

All White Everything

Now who doesn’t love a pair of white sneakers? They’re refined, effortless, and instantly complete an outfit — in other words, you can rarely go wrong with them. If you’d rather not wear white shoes because you’re afraid of getting them dirty, opt for a pair that’s made of leather (leather is much easier to clean than canvas).
