White sneakers are THE must-have pair of sneakers in your wardrobe. As easy to wear with jeans as with a suit, their immaculate hue and minimalist design make them timeless.
Before that, a little history lesson.
Derived from the modest canvas tennis shoe of the early 18th century and designed to allow the wearer to move silently, the sneaker is a sports shoe with a rubber sole and canvas upper popularized thanks to the vulcanization process of Charles Goodyear (known for the Goodyear welted shoe).
Since the 1940s, sneakers have ruled the world and are considered the ultimate comfortable shoe. Unlike most other shoe styles, sneakers have no rules. Beyond their rubber soles and flexible uppers, sneakers come in all shapes, colors, and materials.
HOW TO WEAR WHITE SNEAKERS?
The biggest advantage of white sneakers is that they can be worn with everything!
A well-cut blazer and fine cotton chinos for nonchalant elegance, or with rolled-up jeans and a simple t-shirt or even with a suit.
HOW TO MAINTAIN IT?
For everyday use, start by waterproofing the exterior of your sneakers before wearing them for the first time after purchase. This product will protect the leather from rain and prevent stains from setting. Repeat this process regularly to ensure the product continues to work over time.
If your pair of sneakers has already been pacing around and is looking gray, then here are our tips:
1. Soak a sponge in cold soapy water and gently rub the leather
2. Clean the rubber sole by rubbing a little toothpaste on a toothbrush. This will also restore the whiteness of your shoes.
3. Machine wash the laces. If you can't get them back, soak them overnight in bleach.
4. Let your sneakers air dry, especially away from any heat source.
