How to bring white sneakers to the office without losing style

January 09, 2018



With the pull of 'business casual', nothing like succumbing to the use of white shoes during any workday. Here, four examples that demonstrate how to show them with mastery.

The shoes are versatile footwear. As the 'business casual' gains adherents, the use of sneakers is triggered in any office. And it seems that the models in white color become great allies when it comes to finishing any style. So much so that many choose to combine them with suit. A democratization that makes them an object of desire and essential in the male wardrobe.

There are many models in the market: from the ones made in canvas, to the leather ones, through fabrics and technical materials. The white shoe lives good times. Especially since well-known brands such as Adidas, Nike or Puma decided to launch limited collections with collaboration with celebrities such as the singers Rihanna and Kanye West or with designers such as Stella McCartney and Riccardo Tisci.

If the aesthetic 'athleisure' has shown us that it is possible to dress on a day-to-day basis with clothes intended for sports, the white shoe has become another of the great milestones of aesthetics in daily life. Sneakers are not just for the gym anymore. Therefore, here are four very autumnal ways to take them everywhere. Included to your job.

1. The perfect mix

Wool jacket, sweater and pants 'cropped'. A basic trinomial suitable to combine with white sneakers. Opt for neutral colors such as navy blue or black. And if the blazer is double-breasted, better than better. With this look the new 'preppy' aesthetic is written. A current that moves unstoppable towards the office in any day of autumn-winter

1. Chinese trousers with handles (€ 39.95); 2. Model Nara of Etnia Barcelona (c.p.v.); 3. Zara swan neck sweater (29.95 euros); 4. Shoe model H340 Hogan (280 euros); 5. American double-breasted gray Scalpers (269 euros).

2. Dark blue almost black

Let's turn the 'biker' jacket into the centerpiece of this style, topped with white sneakers: the only note of color to a combination in neutral tones. Do not miss either a knit sweater in cahsmere and a pair of jeans. The perfect mix for a set suitable for those who come to their job on a motorcycle ... or not. If the monochromatic option does not convince you, try replacing the sweater with a white shirt and a cardigan. Another impeccable way to succeed in your day to day.

3. Step to the camel color

It is proven: the camel color is a shade that can enhance and make expensive any style. The white sneakers will give the necessary casual point to a set where fabrics such as cloth or wool predominate. The complements? In the coat line or raincoat. Opt for clear tones that serve as a contrast to a set that is as sophisticated as it is elegant.

4. With bomber and crazy

If you're looking to bring business casual to its ultimate consequences, nothing like betting on a sporty look style. The bomber jacket will become your best ally. If possible, yes, in dark colors such as black or navy blue. The counterpoint comes with sand colored chinos and white sneakers. Unleash the complements and let comfort become part of your work routine.
