Suits with sneakers is nothing new. It’s not a trend nor is it a uniform for hipsters. It’s more common than most men like to believe. It’s only a big deal if people make it a big deal. Now, if you’re one of the many men who are willing to be a little adventurous regarding your wardrobe, getting to know which type of sneakers goes with certain suits will make things easier.
From the weekend to the office
When there is an early meeting on a Sunday morning, you’re cutting things close by taking a longer than expected break in the weekend. The best way to stroll from total comfort to semi-formal are donning low-top sneakers like the Stan Smiths from Adidas. These go best with formally structured suits that make it seem you’ve decided to skip on the classic brogues. The low-tops in question are classics on their own. It’s simple white on white in design and colour; we all know white goes pretty much with everything. And to make things gel in swimmingly, try out a grandad-collar shirt to let people know you’re mature enough yet know the meaning of fun.
Get creative
Tie-free, dark suits with a fresh white shirt calls for something a tad on the edgier side. Leather and suede – two-toned – sneakers is a clever way to mesh things in. But make sure they are a darker pair, the only contrast you will see are between the two tones, while possessing a camouflage effect with your suit. It’s an ideal look for an event at the gallery, with a party waiting for you afterward.
Break from the laces
Loafers might be a distant cousin of these slip-on sneakers. No laces call for a more casual touch to the suit. A casual, slightly relaxed-fit suit is the perfect look for those after office hours shindigs. Don’t be so surprised if they feel incredibly comfortable, you are after all in a mood to chill.
Oxford effect
You’ll have to shell out a few extra bucks for these babies. Patent leather sneakers are as sexy as a Ferrari on your driveway. These sneakers you want to reserve for the most important events or occasions. Not only is it comfortable, it is a fine example of modern sophistication. It’s got the finesse of a formal dress shoe, and to make it stand out there are certain procedures. Make sure the suit is mat, without any lawyer-like patterns or pinstripes. You’ll be showered with complements but don’t feel the need to get too comfortable. Keep in mind, this is a classy outfit so keep your posture and sneakers in check.
