#MondayMotivation: wearing white sneakers of our dreams

accreditation

White sneakers can be clunky, bulky, sporty, practical, pretty and now even for work. With so many white sneakers to choose from, we have decided to revisit this classic shoe in light of some recent happy news.

Fashionista.com reports that Nike has just asked 14 women to reimagine its Nike Air Force 1 and Air Jordan 1 in an effort to create a collection of 10 new takes on the classic. Only this time it's for women, by women.

And overall, white sneakers have been getting a lot of airtime over the last few years, especially with the comeback of retro Nike Cortez and '80s and '90s-inspired dad sneakers like the infamous 'love them or hate them' Balenciaga white sneaks (below).

Local influencers have also found the most creative of ways to incorporate this white sneaker into their everyday attire, be it for work or play.
