In a world full of amazing multicolor kicks, black and white sneakers are still relevant as heck! From the timeless classics to new releases, this color pairing (or lack thereof?) is one of the best out there. So today, we’re gonna take a look at why black and white kicks have our hearts. Moreover, we’ll check out some upcoming releases that feature this colorway. But if you want some more festive kicks, we totally understand. Therefore, we got a list of our favorite Grinch kicks right here! Now, let’s get back to the BW world, shall we?
There are many reasons that black and white sneakers are popular and pretty trendy lately. For starters, the B&W mix is just timeless and you can never go wrong with it. These two colors are the most basic, yet the most versatile, so you can style them up and down. Secondly, whether you wanna blend in or stand out, a pair of BW kicks can easily do the trick for you. And just to prove that point, let’s take a look at a couple of classic kicks that we will forever love.
In our defense, Converse was, and will continue to be a classic in the sneaker industry. And odds are, at some point, you certainly owned a pair of these babies. While there are many colorways to choose from, the black-and-white combo always has a special place in our hearts. So, if you want to refresh your wardrobe or try the kicks, you can get them from the official Converse site for $65!
In 2018, everyone and their extended family rocked the black and white Vans Old Skool, no joke. So, wherever you went, you’d peep a couple of people wearing the sneakers. And while that would make Avril Lavigne very proud, there’s more to the kicks than sk8er bois. You see, the skate scene certainly influenced its popularity, but the silhouette really is versatile. This helped the Old Skool stay relevant to this day! Just like Chucks, it’s genderless, easy to style, and affordable at $70!
If you don’t own a pair, someone you know probably does. And if you don’t know it, then you certainly live under a rock, because the Panda Dunk took the sneaker and streetwear scene by storm. Everyone loved to hate on them because they felt like a “fashion fad”. But the real reason is probably that they’re not as exclusive as people want them to be. You can read more about these babies here. One thing’s for sure though, the Panda Dunks certainly brought back the magic of black and white sneakers!
Now that we answered the most important question, we gotta tackle another equally important topic. We’re gonna list a few black and white kicks that you’ll really wanna add to your sneaker collection! Whether you like chunky, simple, or collaborative kicks, we got you. Now, one of the kicks we can’t wait to have is the Joe Freshgoods New Balance 990v4 collab! It will feature three colorways, two of them black and white. In addition to that, here are all the kicks you should look out for soon!
