Blueover. Sneakers

Lots of people in this world trying to create pairs of sneakers that will look good on anybody's feet but they tend to fail, cause nobody can do it better than the OGs back in the 70-90s era. Common Projects is one among many sneaker brands nowadays that is successfully created new sneakers with the idea of simple & sophisticated, yet comes with a very nice branding. Their collaboration with Tres Bien & Our Legacy's Welcome brand, the track shoe, is one of the good example of classic with a twist.

Another brand i think can do something like this is this Japanese brand, BLUEOVER. The brand has recently released "mikey" sneakers that perfectly created something classic, but with a twist. The shoe features a color suede upper and a sole with cushioning system to prevent the owner to feel fatigue when wearing for a long time. The design is very nice, the upper suede leather is almost without a seam on the side, making it very simple, sleek, and sophisticated, not to mention, these are made in Japan. Beautiful. The shoe is available in three colors, Orange, Wine Red, and Navy Blue. Might be a good alternative other than your classic New Balance.

Available via M-A-P-S.
