When talking about sneakers, there are no fixed rules. Everybody reps his own style and new options are always welcomed as fads change quickly. But, even if tastes are strictly personal, every weekly rotation should includes at least a pair of black sneakers. And when it comes to dark tones, nobody compares to Nike and adidas Originals. Many rock dark footwear because it’s so easy to match with almost any piece of clothing out there, and it really looks like this if you take a pair of black Air Force 1. But actually, the true queen of black sneakers still remain Vans, and it’s all thanks to the iconic Old Skool style. This sleek pair taps a black upper, which flaunts white leather details and plain lines, further highlighted by white stitchings. More generally, every brand features at least one all-black iteration for every top-selling model on its catalogue; this happens for the Jordan 1 and for the Air Max - yep, all styles included. Because nothing beats the restraint of total-black.
