Style Tips: Pro-Level Playbook



  1. Neutral is king: whites, creams, greys, sand—seasonal essentials that let colorways pop.
  2. Fabric nuance: washed cotton, French terry, lightweight knits—adds substance without volume.
  3. Intentional proportions: boxy or cropped top with taper bottom balances bulkier sneakers.
  4. Micro‑tone matching: subtle accessories (socks, caps) referencing shoe details—quiet cohesion.
  5. Luxe simplicity: hidden seams, premium weights, understated stitches—styles that whisper, never shout.
