Before figuring out how and with what to wear slip-on sneakers, it is worth looking a little back into the history of their origin. This shoe was designed to be a comfortable and inexpensive piece of sports bows. The lack of lacing allowed men to easily "slip" into their boots, which is a huge plus for all men.

With classic suits, of course, such shoes are not worn. Slip-ons are preferably combined with trousers or shorts. For the top, V-neck tees and neo-classic shirts will work. Solid slip-on models are ideal for men who prefer minimalism and simplicity. It is quite easy to choose the appropriate image for such a pair.

Slip-ons with a print look catchy, bright, attracting the eyes of others, but you should be very careful when making bows with this shoe option. If slip-ons have patterns or several colors in execution, it is best to refuse colorful T-shirts and shorts. Ideally, slip-ons are combined with summer light trousers or shorts.

The top of the bow should be presented as a T-shirt or street style shirt. If a representative of the stronger sex prefers business looks, he should look for slip-ons made of genuine leather. Such models seem more solid, they are easily combined with business suits without a tie.

Another important question men often ask is about socks. This item of clothing relates to personal foot hygiene. But the socks peeking out from under the shoes look ridiculous. With slip-ons, everything looks much more complicated. On the one hand, these are sports shoes. Basically, it has a lot in common with sneakers and sneakers, which are worn exclusively with socks.

Others say the outdoor sneakers use breathable materials that do not harm the feet. In fact, socks must be worn anyway.

A distinctive feature of slip-ons lies not only in the comfort of wearing, but also in the ease of maintenance. The stitched models can be easily washed in the washing machine, they easily tolerate the effects of bleaches and powders, so they can be used as cleaning agents. It will be much more difficult for those who have purchased a Chinese glued fake. In this case, it is necessary to wash the slip-ons only by hand.

White slip-on sneakers have to be washed much more often, since this is a very easily soiled color and gets dirty after each exit. Even a white sole acquires a yellowish tint after a while, and nothing can be done about it.In order to push back the appearance of yellowness as far as possible, it is necessary to wipe the lateral part of the sole after each walk.

Unfortunately, not every man knows how to select the appropriate bows for slip-ons. And this is not surprising. In fact, it is very difficult to find a beautiful look for a universal shoe.

For example, it is proposed to carefully read the business spring bow... Loose trousers in dark color are in perfect harmony with solid black slip-ons with a traditional white sole. The top of the look is complemented by an unbuttoned white shirt and a vest that matches the trousers.

Next, it is proposed to consider the street image, where burgundy loose trousers and a printed motley T-shirt are ideally combined with brown lightweight slippers with thick white soles. In this outfit, you can go with a girl for a walk or with friends to the club.

An interesting bow for going to the pool. Camouflage slip-on sneakers pair well with shorts and a dark top. At the same time, the white sole of the shoe does not stand out from the overall picture.
