At $375 a pop, these might just be the most expensive pair of white kicks you’ll ever encounter. But sometimes, classic comes at a price, and though ultimately it’s up to you whether the asking price is really worth it, we’re going to go ahead and make a bold claim: if you want a style that will outlive even time itself, get the Sobos 405 Classics.
These low-top leather sneakers in white feature a round toe, tonal lace-up closure, plus a padded tongue and collar. You also get a logo stamped in golden-tone on the heel tab. Oh, and let’s not forget the white rubber margom sole. Those are all the details, basically. Kept to a hum, with no unnecessary decoration crowding the profile. It’s minimalism at its most potent: just the essentials, no perceptibly superfluous additions.
Now, you might ask us, Who would pay $375 for a pair of white sneakers? Well. Lots of folks. And this is Sobos 405 Classics we’re talking about, not just any run of the mill pair of kicks.
