White on White Is the New Stripes

06/22/2006

Lawrence of Arabia knew it. So do those Eagles fans on Oregon Avenue. When it comes to weddings, suit-and-tie combos, and most of all sneakers, white-on-white speaks of a classiness, cleanliness, and virginal newness that no other combination of color can hope to evoke.

As any Foot Locker employee and they'll tell you that Philly is a bastion of the white-on-white sneaker craze, particularly Reeboks (also a favorite in Hollywood), especially when paired with the jersey of a local sports team and longish denim shorts. Are white sneaks are how the underclass dresses up or how the overclass dresses down? They're so hot we can't even tell any more.
