Pick Of The Week: Supremebeing White Canvas Stitch Plimsoll

If you've been mulling making forays into white garment territory then you can start here; the Supremebeing canvas stitch plimsoll. Now that it's spring it's time to brighten up your footwear and these sneakers are the way to go. Minimal in design, sleek and low-cut, this is the best choice when it comes to sneakers for spring and summer. Conversely, in autumn and spring sneaker choices should be on the chunky, thick-soled side because they work with heavier fabrics.

The great thing about sneakers in summer is that they come in an array of colours, textures and designs, and this makes it possible to experiment with various clothing styles, dress codes and combinations. The Supremebeing signature plimsoll with a foreshortened toe section and low profile top line also features flat laces and signature Supremebeing bamboo sole unit.

These sneakers are this week's pick of the week because they're an essential, however, more importantly, they are on sale, marked down from R650 to R195. I have my own pair that I purchased sometime in September and recently broke out for the first time this past weekend. I also obtained them on sale for R260.

I attended a beauty pageant at the weekend hosted by professional football club Mamelodi Sundowns. The occasion was the Miss Mamelodi Sundowns 2014 Durban Regional Finals. My wife implored me not to wear a suit and when I finally decided on what to wear the end result was this slim fitting navy suit, a grey henley, a light blue gingham pocket square, and the Supremebeing stitch plimsoll's. I was very comfortable, I didn't feel overdressed and this was a good way of dressing down without being over the top.
