Founded just last year, Article No. may not yet be on your radar, but they should be. This footwear-exclusive brand is making sneakers that are highly coveted, understated and cool. The present collection is diverse, so you may want to selectively avert your eyes. When you scope out these shoes, it would be completely conceivable to talk yourself into purchasing not just one pair, but a few.
Looking for a label-less, low-cut version made of premium napa leather with polyester flat laces? Style ID 0818-0416 is for you. But, if you’re in the mood for something that will get you unprovoked compliments on the street, go a little more fashion forward and try the tall-tongued Style ID: 0714-0216.
No matter which way you go with this small, albeit dynamic line of sneakers, you can’t quite go wrong. Pair at will with skinny jeans, loose fit, worn-in iterations (cuff ’em at the bottom), joggers or shorts. With this much action on the street, feel free to rock that denim with a plain white tee on top when wearing Article No. footwear.
