SUAVS The 247 Sneaker Collection
Gone are the days of suffering all day in stiff, uncomfortable sneakers. The best options for your feet nowadays are lightweight, breathable, and versatile, but stylish still — like the SUAVS The 247 sneaker. Available in several colors, they're the right choice for date nights, commuting to work, traveling, weekends, beach trips, and light hikes, thanks to their soft, premium-knit, naturally ventilated upper made from recycled materials, which is compressible for when you travel, and easy to slip on and off, too, whether when you reach the sand or are rushing through airport security. But they're far from slipper-like. Every colorway comes with SUAVS' all-terrain outsole, a flexible footbed meant to be durable enough for daily wear. Pick one of the white pairs for a polished look or a darker color scheme for incognito streetwear aesthetics. Best of all, no matter the colorway, the sock-like upper and collar keep you comfortable on your feet all day long, and when a day's work starts to show, you can easily wash The 247, thanks to its quick-drying properties.
