Street Detail: Hot Flashes

sd_raif.jpg
A summer wardrobe just isn’t complete without crispy clean sneakers. In case you’ve been outside the bubble, white-on-white Air Force 1’s aren’t the season’s standard look—kicks are now open to all bright colors, as long as they’re unscuffed. But matching the rest of your outfit accordingly takes a little work, especially when you’ve got on some sneakers of the gaudy, eye-catching variety.

This week’s Street Detail subject keeps it mellow yellow with the premium sneaker brand Raf Simons, then adds some subtle detail with his yellow camo Nixon watch. See the full style breakdown after the jump.

  2. Gotta’ respect this man’s ability to make yellow shoes seem not ridiculous. I still have yet to find a way to tone down a pair of red canvas deck shoes I’ve got under my bed. Ahh, life is so hard.
