Offspring
Apart from the clothes you wear, one other important thing that tells a lot about an individual is the type of shoes they wear. Indeed, some people claim that footwear is the first thing that is noticed when one meets an individual. Just like clothing, choosing a shoe can be a time-consuming process, especially because one has to be sure that the shoe meets the specific purpose it is being bought for. The categories of shoes include fashion shoes, athletic shoes, dres' shoes, walking shoes, running shoes, hiking shoes, winter shoes and so on. When you think of comfort shoes, however, you think of sneakers because of the versatility and easy-to-wear designs they come in. Sneakers also designed to provide support for the heels and legs, which is why they are preferred for exercises and as activewear. Sneakers are designed to be breathable, so that the feet are not soaked in sweat, reducing the possibilities of infections and odour. This makes it possible to wear sneakers for extended periods, without fear of leg injuries of any sort as can be found in heels, dress shoes and boots, especially during the breaking-in period. Sneakers became the mainstream fashion in the late 1990s when sports brands invested heavily in designing appealing designs and getting popular athletes to wear their products. It then became known as sports shoes, but more recently, sneakers are worn in combination with any other clothing by celebrities and adherents of popular culture. It is no longer a novelty to find an individual wearing a sneaker on a suit and jacket, mostly as a message of being part of mainstream fashion and as a social status. From pairing dresses with sneakers, to the variety of styles and colours available, the world of sneakers has evolved that some women even wear them to their wedding! The truth is that no matter how expensive your outfit is, the choice of your shoes can make or mar the image you want to project. Today, the definition of cool is having a pair of statement-making sneaker on to complement your outfit. Offspring claims to offer different styles and designs from several brands that will add the spring to its customers’ steps.
