Vol. 18 "Canvas Sneakers of Youth" SPERRY TOP-SIDER "CVO Canvas Oxford"

Canvas sneakers are an indispensable item for coordinating outfits throughout the year. In the coming season, it feels wonderful to wear freshly washed, sun-dried sneakers with bare feet, and it’s also nice to use a brand-new pair to dress down a chic ensemble. They are a classic, but one we can’t do without. Sneakers are also items that can unleash a wealth of subtle styling tricks. This time, Editor Demon King’s favorite item is a renowned classic from that brand. The reasons for its enduring appeal are truly convincing.

In 1935, founder Paul Sperry developed the world's first deck shoe using a rubber sole. Since then, its excellent non-slip performance and timeless design have earned it widespread support, expanding its fanbase to the general public. The "CVO (Canvas Oxford)" boasts an orthodox style that remains unaffected by trends, holding an unshakeable position as a staple item. It is also featured as an iconic item of preppy style in "The Official Preppy Handbook," which was first published in 1981 and became a global bestseller.
