Sully Wong Sneaker

Sully Wong, the Toronto-based footwear brand comprised of partners George Sully and Henry Wong, makes sleek sneakers for skater kids, urban dwellers and anyone who’s into the athletic trend. Last year, a collaboration with the designer and interior architect Karim Rashid resulted in some funky patterned kicks. Now, the brand has paired with the organization Onexone to create a limited-edition “Hope” sneaker: a simple unisex shoe designed in Onexone’s signature red-and-white, with fifty per cent of proceeds going toward funding a paediatric wing for Haiti’s Hospital Mirebalis. Three hundred and fifty pairs were produced—if they sell out, that means over $25,000 for the Haitian hospital. Plus, an understated white sneaker paired with blue denim is a staple look for fall. $150
