White with a soft pink touch: the Autry Medalist Low “White / Pink” (stylecode AULWLL16) is a women’s sneaker that proves simplicity and femininity go perfectly hand in hand. Here, the Italian brand gives its best-known model a fresh, light look that works all year round.
Autry is one of those brands that has quietly popped up everywhere over the past few years. With its retro tennis aesthetic and distinctive flag patch on the tongue, the Medalist is undoubtedly the brand’s star player. This version keeps things understated: an almost entirely white base with pink details. No bright colors, no fuss — just a clean sneaker with a little more character than your average white shoe.
Why this model works so well
If I’m being honest, I completely understand its popularity. A white sneaker with a subtle pop of color may be the most versatile thing you can have in your shoe collection. With a dress, jeans or tailored trousers, it just works. The pink on this version is soft enough not to overwhelm, yet noticeable enough to set it apart from the thousand other white sneakers around you. Would I wear it myself? Absolutely — precisely because it requires so little effort.
Autry sits in a higher price segment than the familiar sports brands; [sz_price_from stylecode=”AULWLL16″] is where the current selection starts.
Fit and quality feel
The Medalist Low has a sturdier, more classic construction than many modern sneakers. You notice it in the comfort: the shoe feels solid and well made, and becomes comfortable to wear after a short break-in period. The fit is true to size to slightly roomy, so most people can simply stick with their usual size. For everyday wear, from work to the weekend, it’s a dependable choice. Just be sure to take a little care of the white upper; light-colored shoes inevitably need a clean every now and then.
For women who choose timeless style
This colorway seems particularly suited to women who have no interest in trends that will be over by next year. White and pink were wearable ten years ago and will still be wearable ten years from now. That also makes the higher price easier to justify: you’re buying something you can enjoy for a long time.
