Nike: Back to School Basics


As much as some may hate to admit it, fashion is a huge part of university culture. You want to look good 24/7, but let's be honest that's not always attainable, especially not during exam season. With these simple suggestions you'll have all the essentials you need, to look wavy even on your worst days. All links are provided and a discount code can be found at the end of the list!

1. Slides

Slides come in handy throughout your entire university experience. Especially when you've finished your lectures and want to swap your sneakers for something more comfortable to wear. For those who have the unfortunate pleasure of having a shared bathroom with other students, make sure you have at least two pairs!

2. Tracksuit

Perfect for those days where you don't want to throw on jeans or feel like making much effort. Throw on a tracksuit and a pair of sneakers or your slides, and you're good to go!

3. Air Force 1s

Regardless of the colour Air Force 1s are a necessity. They're comfortable and look great with any outfit (even bootcuts) they're the one pair of sneakers everyone should own, it doesn't matter if you're a sneakerhead or not.

4. Winter Jacket

Everyone should embrace their inner Arsene Wenger. Winter gets cold here in the UK and lasts longer than it should. If you want a good winter jacket before everyone else catches on, the best time to start looking is now!

5. Backpack

We know some of us only carry our laptops with us, only to get distracted during a lecture and look at Twitter or YouTube halfway through it. This applies mostly to students who live off campus but all students nonetheless, having a bag with you makes life easier. You can fit your laptop, notepad, water, lunch and whatever other essentials you need in it with ease.

6. Socks

What is an outfit without a pair of white Nike socks? Trash. Not literally, but they do make a great accessory, especially when paired with an Air Max 95, Air VaporMax Plus or Air Max 98. We're sure you can think of more sneakers they work well with.

7. Joggers

If you don't want to go all out with a tracksuit from head to toe, just pick up a pair of joggers. Comfort is at an all time high, and if you rock them properly with a wavy pair of sneakers, your style will be uncontested.

8. Hoodie

When Autumn, Winter and Spring come into full swing what better way to keep yourself warm than with a hoodie? If any of your lecture halls, seminar rooms or bedrooms are cold, throw on a hoodie. It's also a great addition to any outfit that doesn't require a coat or jacket.
