Style of the Native Apollo Moc

For the men, a t-shirt along with a jacket will complete the on-the-go look. Meanwhile for the ladies, a tank top, t-shirt, or sweatshirt will create the trendy appeal of an active lifestyle.
Notable Features
Perforations along the seamless microfiber upper provide a variation to the otherwise minimalistic style of the low-top Native Apollo Moc. There is a lace detail on the front, giving added style, while the shoe is kept in monochrome simplicity.
An elastic material is on the sides of the tongue, stretching the shoe when sliding the foot in and out. Native branding is on the tag near the heel.
History of the Native Apollo Moc
Back in 2009, Damian Van Zyll De Jong established Native Shoes in Vancouver, Canada. His vision was to create lightweight and futuristic shoes that had a minimalistic and functional design.
At present, Native produces shoes that usually feature a one-piece EVA unit. Unique advantages include anti-microbial properties and the ability to put in any scent on the sneaker.
One of the brand’s offerings fuses the past and future together, creating a modern classic: the Native Ap Moc. It’s a slip-on with the look of an athletic-inspired, minimalist sneaker, perfect for any kind of casual undertaking.
