It’s a huge style statement, including literally – chunky sneakers or “Dad sneakers,” which continue to be a fashion crowd favorite. Don’t let the bulk fool you; these chunky shoes complement different aesthetics. Embrace its sporty and outdoorsy sensibilities by leaning hard on athleisure for airports and road trips. Pair the OG travel-friendly New Balance 530 (New Balance, Level 2, Main Wing) with a classic crew neck shirt, sweat shorts, tank top, + track pants combo.
The world’s most stylish are throwing it back with retro cool kicks this summer. Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner have been spotted sporting the 70s football-inspired Adidas Samba OG (Adidas, Level 3, Main Wing) to elevate plain white tees, baggy jeans, and other off-duty styles.
Vintage picks such as the 90s grunge classic Converse Chuck Taylor All Star (Converse, Level 5, Main Wing) that now comes in chunkier and edgier platform designs or the 80s tennis sneakers Autry Medalist (Univers, Level 3, Main Wing) are making a comeback. Keep things interesting by wearing them with elegant pieces such as soft slip dresses and structured shifts.
Sunny days call for something bold and vivid. Go all-out cool with the British football legend PUMA Palermo OG (PUMA, Level 2, Main Wing) in electrifying colorways such as Pink Delight and Grape Mist-Peach Fizz, as seen on pop star Dua Lipa and K-pop girl group IVE.
Take the more polished route by picking fantastic whites like Nike Court Vision Low Next Nature (Rustan’s Level 4, Main Wing) for monochromatic linen coords or tonal dressing. These shoes are always eye-catching and add character and an effortlessly fresh vibe to laidback summer staples—lace-up statement-making colorful sneakers for alfresco brunches with friends, summer concerts and fests, or date nights.
