Designer Sneakers

While the term ‘sneakers’ implies a shoe that any and all can buy and wear, many sneaker brands have turned into designer companies, and many pre-established designers have decided to try and corner the sneaker market as well. Just look for the brand name, and if you know it, it’s a designer sneaker! 

Platform Sneakers

Platform sneakers are a relatively recent trend in the sneaker world, but they’re a very comfortable and stylish fit, and a lot of people (predominantly women) have taken to their casual styling. However, they are not necessarily a good fit for gym shoe wear, but good for people who experience discomfort when walking.

Chunky Sneakers

Another recent trend in the shoe world, Chunky Sneakers are exactly as the name says: chunky! They look big on the foot, and feature a lot of mod cons in their design. Big in the sole and small in the lace, these types of sneakers are good for giving height and lift to a person’s outfit, and they’re a huge trend on social media right now. You’ll see kids wearing them most often! 

Slip-on Sneakers

The Slip-on sneaker has its own place in America’s cultural heart. It is a type of sneaker that comes without shoelaces, meaning they’re great for kids and anyone who troubles to bend down and tie a bow. Easy to slip on, as the name suggests, and with plenty of innovative designs that ensure they remain a popular shoe choice, these sneakers are totally casual and great for all situations.
