Trending: Chunky Sneakers

I have totally been diggin’ the chunky dad sneaker. I think it adds such a cool girl vibe to any outfit. The sneaker trend has its roots in athleisure wear which is a style that makes athletic wear more of a street style rather than a workout wear. You can see this evident in today’s streetstyle as Vans, Converse, Sketchers, Nike, and Adidas are seen as great everyday wear. Even luxury brands are creating a high end version of this shoe; some examples being Balenciaga’s Triple S Trainers ($895), Gucci’s Rhyton sneaker ($820), and Louis Vuitton’s Archlight sneaker ($1,090).

Below is a shoot and an edit I made featuring some inexpensive chunky sneakers I bought from Target from the new retro Wild Fable collection.
