Sneaker watch: These were the kicks dominating Paris Fashion Week
Comfort was the key trend for show goers this week and boy did they impress
Men’s fashion month wrapped up this week as Paris Fashion Week Men’s closed for Spring/Summer 2020. While much of the fashion industry look to the runway for new trends and seasonal styles, nowadays, street style provides a presentation of its own as celebrities, editors, buyers and influencer lurk outside upcoming shows.
As summer makes its way across the northern hemisphere, style lent a more relaxed approach and with it, the majority of show goers were seen donning loud sneakers. Opting for cool comfort, the ugly sneaker reared its head once again across the likes of Nike, Valentino, Prada and Acne as guests made their way to hotly-anticipated events such as Louis Vuitton, Jacquemus and Thom Browne.
Once again, chunky soles dominated kicks while unique textures such as feathers, spikes and suede added extra flair. Across limited collaborations and new season styles, check out our favourite sneakers below.
