Ugly Shoes Are Warm, And Mountaineering Shoes Suddenly Occupy The Trend Circle!

For two years, the entire shoe circle was immersed in "Daddy Shoes" In my dream, even I got 3 pairs of them. I must be possessed

Seriously, Dad Shoe is also called Chunky Sneaker, Ugly Sneaker， All kinds of similar nouns are confusing us, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, if you see a big big wave of shoes, you can call them Daddy Shoes.

Last autumn and winter, Supreme and Nike launched the Air Humara, and I subconsciously responded, oh? Did Supreme follow suit and launch the shoes of daddy?

After a closer look, I found that the Air Humara was originally a pair of "Hikking Shoes".

From the perspective of thick shape, it seems that outdoor shoes are still called Chunky Sneaker, right?

Review this year's Fashion Week Street photography , suddenly found that the situation was not quite right.

A large number of "outdoor ugly shoes" have appeared, including traditional outdoor brands ROA Hoka One One、La Sportiva、Altra、Salomon We are also familiar with sports brand hiking shoes, such as Nike lupinek flyknit, adidas AF 1.3 PK.

Salomon's appearance rate is outrageous

Why do outdoor shoes emerge as a new force in the tide of retro sneakers? It is essentially related to the popularity of daddy shoes.

In fact, we have never strictly defined the Dad Shoe. It doesn't matter which series it belongs to or which year it was produced.

As long as it looks thick, big and multi material, it is collectively called "Dad Shoe", so Chunky Sneaker and Ugly Sneaker come into being These extension words.

Balenciaga Track

The outdoor shoes are basically in line with the "appearance certification" of Dad Shoe, and the combination of thick, large and multi material is available.

The subtle difference may be that outdoor shoes pay more attention to waterproof and breathability, and traditional outdoor shoes generally use tire soles or serrated soles.

You are right. The new ugly track shoes of Balenciaga this year are actually outdoor shoes~

Other brands are starting to play. How can adidas and Nike, the two giants of fashion shoe circle, miss this trend?
