UNSTOPPABLE! The retro wave in sneakers keeps growing
A strong trend in recent sneaker seasons is the emergence of new designs inspired by classic models, particularly from renowned brands.
The main characteristics include a synthesis of traditional models, with simplified uppers and basic soles of lower volume.
This trend takes old-school models and reimagines them with new colors and materials, preserving the charm and simplicity of those “vintage” sneakers.
The uppers retain their original sporty style, while the soles -whether wedges or cupsoles- remain thin and minimalist.
One iconic example of this trend is the reinvention of ADIDAS’ Samba and Gazelle models, which, while maintaining their original structure, have been reinterpreted in endless variations with a vast range of colors, combinations, and materials.
