Origin
Do you know how sneakers came to be known as sneakers? Well, an American advertising agent Henry McKinney first used this term in 1917 to describe how the rubber soles made the shoe stealthy, i.e. how quiet the shoes were on the ground as compared to the noisy leather sole shoes! Sneaky, right?
Sneakers have been popular throughout the history due to the amazing comfort they provided to the feet. Originally made for running or athletic activities, sneakers now have trickled down into the daily wear section for both men and women. Now with the huge flare up trends like Athleisure and Sports Luxe, sneakers or trainers are the leading in the mainstream fashion industry. Popularised by basketball players, rappers, celebs and models like Michael Jordan with his own very popular brand called ‘Jordans’, Drake, Kehlani, Tinashe, Hadid Sisters, Kard-Jenners, and so many more - the sneaker trend has blown up to be one of the biggest in the market.
Types
Let’s delve into the details of sneakers. Sneakers, as categorized according to their features come in four types:
Running Shoes
-
As the name suggests, running shoes are designed differently than other sneakers so as to provide maximum efficiency and comfort to the wearer for running. They have high cushioning, flared up heels and maximum stability element. You can easily pair running shoes with your daily outfits if you want to add an edge to your look while still remaining comfortable. Pair your sports shoes with a graphic t shirt and ripped jeans for a cool and comfy look or pair them with a cute little summery dress to give an edge to an otherwise feminine look. We recommend these grey mesh lace-up sports shoes by NCS. These are airy, breathable, versatile and will look great with every outfit. Lace-Ups-
Lace up sneakers are shoes that are fastened with laces. A very common type of sneakers, these are the first things that pop up in our mind when we hear the work sneakers. These are not as athletic as running shoes are much more casual and light. They are perfect for an everyday look and work with almost anything. This summer experiment with your style and choose colorful lace ups instead of the monotonous blacks and greys and add flare to your outfits. We recommend these green canvas lace up sneakers by Couch Potato. Pair these incredibly cute sneakers with your dark denims and tops for a fun and flirty look. Plimsolls-
A plimsoll shoe, is a type of athletic sneakers with canvas uppers and light rubber soles. Widely worn by vacationers and tennis and croquet players back in the day, plimsolls are one of the most comfortable lightweight sneakers. With the rising popularity of plimsolls, they are being reinvented in styles like the espadrille plimsoll. Style them with dresses, denim and wide legged pants. We recommend these super trendy metallic silver plimsolls by Meriggiare.
Slip-ons-
Slip on sneakers are perhaps the most comfortable of all. With no laces, they save time and effort and look super cute and chic with almost any outfit. Nowadays slip ons are made from denim, leather, suede, pvc, satin, rubber, jute, mesh, velvet apart from canvas.
