Terrifyingly, the No. 1 growth category in men’s footwear is formal sandals, words I don’t like seeing next to each other
But there’s something interesting underpinning this movement, as well. When Keds were first released, they were a status symbol, said Semmelhack. “Rubber was expensive. Just having two pairs of shoes was
Nike Air Max TN Femme expensive.”Over time, interest
Nike Air Max 2017 Femme waned not just in the shoes themselves
Nike Air Max 90 Womens but in the entire aspirational vision of wealthy, Northeastern whiteness they conjure. Great masses of people — even rich white people — don’t want to look like JFK on a yacht anymore. They’d much rather look like Travis Scott on the red carpet. For maybe the first time, the face of success in America isn’t preppy and white, at least in the realm of
Nike Air Vapormax Femme footwear. But it’s a
Nike Air Max 90 Donne good step.As for me, I did
Nike Air Pegasus 89 Damen what all my friends told me was the obvious thing to do and bought the women’s version of my dearly departed Champions, which have not as of yet been discontinued. They were probably exactly the same, I reasoned. Right?
As I found out when I got my pair in the mail (women’s size 13), this sadly isn’t the case. The women’s version has a thinner sole than the men’s. It hurts
Nike Internationalist Femme to walk too much, and if you
Adidas Falcon Femme try to ride a bike in them, the shoe painfully
Nike Air Max 95 Mujer mushes down and bends around the pedal. They are wider around the ankle, showing more skin than the men’s. This, of course, has broad philosophical implications — why must womenswear be more revealing, even in a casual sneaker? — but it’s also massively practically inconvenient. They’re pretty much only good for wearing with shorts.So I got
Nike Air Skylon 2 Femme one last pair of
Adidas Superstar Damskie replacements: the Captain’s CVO from
Adidas ZX Flux Femme Sperry (also the brand worn by secular saint Mister Rogers, according to a spokesperson from the Fred Rogers Center). They look fine, if slightly chunky. They gave me a huge blister the first time I wore them. I’ve started wearing them with socks.Goku, Virgil Abloh, and Will Smith are all part of this weekend's crop of the best sneaker releases.
