Our Top 6 #hypebaekicks Instagram Photos This Week
Peep these rare dad sneakers from Kappa and Umbro.
This week, we got an official look at Louis Vuitton‘s Archlight winter boot kicking off our favorite sneaker photos of the week. The popular Fashion Month silhouette has been bolstered with a curvy sole that extends into a leather bootie. Joining this pair we get an on-foot look at Brain Dead x Converse‘s animal print Chuck 70. New Balance reclaims its throne as one of the leaders of the dad sneaker movement with the X608WT. The ever-elusive Umbro Bumpy sneakers popped up on our feed along with Kappa‘s own Champ shoes.

Editor’s Note: The Chuck 70 served as the canvas for Brain Dead‘s latest collaboration. We see a mix of camouflage, cheetah print and zebra stripes on the high-top silhouette making them an ideal fall option.

Editor’s Note: Dad sneakers have made an undeniable mark on the sneaker landscape this year. Each of the major footwear giants have created their own silhouettes to compete in the market of normcore shoes. These feathery purple pants paired with New Balance’s X608WT is the perfect feminine addition to a chic, laid-back look.
