Marques’Almeida Just Took Platform Sneakers to a New Level – Literally

The chunkiest sneaker yet.

There’s no doubt you’ve seen the chunky sneaker trend that’s been taking over the fashion industry for the past year. Silhouettes like the Balenciaga Triple-S and Louis Vuitton Archlight have proven that the bigger, the better, and with the return of the ’90s classics from Buffalo London, it’s clear that the trend isn’t slowing down any time soon.

Now, British designer Marques’Almeida has just dropped a pair of shoes that literally just brought the chunky sneaker trend to a new level. Debuted at the designer’s Fall/Winter 2018 show, the sneaker is crafted from contrasting leather panels, and finished off with a tall platform sole. Perfect for adding an edgy and bold touch to any look, the trainer is the ultimate statement piece to add to your rotation.

Retailing at $661 USD, you can get a pair of your own over at MATCHESFASHION. For more chunky footwear, peep Maison Margiela‘s latest drop here.
