Off-White™'s Fall 2022 Footwear Offering Proves the Return of the Sneaker Heel is Imminent
The hybrid model took over the Fall ‘22 runway.
Amid larger-than-life slouch boots and chunky booties, Off-White™‘s Fall 2022 offering included a small peek into what the label has planed on the sneaker front.
The brand put their spin on the moon boot trend with a run of chunky appliquéd models with layered laces. The bulbous shape continued on to a newly revealed sneaker silhouette worn by Gigi Hadid, complete with the brand’s signature zip tie detail.
In an if-you-blink-you-may-miss-it moment, a sneaker-inspired sandal, styled with knee-high tube socks, took over the OW runway. The shoe’s forefoot design features a grey, blue and white eyestay decked out with printed laces. The lateral panel boasts a zigzag stitched arrow, completing the design.
Off-White™ isn’t the only brand to toy with the sneaker heel trend, Dior dropped the D-Zenith sneaker earlier this year complete with a knit collar. We would be remiss if we didn’t call out to the genesis of the trend, namely the bootleg Nike and Jordan branded iterations that took over the early aughts.
