The 2010s Sneaker Trend is Back in Style

The fashion trends from the 2010s are making a sneaky return. Surprisingly, even the most debated styles are re-emerging, whether we’re ready for them or not. One trend that has caught my attention on my feed and among my stylish friends in New York City is the wedge sneakers. If you’re a fan of Isabel Marant, you might just be thrilled. The luxury fashion brand popularized this sneaker style back in 2011, and it continued to be a favorite for several years thereafter.

Social media is full of throwbacks from the 2010s, with fashion influencers showcasing this nostalgic style, which could be driving its resurgence in the fashion scene. Last year, quirky shoes took the spotlight, and wedge sneakers were right there in the mix, continuing the trend of unique, standout footwear. Celebrities like Rachel Sennott have been spotted casually rocking the latest version from Puma in the wedge sneaker trend, dubbed the Speedcat Wedge. It’s unmistakable that the fashion elite are embracing this style, with many pairs almost selling out everywhere. Recently, the Ottolinger F/W 24 collection showcased wedge sneakers paired with a sophisticated office ensemble, further emphasizing this trend’s presence on social media.
