Here’s a list of the trendiest sneaker designs to take on 2020 with, from the Air Jordan 1 High OG Dior to the Marc Jacobs The Jogger.
Chunky sneakers may be one of the most divisive trends of the past decade, but the love/hate relationship with shoes featuring thick soles and alien-like skins will likely live on at least for another year.
The Spring/Summer 2020 season saw many top designer brands coming up with their own interpretations of the footwear trend, from new colourways of the trendsetting Balenciaga Triple S and Louis Vuitton Archlights to original designs like the Fendi FFluid.
