Now that “dad” sneakers have achieved a full-blown cult following, it seems like fashion can’t get enough of the streetwear trend. Case in point: the clunky shoe’s more polished and arguably more comfortable cousin, the sock sneaker.
If you, like many an It girl, are a fan of the sock boot, then you’re going to love athleisure's answer to the snug shoe. More sock than sneaker, these slip-ons exude a cool style that is both chic and effortless. Wear them with a pair of jeans to finish off your outfit, or style them with a dress to make a bold statement in contrasting aesthetics.
From sleek all-black takes of the trend to more colorful or embellished versions, let this shoe stand out as much or as little as you want. Swap out your classic high-tops for an updated version that’ll hug your foot like glove; you won’t be sorry that you did. Check out our favorites below!
