đź‘–SKINNY LOVE

The footwear scene is shifting, and it's clear that skinny shoes are the latest trend to take over. After years of chunky sneakers and platform-heavy styles dominating the streets, a sleek minimalist look is making a comeback. From Taekwondo inspired slip-ons to sporty ballet flats, the focus is now on flat, designs that promise both comfort and style.

One of the biggest winners in this movement? The Mary Jane. Once seen as a retro staple, it's now gracing the catwalks and making its way into everyday wardrobes. In fact, menswear fashion week recently showcased Mary Janes on the runway, proving that even traditionally masculine styles are embracing a softer, more refined look.

Brand heavyweights like Puma have also joined the movement with their Speedcat model,

while Vans offers up their Super Lowpro sneaker, a minimalist design perfect for both casual

and elevated outfits. These sneakers, paired with everything from tailored suits to streetwear,

prove that skinny shoes are versatile and, more importantly, the IT style right now.
