Athletic sneakers like Curry’s are known for their comfort and ease of use, thanks to exaggerated soles and comfortable mesh and knit uppers. Styles in similar materials have also emerged from a range of sports brands in recent years, including Nike, Fila and Reebok. However, fashion and performance-oriented brands have also benefited from the trend. Sorel’s latest men’s trainers have included tonal mesh uppers and molded rubber outsoles for lightweight wear – also seen in his Kinetic Breakthru Day Lace style’s viral collaboration with Alfred. This summer, Steve Madden also launched men’s lace-up styles in a variety of upper colors and materials, with chunky, ridged rubber soles for added balance and comfort.
