In this world, it’s usually the simplest or most “norm-core” styles that get the most attention (just look at the eternal popularity of Chuck Taylor hi-tops or Nike Blazers), and they’re usually relatively affordable. The latest entry in this It-sneaker canon? Adidas Samba sneaker.
From Paris to New York fashion people have embraced the classic soccer sneaker, pairing it with everything from maxi skirts to tailored trousers and jeans.
