It’s commonplace for trends within fashion to come and go, with specific garment types often making a comeback years after their initial success. This has been particularly true with the “chunky skate shoe” style of sneakers, which were particularly popular in the early 2000s. While they spent the last 20 years or so absent from shelves, the style has now made a comeback and was perhaps spearheaded by the newfound success of the Nike SB Dunk Low. We’ve seen several brands try their hands at this silhouette since, with the latest to adopt the style being one of the greatest luxury labels in the world – Dior. Showcasing clear chunky aesthetics, the house’s latest sneaker silhouette titled the B9S has just been unveiled.
Teased as part of Kim Jones SS24 collection for the brand, the B9S offers up turn of the century looks galore, completed with vintage Dior branding and a chunky midsole that conceals plenty of cushioning. The pair has been shown off in multiple different colourways already, with fashion fans around the world paying immediate attention to the release.
