Even if Ugly Sandals may (still) tell you little, the term could still remind you of another trend in recent years: the so -called Ugly sneakers.This meant sneakers that are equipped with a relatively large sole and all in all look quite chunky.Like "star.de "explained, this trend was triggered by the Balenciaga brand based in France for a long time.The sneaker variant spread through the fashion world in no time.
The re-returned summer variant of the trend is now also characterized by the "blocking properties" of the Ugly Sneaker.Ugly Sandals are anything but filigree - they too have a particularly large sole, strong straps and big buckles.The designs are actually closer to the functional and hiking sandals than with what you might traditionally expect on the catwalk.How much this impression can be deceptive shows quickly into the collections of the large noble brands: From the Italian fashion house Bottega Veneta to Dior, they are now all designing the summer trend 2021: Ugly Sandals.
Incidentally, the chunky design also brings a very pleasant advantage: Ugly Sandals are extremely convenient.
