The “Dad Shoe” Aesthetic We’re Loving

When thinking about the classic “dad shoe” you may picture some old beat-up shoes your dad wore that you never in your life thought would be cool. Today, these traditionally “ugly” shoes are making a comeback with a modern twist to complete the perfect aesthetic outfit. A pair of dad style sneakers has become a staple piece for everyone’s wardrobe and as a bonus, they will be your most comfortable kicks.

Take a look at the modern vs classic options we’ve hand selected below!
