This shoe is taking over and we need to talk about it 馃憞
You can鈥檛 go anywhere without seeing someone in these shoes.
So the brand is @Salomon.
It鈥檚 a French outdoor brand, and the shoes are meant for hiking and trail running.
But people have turned them into performative fashion.
Now, I dug into the data on @ParticlHQ.
But you really don鈥檛 need the data to know this.
Just look down in public and you鈥檒l see.
They have a variety of shoes.
But the XT-6 Gore Tex is the one that has taken over as a fashion statement.
Doing almost double the volume than every other shoe.
The basic black and white color are the most popular.
But they have over 350 variants.
So you have definitely seen some version.
Now, this follows a much broader trend.
Fitness and sport is becoming cool and blending with fashion and lifestyle.
With bold colors, unique patterns, and limited edition collabs.
It鈥檚 not about minimal athleisure anymore.
Fitness is a personality trait now.
And people want to express themselves in both what they wear and the activities they do.
