Notice anything unusual with these sneakers? Anything seemingly different from your own pairs? Is it the fact that they're missing laces?! Orthopedic-grandpa shoes for 2015!*gasp* It seems a now emerging trend is laceless sneakers. Velcro sneaks appeared on the runway in full force in every color combo you can think of. Even the dior homme's 90's paper cup print was ooh'd and ahh'd as the male models sauntered down the runways. Maison Martin Margiela showed a shoe that looked undone, prototype-esque in its raw form. Threads were bare, stuffing shown and monochrome paired with fluffy socks you usually steal from hospital stays. Raf added a couple of inches the sole causing many to tower up to 3 inches off the ground in these trainers. The large velcro slapped across the top of the shoe and made the shoe look even bigger than intended. And last but not least was the dolce and gabbana sneakers in various polka dots in individual colors. What I liked so much about the shoe was the clasp buckle on it which reminded me of a car seat! ...Weird, right?
