But one thing is certain: real sneakerheads have not been able to avoid these kicks in recent years. But where does the dad shoe actually come from?
The sneaker trend for ugly dad sneakers with thick soles originated in the 90s. Back then, the sneakers were mainly worn by American dads because of their comfort - hence the name. But nobody thought the sneakers were really cool back then.

The Triple S is considered the ultimate dad sneaker and convinces models, influencers, and even the average sneakerhead - with a futuristic silhouette, patterned laces and, of course, the chunky sole.

On the other hand, the manufacturers offer comfortable retro models that, with their colorways in simple beige and gray tones, fit perfectly with the understated classic look.
What the trainers all have in common is their chunky shape. Whether curved, straight or with an extra platform - nothing distinguishes the Dad Sneaker more than the chunky sole.
