Women’s limited edition sneakers
The shoe is considered, together with the bag, the accessory par excellence of a woman. Seduction and charming symbol, with both a practical and aesthetics function. Shoes and women: a double-threaded love that has lasted for centuries. Over the years, however, fashion has definitely changed and alongside the classic, timeless and super feminine models with heels we find sneakers. Comfortable and versatile, in a very short time they have become a real obsession for the female universe that now combines them with everything: from casual to more formal clothing. Before making a brief recap of the trendy limited edition women's sneakers in 2021, such as the adidas Originals, let's discover together the history of these sports shoes increasingly loved by women of any age.
The history of sneakers: from its origins to the present day
That of sneakers is undoubtedly a long and interesting story. It all began in the mid-1800s, when an American scientist named Charles Goodyear invents vulcanized rubber. Adding sulfur to the heated rubber (a process known as vulcanization) gave rise to an elastic, malleable and waterproof material that only a few decades later was used for shoes, especially tennis shoes. Towards the end of the 19th century, sneakers began to become a mass phenomenon and in a very short time they became popular among athletes, stars and movie stars. Still, around these shoes there is a huge market and a culture of fans who are no longer exclusively men but also women. Once used only for sport, sneakers today are a symbol of fashion and women's emancipation. It is no coincidence that they are the most worn shoes of all, more than heels and flat shoes. To demonstrate what has just been said, just take a look at the social profiles of the most important fashion bloggers in the world, such as Chiara Ferragni or Veronica Ferraro, or the fashion street style proposed in the fashion shows of the most important fashion stylists.
Women’s limited edition sneakers: the best of 2021
Able to play down every style and be perfect on any occasion, women's limited edition sneakers became a real must-have to wear with jeans but also with a dress or a long pleated skirt for a more eccentric and particular look. This 2021 brings with it many models ready to make anyone fall in love, even lovers of a more formal and elegant style. It is precisely to this last category that Alexander McQueen is addressing with his Oversize model that recalls the design of the tennis shoe, vintage icon par excellence: strictly white upper in smooth leather and reinforcement on the heel in contrasting color. An extremely versatile shoe that adapts perfectly to any outfit, even the most sophisticated one. Those who love old school sneakers will be happy to know that vintage models are back in fashion. Golden Goose, with its SuperStars, has decided to propose an evergreen with an aged effect and enriched with glitter or sequin details. A very comfortable shoe that looks good on anyone, capable of giving a super chic touch for a truly unmistakable urban style.
adidas Originals limited edition sneakers
It is difficult, if not impossible, to get rid of the three iconic stripes that have led to the success of one of the most loved and famous streetwear brands in the world: adidas Originals. The company founded in 1924 by the brothers Adolf (called Adi) and Rudolf Dassler, has now become a status symbol for many people. This brand is clear proof that the success of a line, of footwear or clothing, depends on the quality of the materials and their design but also on the logo which in its simplicity often becomes a distinctive sign and a value of uniqueness. This year, in full 80s revival, adidas Originals offers the iconic Continental sneakers, the Campus model, Superstar and the eccentric ZX 6000 in multicolored sequins to create glam looks and give an extra touch of character to any outfit.
