Latest streetwear trends are calling for a 90s comeback. And the centre of attention this season are platform shoes.
From denim and big jumpers to logos and sportswear, designers are bringing some old styles back, looking even better than before. And a trend not to miss is one of the key items from that period – the iconic platforms.

The Balenciaga Crocs brought a lot of controversy to the internet. You either love them or hate them. But one thing is for sure – people can focus as much as they want on the Crocs, yet the main thing about this design is the hidden 90’s trend behind it.

The platform shoes and trainers were first introduced by the German company Buffalo. They became a world sensation back then and are now ready to inspire us once again. We can already see that kind of footwear in the latest collections of brands such as Puma, Vans, etc.

Besides giving you the badass look, the platforms also make you taller and are very comfortable to walk in. Especially as they are much lighter now than they used to be in the 90’s. So why not go out there and embrace the ultimate 90s style? We are sure that you will not regret it.
