There’s no denying that there has been an invasion of creepers into the fashion world. For those who don’t know, creepers are a chunky flat-heeled sneaker with a thick sole. These shoes can be seen anywhere from Puma and Urban Outfitters to Prada and Jeffrey Campbell. Each designer has curated their very own style and interpretation of this reemerging trend. Some characteristics of the shoe include suede, leather, or multi-colored soles.
Why are creepers making a comeback? Well, they are the perfect combination of style and edge. Pair them with shorts and a T-shirt for a comfy, laid-back look or wear them with a tight dress and a jean jacket for a fun night out. Versatility is what makes these shoes a must-have for the summer.
Now the question is—which style is right for you? If you’re looking to make a statement, I would say that the platform creeper is for you. This style tends to have a thick, flat sole and is bound to make you stand out from the crowd.
However, if you are looking for a more sleek, contemporary look, then the modern creeper is for you. This style tends to have a shorter, more inclined sole than the platform creeper, and can be characterized by shiny leather, intricate designs, and ripple soles.
For those of you who want something right in the middle, there are countless styles that mix the thick soles with a more modern look. So no matter who you are or what your personal style is, there is bound to be a perfect pair for you.
