Add This Sneaker Trend to Your List of Things You Didn't Know You Needed
If you're a fan of Kaia Gerber's street style like us, you know she rarely goes without her signature Repetto ballet flats. She wears them so frequently that it almost seems like she has multiple pairs and no other footwear. Last week, my colleagues and I even joked about this. In a surprising turn of events, Gerber was recently seen wearing sneakers, as if in response to our playful comments.
The sneakers I'm referring to are Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Sneakers in a striking red, white, and blue color scheme. Yes, you read that correctly. While this bold and patriotic combination is a surprising choice for someone who usually opts for a sleek, minimalistic look, Gerber manages to pull it off with effortless elegance. The white backdrop with vibrant red and blue details perfectly illustrates how to create a statement while maintaining a classic vibe.

Gerber has a knack for influencing others on what to purchase, so I predict we will see the red, white, and blue sneaker trend all over the streets of L.A., NYC, and London very soon. With that said, keep scrolling to grab a pair for yourself.

Everyone's talking about the Adidas SL 72, but honestly, I prefer the brand's Country style.
