These $80 Adidas Sneakers Have Replaced All Other It Sneakers

If you love lists of the latest and greatest "hot" items, you've come to the right place. Global fashion search platform Lyst just released its quarterly index of the most popular brands and fashion items right now, and the findings just might make you want to add a new It item to your life. As an FYI, the top three most-searched-for brands right now are Off-White, Balenciaga, and Gucci, and the top 10 items are all over the map.

It comes as no surprise that the Bottega Veneta Padded Sandals that are pretty impossible to find (but you can preorder them here!) are at the very top of the heap, but under them in the number three spot is a pair of Hailey Baldwin– and Kendall Jenner–approved Adidas sneakers that first entered our radar last summer. They're the Adidas Continental 80 Sneakers, which ring in at $80. 

These '80s throwback sneakers have been around for a minute, but searches for them have increased by 170% this quarter, and we can see why they're as popular as ever. As someone who owns them, I can confirm that walking in them is like what walking on clouds must feel like. The retro sneakers look expensive and elevated and magically make anything you pair them with look cooler. 

Keep scrolling to shop the wildly popular shoes (and other still-available items on the list), see how Kendall Jenner wears them, and head over to Lyst for the rest of the report.
