Fashion brands are really blowing our minds this season, no one is slacking, in fact, they are turning up the heat in winter.

Inspired by real astronaut boots, the CHARLES & KEITH Winter 2022 collection leans into comfort and function

Their latest collection gravitates towards extra-sturdy chunky footwear that can conquer any terrain and an array of oversized silhouettes that cradle and cushion. Elements from real astronaut boots, such as large capped outsoles, ribbed toe cap detailing, pebbled leather, and rounded button tabs are applied to boots, sneakers, and Mary-Janes. Bags are supersized, soft, and subtle — ready for a getaway at a moment’s notice.

Aughts-inspired fashion continues to trend. The Carlisle platform Mary Janes features sculptural platform soles, a delicate rose print, and skinny Y2K-style straps. The Adrian range of utilitarian footwear is designed in the same heavy-set style — these striking shoes’ chunky lug out-soles hug and insulate the wearer from the outside world.
