In case you missed it in the group chat, we’re dressing for comfort ONLY in the year 2021. I mean, after the year we’ve been through, it’s a miracle that any of us still have the energy to change out of pajamas. It’s for that reason that sneakers will continue to be your shoe of choice this year. But since I’d be willing to bet your favorite pair are now looking rather sad and depressed, you deserve to go shopping.
Ahead, I’d like to introduce you to the sickest sneaker trends that will level-up your “I’ve been wearing this outfit for three days” look. Spoiler: most of these shoes include platforms.

I probably didn’t need to add this one to the list, because I’d bet money you’re wearing a pair as you read this. But, yeah, in 2021, your Air Force 1s will be just as trendy, so you might as well buy another pair.
