While intensely controversial, the chunky sneaker trend isn’t going anywhere. The trend is epitomized by Balenciaga’s Triple S sneaker, a shoe whose massive size is matched by both its cult popularity as well as its hefty pricetag ($850).
While the Triple S may be leader of the chunky sneaker trend, there are additional worthy versions of the trend, one of which is the Fila Disruptor, a shoe priced at $40 and up, that’s been in circulation since the mid-’90s.
