Birkenstocks may come and go, but sneakers and espadrilles are two classic shoes that will never go out of style. So, it comes as no surprise that a hybrid espadrille-sneaker silhouette has been popping up everywhere this season.
That’s right, two of our favourites have become one, with WhoWhatWear coining the style “sneakerdrilles”. They combine everything we love about espadrilles—the woven raffia sole and casual, but chic, look—with the versatility and comfort factor of sneakers.
