Olivia Wilde Wore the Sold-Out Sneakers I'm Desperate to Get My Hands On


These days, trends move fast. Like, really, really fast. But there is one area of fashion that’s allowed a little bit more time to settle in: sneakers. History shows that sneaker trends, unlike standard fashion trends, can peak for a year or more, with styles like the Adidas Samba and Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 lasting well beyond the modern fashion cycle. A lot of that is because when a brand’s sneakers blow up, they’ll make small but mighty adjustments to their best sellers to keep customers interested. Every time a celebrity or otherwise influential person wears one of these updated versions, a surge in popularity follows.

I say all this to show that buying of-the-moment sneakers is a worthy investment. They won’t be “out” in a few weeks or months—especially not when a street-style star of Olivia Wilde’s caliber gives them her stamp of approval.
