Nowadays we hear more and more frequently about genderless fashion: we are talking about a trend that, although it is becoming more popular in recent times, was already widespread in the 1960s, a period when the very concept of unisex was born.

Along with this one, the notion of label-free fashion was also born, where the style prevails above everything else and where no distinction is made between men's and women's clothing.

This absence of diversity gradually made its way into the world of accessories as well.

The clearest demonstration of this are sneakers, the accessory that more than others has fully embraced the philosophy of unisex style.

Fashion without gender boundaries: a social and stylistic revolution

In recent years, unisex fashion has found a central place in many brands' collections. This shift reflects a society increasingly aware of the need for inclusivity and freedom of expression. The concept of neutral fashion is thus not only a stylistic movement, but also a response to a cultural need: to break free from stereotypes.

Big fashion names such as Gucci, Balenciaga, and Maison Margiela have embraced this philosophy, offering highly versatile genderless-designed luxury sneakers, among others.

Iconic models: the must-haves of luxury unisex sneakers

There is one brand that more than others has been able to make unisex fashion desirable, especially when it comes to shoes: Balenciaga. Balenciaga shoes are now an icon of contemporary fashion that does not respect traditional canons. The model that most embodies this concept of innovation is given by the Triple S, characterized by a sturdy structure and a multilayer sole. They are practically perfect for a streetwear look and are very popular among celebrities such as Bella Hadid.

Another great classic are Nike's Air Force 1, among the most versatile and beloved sneakers ever. Available in different colors and materials, they represent a blank canvas on which everyone can build their own style. Celebrities such as Emily Ratajkowski and Barry Keoghan choose them for their everyday looks, especially in the white version.

The Adidas x Yeezy Boost 350, a collaboration between Adidas and Kanye West, are also unisex sneakers that perfectly embody the fusion of streetwear and high fashion. Lightweight and comfortable, they are perfect for those who love an athleisure look, and much loved by stars such as Gigi Hadid and the Kardashian sisters.

Style tips: how to wear luxury unisex sneakers

Luxury unisex sneakers are so versatile that they look good on everything from casual to chic outfits.

For example, Nike Air Force 1 look great over boyfriend jeans and an oversized T-shirt paired with gold accessories and a statement bag.

For the perfect streetwear look, on the other hand, the Balenciaga Triple S are great paired with cargo pants and an oversized sweatshirt, perhaps along with a baseball cap and sunglasses.

The Yeezy Boost 350, on the other hand, are also great for recreating casual chic looks with high-waisted skinny or mom-fit jeans, oversized cardigans and comfy sweaters, but also for more original outfits with mini-dresses or sporty t-shirt skirts.

Much more than a passing fad

Luxury unisex sneakers represent much more than a trend of the moment destined to fade with the passage of time. They are the symbol of an inclusive, versatile and modern fashion, capable of adapting to any style regardless of gender, they are a must-have in the wardrobe of anyone who likes to express their personality through fashion.

The latter is after all a way to communicate and represents a language with which anyone can and should tell their story beyond labels and stereotypes.
