It was the sheer amount of tucking-in that was on display. Tracksuit tops tucked snugly into striped Adidas tracksuit bottoms. Joggers tucked into slouchy OTK boots. Rigid denim tucked stiffly into knee-high boots… We're au fait with a shirt demi-tucked into a pair of jeans, but this?
You could argue this extreme styling trend started with oversize sweatshirts and hoodies being wedged into bottoms at Vetements, but Kanye—along with his super-stylist, Christine Centenara—has taken the idea to the next level. Fight it as you might, what he does catches on. So between the other new offerings (a fresh sneaker style called the Yeezy Runner, gigantic bumbags and the first sign of jeans), there's a lot to consider. He put the sock-boot trend on the map and sneaker nerds continue to flock to his trainers.
