Why 'Grandpa Sneakers' are the next big shoe trend

We've seen it before with the Dad sneakers trend and the idea of shoes that are so ugly they're cool has struck again.

"Grandpa Sneaker" is the next big fashion trend, according to Hush Puppies who recently released a line of the ugly, just somewhat practical shoes.

The sneakers, which range in colour and feature skinny laces, or even velcro straps, start at $99 USD- a price our Grandpa would never pay... but we probably would!

The shoes aren't yet available in New Zealand, but it's only a matter of time before they are everybody's favourite shoe, right?
