Plush Retro Chunky Sneakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Nike's Olive Canvas Colorway Explores Soft Textures

— November 26, 2018 — Fashion
Sportswear label Nike introduced the signature Outburst sneakers in a new colorway entitled 'Oliva Canvas.' The new tonal option boasts retro design elements that explore different soft textures over the uppers -- this gives the sneaker model a plush look. The uppers take on dual-tones in soft suede fabric materials and boast contrasting elements in the form of bright yellow.

The yellow hits the tongue through branding accents, with embroidery at the heel that reads "Just Do It" and over the lacing system as well. The sneaker's lining correlates to the plush finish with khaki fabric as an additional layer of texture. This all sits atop a clean white midsole made from Phylon along with a rubber outsole in black.
Trend Themes
1. Soft-textured Chunky Sneakers - Sneaker companies have the opportunity to explore soft-textured uppers on chunky shoe designs.
2. Dual-tone Suede Sneakers - Suede fabrics with contrasting dual-tone colors can add a retro and chic element to sneaker designs.
3. Plush Lining Sneakers - Sneaker companies can add an extra layer of texture with plush linings to give shoes a luxurious finish.
Industry Implications
1. Footwear - Footwear companies can innovate designs using soft textures and contrasting colors to appeal to fashion and sneaker enthusiasts.
2. Fashion - Fashion designers can incorporate the plush textures of the chunky sneakers into their lines to offer both style and comfort.
3. Retail - Retailers can showcase the trend of soft-textured chunky sneakers in their stores and online platforms to add variety to their inventory.
