Sneakers People Are Wearing In Milan
The first of many.
If you read this Jordan post or follow my personal/@TheShoeGame IG, you know I was in Milan, Italy two weeks ago. It was my first time visiting Italy and the first city I hit is one of the world's fashion capitals.
I'm always in full creep mode when I travel because I'm interested in seeing the sneakers people wear in other states and countries. If you want a visual, just imagine me ducked off in the cut people watching and taking their photo.
I take great pride in being a creep and I'm not ashamed. That said, for the first installment yours truly snapped way too many photos of what people in Milan were wearing.
The most interesting thing about being a traveling sneaker guy is quickly identifying the go-to shoe in a city. For example: in DMV you're going to see a lot of NB 990s & Foams. In LA you're going to see lots of Vans, Chucks and Cortez.
Although I didn't take a bunch of photos, in Milan Saucony is the go-to brand. I saw so many people of all ages wearing the Saucony Jazz model (I included a photo). Aside from Saucony, I saw a little bit of everything.
Keep in mind I was in Milan so high fashion brands are common there. However, I have to say the undisputed worldwide sneakers are still Chucks, Vans Old Skool, and Stan Smiths. Those are the models I saw the most.
You're not going to see a bunch of those featured because that's pointless to me. However, I did want to mention it so that everyone reading this knows. Please let me know in the comments if you enjoyed this column.
I plan on creating content like this for every country/city I visit in Europe and will start doing this in the states.
Once again, please let me know if you rock with this content so I'll have an idea if it's worth my time.
Check out the street style in Milan below. Let me know if you have any questions.
