Breaking News: Isabel Marant’s Wedge Sneakers Are Coming Back in Fashion

Isabel Marant’s wedge trainers (complete with a heel hidden in the rubber sole) were a cult buy in 2012 and an essential item in the L.A. It-girl wardrobe. After a few seasons they fell out of favour, however, it looks like they might be making a comeback in 2018. “Sneakers are so comfortable but at the same time it’s not very elegant … to have a little heel in it makes a difference, it gives you legs,” Marant said to Fashionista about the shoes.

Rosie Huntington-Whitely is currently on holiday in Utah posting a stream of outfit pictures on her Instagram page, however, we noticed in one shot she is wearing a pair of said wedge trainers in black suede. Although they might not be the most popular of pair of shoes right now, there is clearly some demand, as Net-a-Porter currently have three versions available on site.
