Modern fashion often stuns the older generation. Here my grandmother does not understand such shoes as platform sneakers at all. Well, what about me? Most girls and I understand them perfectly. After all, it is interesting, stylish, and most importantly - comfortable. It is very difficult for a girl to go out all day in high heels.

Isabel Marant came up with the idea of modernizing the sneaker in 2011. Crazy popularity immediately spread to this model. Well, they are called in honor of the creator - arrowroot. Her firstborn was a kind of hybrid of sneakers, sneakers and shoes. Remember that this is an informal style and it is better not to wear them to the office.

Summer models are sewn from coarse fabric, have small holes. As if they were made for long walks in the sun-drenched park. Choose colored or denim shorts for them, a T-shirt with an interesting print.
Don't listen to the older generation. Fashion must develop, new ideas must surprise others. Please your feet with comfortable shoes that you can wear with pleasure both in summer and in winter.
Sneakers have firmly entered our everyday wardrobe, notably displacing both stilettos and flats with boats. Casual and sport-chic styles that were once unfamiliar have taken their toll, with fashionable ease making you fall in love with the combination of light sports shoes and a dress - whether it be a mini or maxi, a strict trouser suit or playful cropped pipes. What can we say about shorts on the eve of summer! Briefly summing up, sneakers are our everything. However, there is a small snag - namely, what to wear with black sneakers? And how to do it correctly in order to comply with all the rules, while remaining the most original and unsurpassed? The most detailed answers and tips (together with illustrative photo examples of the best street style looks) in our article!
Black sneakers: options
It will not be possible to find completely black ones, do not hope. As a rule, unless on order, there are original black and white ones on sale. White can be presented only with the sole or with the addition of color on the upper. Laces do not count - here you are free to do as you please.
Depending on the height of the top, the models are divided into low, medium and high.
How to wear black sneakers: the basic unspoken rules of style
Despite all the versatility, black sneakers are on the black list for combination with the following items of clothing:
- Pompous evening dresses
- fancy costumes
- Sheepskin coats and fur coats
You can take a chance and add sports shoes, but twisting in front of the mirror, you yourself will understand how ridiculous all this put together looks. The original image will not work, but the flashy vulgarity will even declare itself. However, if you are confident in your abilities and strive to know all the facets of extravagance, you can take a chance. Just don't say later that you weren't warned.
What suits these lovely black sneakers
Everything. In fact, everything. Except for the above, of course. But first of all, black sneakers look great with monochrome ensembles. The image is not only stylish, but also practical. Do not forget about soft pink and blue-blue shades, brown and yellow tones in clothes. And the basis of the wardrobe will be:
- Jeans and sneakers - an alliance stronger than NATO. Whether it's boyfriend style or skinny, straight, low or high waisted, well-worn, torn or embellished with appliqués, embroidery, and even rhinestones - everything will come in handy.
- Leggings.
- Skirts: from denim, tweed, silk and tulle to leather.
- Shorts.
- Dresses: maxi, midi, mini, lace and translucent. Fitted, trapezoidal, tight. Cotton, knitted.
Do you need a bright accent?
Yes and no. Do not blame me for the lack of categorical advice. In fact, such a pass in the recommendations only says that this is the very rare case when you are completely free to choose. But, you see, who among us will refuse a spectacular belt or bag, hat? However, their absence will in no way affect your ensemble. Still, casual means simplicity and cunning plainness. A sporty accent calls for purity of form and straight lines.
Photos of street style images and a brief overview of them to get a taste: what you should pay attention to
- High-top sneakers, mid-thigh shorts and a leather jacket that won't let you down.
- Modest black jersey, but what an effect!
- Little black dress - sneakers can conquer even him.
- A simple white T-shirt and denim shorts rule the show.
- A photo proving that silk and satin are not a hindrance to sneakers.
- Modern Beauty looks exactly like this.
- Sport chic and striped sneakers.
- Light chiffon dress and black and white sneakers? Easily! And stylish.
- Parisian easy style: turtleneck (in spring and summer, either short sleeves or no sleeves are desirable) and cropped trousers. The latest trends say that the bottom should be a little flared.
- What socks to wear with sneakers or sneakers? Only with those that protect the surface of the skin from contact with the inside of the shoe, especially the back. And they look out a little. If you want to go higher, take knee-highs right away. And no three-quarters - it looks wretched.
- Leather leggings. Here it is important to take into account the top: the top can be striped - a great contrast, or a simple white T-shirt or T-shirt. And bright colors will make you look like a balloon - not the best compliment.
- A light and loose white dress, in comparison with conditionally heavy sneakers, will give the image an all-conquering femininity.
Types of shoes - classification in pictures
Fashion dictates trends and trends and there are so many names of shoes that it is not surprising to confuse something! It is especially difficult to navigate and distinguish between types of shoes in English.
Let's try to cover at least some types and classifications. The signs of classification are different: season, material of manufacture, who wears it, etc.
Initially, the classification is simple: women's and men's, seasonal (summer, winter, autumn, spring,) demi-season.
Seasonal shoes are logically divided into 4 seasons. Demi-season shoes includes two periods: autumn-winter and spring-summer. We choose demi-season shoes when you need to smoothly transition from autumn to winter shoes, from winter to spring, and from spring to summer. These are exactly the shoes that are chosen not specifically for the time of year, but for weather conditions.
There is also a simple classification into women's and men's shoes, leather and non-leather. All types of shoes and their names and classification, of course, cannot be covered. But we will try to know the basics.
You can write a lot about these classifications and subspecies. But I would like to literally touch on the topic of incomprehensible words and names in a couple of words.

Classification and types of men's shoes in pictures
I will most likely devote a separate topic to this, but in this post I want to show you a schematic division of men's shoes!
Good afternoon, if you have come to this page, then you need to know all the names of modern shoes ... so that you no longer get confused in its types and have no doubts about the name of what you are wearing at the moment. Apparently one of these days someone called your moccasins an incomprehensible word LOAFERS, and sports slippers, which have been serving you faithfully for the second season, unexpectedly turned out to be SLIPONS. And you firmly decided to clarify the situation about the name of all this MODERN SHOES ... In this article I have collected in pictures all the names and all types of shoes - now you can confidently distinguish OXFORD DERBY boots and never confuse LOAFERS with SLIPPERS.
So, welcome to the world of modern types of shoes and their English names, which have become part of the fashionable vocabulary of the Russian people.
Let's start with the types of shoes on a flat sole... smoothly move on to boots and all their kinds... and finish women's shoes(yes, there will be Louboutins too).
The names that we will analyze are equally present both in the types of women's shoes and in men's models. That is, for each variety from the list there are female and male styles. Therefore, today you will learn not only to understand women's shoes, but also in the men's store you will be able to show off your erudition.
Types of shoes with FLAT SOLE
(modern shoe names)
Let's start our list of shoes. All names will be with pictures and explanations of what is the characteristic difference between this species and all others.
The first name is beautiful with the taste of aircraft - ESPADRILLES (just like a flying squadron). Let's take a closer look at this type of shoe.
Espadrilles are a type of shoes that are distinguished by a woven sole and a natural (usually textile) upper material.
Where did it come from - initially the Spaniards came up with these shoes. They wove the soles out of ropegrass, and the uppers were made out of cheap jute material. Such shoes, due to their naturalness, were pleasant for the feet in hot stuffy weather. Very quickly, not only poor Spaniards, but all glamorous Europe began to wear these shoes.
The next name of shoes is SLIPONY They also gave me soft and comfortable textile slippers. But they are very different from espadrilles, just look at their appearance and find the differences.
Slipons- these are shoes with a soft sports sole made textile. A characteristic feature of slip-ons is a slightly protruding tongue and an elastic band next to the tongue. This type of shoe is worn with a sporty look, with jeans of all styles from skinny to boyfriend. Slip-ons of delicate colors also look appropriate with daytime summer dresses. The picture below shows that this type of footwear is often sewn not only from breathable textiles, but also from leatherette leather with various fashionable textures (like a snake or a crocodile).
Very often, slip-ons are given the name of another type of shoe SLIPER (they are really similar). Let's see what is the difference between slippers and slip-ons.
Slippers - similar to slipons only the shape of the tongue- but differ from them in the first place by the absence of an elastic band, and a solid sole (see the picture below). As well as the material from which they are made (sleepers are often made from smooth non-textile materials). Sole this type of footwear is the same as flat pumps. spout shape slightly pointed, with a graceful roundness. And in the place where the slipons have an elastic band sewn into the slippers, it’s just empty cut.
Now let's get acquainted with such a shoe name as LOAFERS . A beautiful elegant model of women's shoes and a stylish style of men's shoes for tight trousers.
Loafers are easy to distinguish from moccasins and sleepers - all loafers have jumper on the toe(just over the tongue) Loafers are often decorated with tassels or small metal buckles on the jumper tab.
Loafers - originate in Norway of the last century (they were worn as indoor shoes and had a soft sole. The Gucci fashion house brought a new loafer sound - they gave the loafers a solid sole and a gold jumper on the toe. Loafers were popular from the first users - John F. Kennedy, Grace Kelly , Michael Jackson - how can a mere mortal resist and not buy himself a similar type of shoes (at least get close to the great ones).
The name MOCKASINS is familiar to us since childhood, and here we consider them only to identify their differences from loafers and topsiders. Now we will compare this type of shoe with its cut brothers.
Moccasin- moccasins are the name of the shoes that the Indians gave us. Moccasins have U-shaped stitched spout with a convex relief seam. This is a real moccasin cut. Although sometimes a jumper (a strip of leather) is sewn over the tongue of a moccasin, and then the moccasins already acquire the sign of loafers ... and the controversial question arises of loafers on our feet or moccasins. This is such fun))) - you can argue and even fight.
The next name for shoes that are close in cut to moccasins is TOP SIDERS. - most often these are men's shoes, although they are also found on women (but rarely).
Dockside- topsiders in their cut resemble moccasins. A distinctive feature of this type of footwear lies in its sailor flair - a decorative lace runs along the upper edge of the boot. They differ in a cord threaded along the top of the shoe, which serves as a decor (like a lace in the collar of an English sailor).
It's funny that their names in English (docksiders) and in Russian (topsiders) are different. In Russia, they are called topsiders by the name of the Sperry Top-Sider company, which invented them in 1935. This type of footwear was specifically for sailing yachts - the ribbed sole allows you to not slip on a smooth deck, and the beige or white color of the sole (as opposed to black) does not leave marks on the expensive deck flooring.
The next type of shoes MONKI more common in men's collections, although women's options similar in design also come across on fashionable bows. Let's look at this variety of modern shoes.
Monkey- the type of footwear that distinguishes the presence of a strap with a buckle- sometimes one, more often two at once. The height of the monks is not higher than the ankle (this is how they differ from such types of shoes as COSSACKS)
The name of this type of footwear comes from the Anglian word MONK "monk". It was the monks who, back in the 11th century, came up with the idea of wearing such simple boots with a clasp in the form of a wide strap and buckle. They were very convenient to take off and put on without getting tangled in the laces swollen with dirt. The poor monks made such shoes, of course, not from their skin, but from coarse textiles. And in the modern world, this shoe design is sewn from expensive, high-quality, smooth, shiny leather.
TYPES OF SHOES WITH LACES
(oxfords, derbies, brogues, deserts)
But the type of shoes that everyone knows - and everyone calls them OXFORD - once they fell in love with Oxford youth and with their light hand, that is, their feet, they became popular and spread to the whole honest world.
Oxfords differ from all other similar types of boots in that LACE BOARDS are sewn with their lower edges into the cape boot. That is, in fact, the lacing of this type of footwear performs a decorative function, it does not really expand the toe when unlacing. By the way, the correct lacing on Oxford shoes is considered to be the one where the lines of the laces run in neat parallel stripes (and not as in the picture above). The photos below show us that in the modern world, the design of Oxford shoes can be the most imaginative and even freaky.
And here are the Derby boots - a type of shoe that is often confused with OXFORD. But they have one very obvious difference.
Derby boots sidewalls are sewn over the main part of the boot. And therefore, when the laces are untied, these sidewalls can bend freely (spank like ears). And if you remember, in Oxfords, opposite the sidewall of the lacing part, they are tightly sewn into the toe of the boot and cannot be folded back and even move apart with difficulty. They are less official, than oxfords, and therefore they can be worn not only with trousers, but also with jeans and corduroy trousers, chinos, etc.
You probably noticed that many of the shoes presented have perforation in the form of holes to ventilate the feet in hot weather. For such a holey type of shoe, a special name was invented - these boots are called BROGs.
Where did Brogie boots come from?- It is believed that this type of shoe has Scottish roots. It was there that the Scots grazed their cattle in tall and wet grasses, suffering from wet boots. Before the boots had dried out during the night, it was again necessary to drive the cattle out to pasture and put on nasty damp shoes. That's why the idea arose to make holes in the boots for their quick airing and drying.
Brogues are a type of footwear ideal for trousers made of cotton or linen fabric, for chinos, corduroy pants and elastic sports pants. As you can see in the picture below, brogue boots can have both oxford and derby designs.
The next type of shoe on our list is DESERT. They got their name from the word desert. It was these boots that the British military wore in Egypt. The hot sand did not make the heels hot thanks to the thick sole, and the soft leather allowed the feet to feel comfortable and comfortable. When the war ended, the remnants of the uniform were sold freely and fell in love with the entire civilian population of England.
A distinctive feature of DESERT are their thick sole and soft, more often suede leather and a very small number of holes for lacing. Women's versions of these boots are often put on a heel and make a more sophisticated toe.
And in their cut, they are very similar to the next type of CHUKKA shoes . In fact, deserts are one of the varieties of Chukka boots. Let's look at this type of boots, very beautiful and concise in their meager ascetic lacing and the simplicity of a laconic smooth cut.
Chukka (or chakka) boots differ from deserts more free cut range- it is allowed from higher sides ... and more holes for lacing are already allowed - not two, but three. And the material for this type of footwear no longer has to be suede - even smooth patent leather is only welcome.
TYPES OF HIGH BOOTS
(Chelsea, Timberlands, Dr. Martins, Snickers)
Now the turn has come to high boots and the first in this list of styles are smooth and minimalistic in its design CHELSEA BOOTS. They are often found in both men's and women's types of shoes. I will specifically write an article about what you can wear with such fashionable and insanely comfortable boots for women.
Chelsea boots- Chelsea boots do not have any decorative elements on them - no buckles, no laces. They are laconic in their cut and their beauty lies in their pure radiance and impeccable smoothness. They have a side slit on both sides, into which an elastic band is inserted, for ease of dressing.
Fashion houses often play with this laconic style of women's shoes, giving it different additions in the form of a heel (as in the photo below) or perforation and a cut without elastic.
High boots in military style, which our people still like to call boots or army boots, in the states they call it DR. MARTINS.
Dr. Martens- this type of boots is decorated with high lacing to the very top of the shoe. They have quality soles with deep treads, making them comfortable shoes for muddy off-season and slippery winters.
Designers love to play with heavy combat boots by incorporating Oxford-inspired designs, BROG perforations, or thin wedges (see photo below).
Timberland boots TIMBERLANDS - in translation, it sounds like a forester's boots. They differ from other lace-up boots with a height just above the ankle and a velvety surface of the material from which they are sewn.
The popularity of these boots brought cheerful mustard color- such a color scheme turned out to be crucial for the popularization of this type of footwear. Now this color is considered the classic color of the TIMBERLANDS. A feature of the design of these boots is their ability to fold the fur outward.
Well, the turn has finally come to bitinok with a chocolate name. SNICKERS - got the name from the word "sneak" - the soft, silent sole of this type of shoe allows you to silently sneak up.
Sneakers are similar to sports shoes - because of the flexible rubber sole and the cut, close to sneakers with Velcro or laces. This shoe was originally used on the tennis courts- and now she was raised to a high platform and even to a wedge for lovely ladies who have long dreamed of sneakers with heels.
This is such a journey into the world of names for shoes that we made today. Now you feel like an expert in a variety of different types of shoes ... and are well versed in all types of lace-up boots. Now you can instructively comment on fashion articles on fashion blogs and correct negligent hacks who called derby oxford boots.
And that is not all…
I am inviting you in continuation of this article.
After all, we are not finished yet ... we have to figure it out with types of women's shoes, Yes, and the boots did not hurt to build in a strict classification ...
Good luck with your choice of shoes.
