Sneaker Trends for 2025

What is gorpcore? Gorpcore shoes are characterized by thick, durable soles that are worn for functionality rather than aesthetics, but in recent years, it has become mainstream to pair these types of shoes with any casual and dressy outfits alike. Shoes that typically fall into this category are hiking shoes/boots and chunky-sole sneakers.
