A highlight of fashion week is always seeing how others have taken a trend and made it their own, and Hypebeast was on-site at Milan Fashion Week to gather some of the best and most popular footwear trends for the Spring/Summer 2025 menswear season: Sneakers, especially collaborations, continue to be all the rage.
Collaborations like the Bode x Nike Astro Grabber were the highlights of the week. Considered one of the most anticipated sneakers released this year, the entire collaboration sold out in a matter of hours, with many online waiting to purchase the collaborative shoes at retailers. Drake’s NOCTA x Nike Hot Step 2 “Total Orange” brightened up the sneakers seen this week. With Drake’s endorsement, the shoe gained a lot of attention and is slowly becoming a popular model for Nike. In other collaborations, the Wales Bonner x adidas collaboration continues to gain popularity. From Runnersupers to Sambas, Wales Bonner collaborations are fast becoming a staple. The Comme des GARÇONS x New Balance Edition 610S sneakers also made an appearance, along with other classic New Balance silhouettes like the colorful Salomon and 990. Sperry boat shoes are making a comeback, but it remains to be seen if they will gain popularity.
Here are some of the footwear trends to watch out for at Milan Fashion Week SS25.
