Tractor-soled sandals: what to wear
The new is the well-forgotten old
Tractor sole on shoes is a novelty not this season and not even the previous one. It first appeared back in the 90s of the last century. Was popular, but in moderation. And 2014 was truly a breakthrough on the fashionable scaffolding of shoes with thick grooved soles. In 2015, almost everyone wore such shoes. And for almost four years now it has not gone out of fashion, but is gaining more and more popularity. What is the reason for this? Of course, with its practicality and convenience. The seemingly bulky heel or platform, moreover, with a rather deep tread, turned out to be stable. The foot in such shoes will not turn up, as it happens with shoes with heels. Moreover, it turned out that the legs do not get tired, so an easy gait remains throughout the day.
Probably, it is for these reasons that the tractor sole migrated from the autumn-winter models to summer ones. And women of fashion more and more often acquire such sandals, especially since the color range has expanded compared to previous years. In addition to white, black, brown, there were also pale pink, blue, light green, beige.
To take or not to take?
Many girls, having watched fashion shows or just seeing such a model on the street, wonder if sandals with a tread sole are suitable for them. It is worth noting here that growth here does not play an important role in the choice. If you are short and choose a model in dark shades and with a moderate platform and tread, the image will work out, there will be no imbalances.
Do not just choose, for example, a model with a white top and a high platform, with clearly deep treads. With a short stature, it will look quite caricatured.
It is important to remember that in such sandals, the sole is the main thing. It is she who attracts attention. Therefore, it is worth choosing summer shoes with such a sole with a minimalistic top - without an abundance of straps, buckles and other details.Please note that the color of the upper and sole may or may not match.
