1017 ALYX 9SM Gives the Sock Sneaker Trend a Spin
Heather grey knitting meets a chunky Vibram sole.
Hiking boots, camo-wrapped Nikes and derby shoes — these are just a few of the footwear silhouettes that 1017 ALYX 9SM has dished out this season in order to suffice an array of aesthetic preferences and environments. Up next in the line-up is one of the brand’s most modern editions yet, which sees ALYX put its own spin on the sock-inspired sneaker trend that continues to make its mark in the industry.
The shoe is constructed of leather and nylon and features a heather grey, knitted upper that helps to ensure a glove-like fit. Keeping in line with the label’s other footwear choices, the sneaker is equipped with a Vibram sole that offers a thick and sturdy foundation. Details like off-white leather overlays and a black heel stabilizer add contrast to the style, while tonal logos throughout round it off with branding.
1017 ALYX 9SM’s White Knit Boot Sock Sneakers are priced at $935 USD and available now from retailers such as Browns.
The brand has also given knee-highs a try recently, dropping off a pair of rubberized all-black boots earlier this month.
