Rubber Shoes Are The Major Shoe Trend Of The Season
Remember jelly shoes? Well, they’ve just got a 2020 update. Perfect for rainy weather and casual summer outings, rubber shoes are the versatile accessory of the season, and they're pretty hot in fashion right now.
Reminiscent of the vintage ‘90s trend, this season witnesses various renditions of the thick, rubbery sole. Gucci launched a series of logo mules in rubber slip-on style that feature a low heel and open toe, while Bottega Veneta reinterpreted the classic rain boots with the BV Puddle, which extends up to the ankle in solid, cheery colours.
