This Runway-Inspired Trend Is a Major Throwback

Remember when clogs adorned the feet of fashion girls everywhere back in the ’90s (not to mention the ’70s)? Well, if you’re tired of barely-there stilettos, you’re in luck—wooden heels are making a comeback this spring. On the S/S 17 runways, we saw strappy pumps step aside, while more practical shoes like lace-up ballet flats and pool slides reigned supreme. This season’s take on the Swedish style features a higher (but still walkable) heel, perfectly in line with the modern It girl’s refusal to be anything other than comfortable in her own style.

Footwear label Jambu is one step ahead of the wooden-heel trend, offering fresh iterations for spring in sleek black leather and a romantic lilac-hued suede accompanied by hardware accents in on-trend rose gold. Plus, comfortable construction with extra cushioning. Style them with other of-the-moment pieces like statement sleeves and frayed-hem denim for a retro-inspired look that will instantly elevate your off-duty style.
