Forget Dad Sneakers—Here's Why It's All About Grandma Heels for Spring

@suzanneraebk

I'm not saying that dad sneakers are completely obliterated, but I've noticed that they've been fading out. In general, athleisure dressing isn't as popular as it used to be, and the fashion world has collectively made a shift toward more classic and polished aesthetics. Enter the shoe trend I'm dubbing "grandma heels." I mean, what could be more classic than a heel style that's timeless enough to translate across three generations of fashion?

Despite whatever shoe style your grandmother actually favors, I think you know what I'm getting at here—that all the low block heels bubbling up this spring are reminiscent of the kind you'd expect a wise and stylish older woman to wear. What are the defining qualities of the low-block-heel trend I'm starting to see? Sensible heel heights and designs that embody the classic style of my own 95-year-old grandmother. It's not just fashion insiders who are favoring this trend, either. I've spotted Kate Middleton swapping out her skinny stilettos in place of podiatrist-approved block heels on multiple occasions. And once the royals pick up on a trend, you know the rest of the world will take notice.
