Double Tap to Zoom

If you were to ask a sneaker historian to characterize the past three years in five trends, there’s no doubt that the term 'chunky sneakers' would crop up. These thick-soled designs dominated the market for several seasons, with names like Balenciaga taking the theme to its illogical extent.

But while luxury houses experimented with extremes, sportswear found a comfortable mid-ground that still hasn’t lost any appeal. A leading example in this field is the adidas YEEZY Boost 700. But with so many options out there it's hard to know which to cop.

Dubbed the Wave Runner thanks to its undulating sole unit, the YEEZY Boost 700 dropped in 2017 and captured hearts and minds with its defining '90s style. Since 2017, though, the YEEZY Boost 700 saga has been built upon several times. The YEEZY Boost 700 V2 and YEEZY Boost 700 V3 offer a much more modern take on the '90s-style original, allowing all wardrobes to make way for the silhouette.

Along with multiple variations on the design, there has been a flurry of wild colorways, our favorite of which are below. We’ve rounded up the best adidas YEEZY Boost 700 silhouettes to cop right now.

Gum soles never lose, especially when they’re working in tandem with an all-black upper. Washed-out black suede combines with the gum finish for a surprisingly authentic vintage take on the YEEZY 700.

The Magnet colorway really makes the most of the unorthodox sole unit. A grey section to the front suggests that the upper is leaking into the midsole, connecting the two components effortlessly.
