Plimsoll (a.k.a. Keds-style) sneakers are creeping back into the footwear conversation as puffed-up designs from Hoka, Salomon, and New Balance give way to the more streamlined Loewe Flow Runners, Adidas Sambas, and ballet sneakers.⁠ ⁠ The plimsoll has a canvas top and injected-rubber sole, and was part of Jane Birkin’s uniform before her death in 2023; she paired them with denim, t-shirts, and (of course) her namesake Birkin basket bags.⁠ ⁠ Puck’s retail expert, Sarah Shapiro, charts the Plimsoll sneaker renaissance, at the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Photo: Jane Birkin, 1985 (Mychelle Daniau/AFP via Getty Images)⁠ ⁠ #JaneBirkin #Sneakers #Keds #Retail
