Raf Simons wants to make Dad-style all the rage in 2017
It sure looks like 2015's "dad bod" trend will be making a revival next year, thanks to the direction sportswear is heading in.
Earlier this month, the reveal of NBA star Steph Curry's sneaker collaboration with Under Armour resulted in snide comments from netizens about how it resembled shoes only dads would be caught dead in.
However, Curry might have hit the nail right on the head with this trend, seeing that Raf Simons unveiled his latest collab with Adidas on Tuesday, with footwear that look straight out of '90s dad style.

The former creative director for Christian Dior put his #tbt spin on Adidas' '90s running sneakers, the Ozweego 2, as well as on a pair of slides.
Available in off-white and navy-black-green colourways, the sneakers modelled with a most dadly finishing touch -- ankle-length white socks. As for the slides, let's face it, who else but dad (and brave fashionistas) would wear them?
Both sets of footwear also come with printed "how-to" instructions, which any DIY-loving dad would appreciate.
The collection is set for Spring/Summer '17, so there's still plenty of time to lose the six-pack and start learning how to dress like your dad.
