65 Footwear Trends in April

From Jelly Sandals to Board Game-Themed Sneakers

This spring has introduced several new footwear trends throughout the month of April alone. New footwear technologies, styles, and innovations are sure to shape this summer's footwear fashions with funky patterns and vibrant colorways.

One notable collaboration between Hush Puppies and Loud Lacquer has inspired the creation of Brite Jells. The squishy and soft jelly sandals boast four vibrant colors, in two styles: a slide-on sandal, and a soft and squishy strap and buckle closure.

Board game-themed sneakers have also made a noticeable appearance in the shoe market. Reebok and Candy Land patterned up to launch an excitingly colorful pack of sneakers. The brightly designed sneaker pack celebrates the iconic Hasbro board game and includes kids sneaker options in the form of the Classic Leather 'Where Kandy Rules' and the Club C 85 'Make the Journey' sneaker.
