It’s instantly recognizable even on a tiny screen, and it happened to emerge at a moment when showing off one’s personal style online was becoming the norm
Photo-Illustration: The Cut When it comes to ugly shoes, we often think of the unholy trinity of Uggs, Crocs, and Tevas. But there’s one controversial footwear choice that is very specific to the 2010s: the Jeffrey Campbell Lita. When the Lita entered our consciousness exactly ten years ago, it became a trend that people either loved or hated, and, according to the response I’ve gotten from tweeting about its anniversary, it seems like that duality hasn’t changed.
Photo: SplashNews.com/SplashNews.com The Lita wasn’t necessarily a groundbreaking design — platform boots aren’t anything new, of course, and many have pointed to Natacha Marro’s “Dungeon” boots as the original inspiration. Still, it was versatile enough to attract a horde of fans, regardless of their sartorial preferences. A Lita boot could work with everything from skinny jeans to skater dresses, and came in every type of color, print, and fabric.
Celine Hakakha, 39, a former shoe designer and fashion blogger, joined the Lita bandwagon after thinking they were “ugly” at first. Like Levin, she liked them for their versatility and how comfortable they were. “They were funky and chunky and pretty aggressive,” she says.
