Glue Store's Top 22 of 2022: Voted by You
Glue Store customers have spoken:
Our customers really said "black and white." With good reason. A functional wardrobe relies on a base of reliable, classic t-shirts, pants and footwear to hit the ground running.
A year with so many twos in it, we're taking a look back on our 22 most-loved pieces of 2022, and taking notes for our wardrobe in the new year.
Trackpants
A staple for Glue customers is trackpants. Keeping these on a frequent rotation and keeping them looking fresh is a great way to maintain a premium, elevated look in your wardrobe for those days when you're at a loss for what to wear.
Style a classic black pair of trackpants by Nike with a t-shirt and a bomber jacket for a convincingly streetwear look. White sneakers never go amiss with no-show socks or with trackpants tucked into crew socks for an athletic look.
The Polo Pony Logo Shirt
The timelessness of a Ralph Lauren Polo button-up shirt hasn't been lost on Glue's customers. You can't go wrong with a black or a white long sleeve button-up. Especially great for those events where you want to look like you know what you're doing - with your style or with anything else.
Womenswear shoppers have been loving platform sneakers by Asics. Blending an athletic look with an elevated (literally) streetwear look, these sneakers are the perfect in-between option for dabbling in white sneakers with more of an edge.
Adilette slides were a big deal in 2022, and are looking to continue into 2023. With Three-Stripe branding, these slides bring locker room athletic vibes to your lounging around home look. Embrace the look completely and pair your slides with socks.
The Utility Trend
Our customers were wise to the utility trend surging through 2022 and into 2023. The Eagle Cargo Pants by Henleys provide a universally flattering fit with the benefit of a neat, tapered leg and the edginess of cargo pockets on each leg.
In 2023 cargo pants will continue to be a favourite in the lifestyle fashion space. These pants are a subtle and effortless nod to the aesthetic even for those who aren't focused on the trends.
The Superga 2750 style was born in Turin, Italy in the year 1911. The brand aimed to produce an athletic, rubber-soled shoe that would suit anybody. The 2750 became established as "the people's shoe of Italy". Now, it has also become "the people's shoe of Glue Store," as one of our biggest sellers.
Nike Sportswear Premium Essentials
Nike Sportswear Premium Essentials t-shirts are a relaxed, generously proportioned garment with a longer construction through the sleeves, reaching to the elbows on slimmer frames. Its heavyweight cotton jersey provides a premium feel and crisp drape while maintaining breathability. Finished with an embroidered Nike logo, the Premium Essentials tee is a wardrobe staple.
The Canvas Sneaker vs The Sustainable Sneaker
Are you a Vans person or a Veja person?
Veja sneakers are renowned for their advancements in sustainability and focus on natural materials in their sneakers. In 2022 Glue customers explored sustainable fashion even more, opting for the natural and organic features of men's and women's Veja sneakers.
On the other hand, Glue customers were also loving classic Old Skool Vans in black and white - the most iconic colourway. As an easy-to-style canvas shoe, there is nothing you can't do with a pair of Vans, from dropping in on the skate ramp to pairing them with a mini dress.
Mixing the Decades
In 2022, Glue Store customers loved mixing decades together, cherry picking the most timeless styles from the years that defined fashion and blending them to create something unique.
Converse Chuck 70s throw it back to the golden-tinged decade of bell bottoms, with their high-gloss foxing tape in a creamy, egret colourway. Pair these with a cropped black tank top inspired by the 90s, or a baggy pair of active shorts inspired by the roomy fits of the early 2000s.
