Platform Trainers are a style of training shoe that have a very chunky sole and heel, worn by both men and boys as well as women and girls.

[edit] History

They were popularised in the 1990s by The Spice Girls although some male pop band were also sporting the look, meaning that every boy and girl had to own a pair in their collection.

Men and boys will often wear them in conjunction with Baggy jeans, Flares, or Phat pants.

Currently they are being sported on the male pop/rock group McFly in the mid 2000s.
