Did you even quarantine if you didn’t wear tie dye sweatpants? Now that we’re six months deep into lockdown, the comfort we once found in psychedelic sweatpants is starting to wane. Sure, we still succumb to the oversaturated swirly splattered patterns like our lives depend on them, but like our sourdough starter, we’re starting to feel like maybe it’s time to move on. Luckily, a new it-print is already on the scene. Checkerboard knits, sneakers, and accessories have crept into our feeds, not so quietly telling us that there’s a new look for the stay-at-home era. From luxury houses like Louis Vuitton to Instagram fashion brands, there’s a label for every budget and style. (Or if you’re feeling nostalgic, you can always pull out your sneakers from your skater phase.) Ahead, 18 ways to try the trend.
