Platform sneakers for men from X9X: skate-inspired low-tops on a flat, raised sole, in black and white, black and beige, denim tones and a few bolder colours. Read more Read less
The platform look
Instead of a curved running sole, a platform trainer sits on a thick, flat sole all the way round, so it looks clean from the side and adds a little height. Nova Spark, Gravity Rush, Aero Vortex and Prism Pulse are black and white; Nebula Glide and Arctic Blaze are black on a beige sole; Ember Surge and Quantum Burst use denim black; and Lumina Luxe is plain Ghost White.
How to wear them
Platform trainers suit straight and relaxed jeans, wide-leg trousers, cargo trousers and shorts. Black-and-white pairs go with almost anything; beige and denim tones look best with blue jeans and earthy colours.
Platform or chunky?
Platform soles are flat and even; chunky soles are layered and sculpted. For the bolder shape, see men’s chunky sneakers.
Are platform trainers for men?
Yes. Flat, raised skate-style soles are worn by men and women alike, and every pair here is sized for men in EU sizes with UK and US conversions.
Do platform trainers make you taller?
A little: the raised sole adds some height compared with a standard trainer.
More colours and styles: black sneakers, white sneakers, chunky sneakers, or all men’s luxury sneakers.
Finding your size
Every pair is listed in EU sizes with UK and US conversions. Platform styles start at EU 35, 36 or 38 (UK 3, 4 or 5) and most go up to EU 45 (UK 10); a few go up to EU 46 or 48 (UK 11 or 13). Measure your foot from heel to toe and choose the size that matches, or the next size up if you’re between two. Each product page has a heel-to-toe size guide, and our shoe size chart has the full table.
