If you’ve been tracking the latest style resurgence, you already know: the Dsquared2 ICONIC SKATE boot is back, and the fashion world is pirouetting into obsessive madness. First introduced in the brand’s Fall/Winter 2011 collection, the high-heeled ice skate boot is making a long-awaited return—just in time for Dsquared2’s 30th anniversary.
The demand has been bubbling under the surface for months. Julia Fox sparked the frenzy when she strutted into Late Night with Seth Meyers wearing a pair. Soon after, pop star Slayyyter flaunted hers on Snapchat, and Mariah the Scientist took the stage in them at an NBA halftime show. Meanwhile, resale prices skyrocketed to $10,000 on eBay, proving just how far fashion fanatics were willing to go. Now, the hunt is over, and Dsquared2 has answered our prayers.


Designed by Dsquared2’s twin masterminds, Dean and Dan Caten, the ICONIC SKATE boot is a love letter to their Canadian childhood and passion for figure skating. The shoe transforms a traditional skate into a razor-sharp stiletto, complete with a lace-up leather upper and a gleaming metallic “blade” sole. Is it impractical? Absolutely. Is it absurd? Of course. But that’s exactly why we want it.
Now, as part of the brand’s Fall/Winter 2025 collection, the ICONIC SKATE boot returns in a crisp snow-white colorway, ready to carve its way back into fashion’s inner circle. Winter isn’t going anywhere, and neither is our obsession with après-ski aesthetics—the ICONIC SKATE boot’s return couldn’t be more perfectly timed. Fashion is embracing a campy, nostalgia-fueled winter sports moment, blending luxury, irony, and sheer spectacle—and these boots capture it all.
This limited-edition reissue is available for pre-order starting February 18th.
