The Shoes That Are Replacing Our White Sneakers This Summer

It doesn’t take an expert to notice that just about every colorful sneaker on the market is out of stock—but when you hover over the neutral colorway? You’ll find just the opposite. It wasn’t long ago that the white sneaker was the shoe of choice for everything from celebrity street style to fashion influencers’ outfit checks. So, what happened?

It makes sense that white sneakers are a mainstay in our closets—after all, what could be more versatile? But when you rely on your accessories to do styling heavy-lifting, white sneakers can’t pack nearly the same punch that colorful ones can. Thanks to society’s recent obsession with Adidas Sambas and Gazelles—which are available in all colors of the rainbow—colorful sneakers are finally being appreciated for what they can do to an outfit (read: totally transform it). Now, just about every footwear brand, sneaker-focused or not, is offering a retro, saturated sneaker. Make way, girls, it’s giving personality!

Whether you’re looking for new ways to style your colorful sneakers or are simply colorful sneaker-curious, these looks might just convince you to put your white sneakers into retirement.

Jeans and a cute top? Say less. It’s an elite combo that’s as old as time—or the early 2000s, realistically—but now, TikTok is reserving the term for outfits that consist of baggy jeans and tight-fitting tops. Take the combo up a notch this season and add in a colorful sneaker. The result will feel effortless and totally cool.

Amidst the sea of neutral linens that the warmer months bring, adding a pair of colorful sneakers to the mix can help lean into the breezy, effortless nature of summer dressing. Pair your linen shorts and pants with your colorful sneaker of choice on the days where sandals simply won’t do.

With a blazer and shorts

Make your blazers summer-ready with the help of a breezy pair of shorts and your favorite colorful sneakers. To make things feel a bit more casual-cool, try pairing your blazer with a pair of boxer shorts in a lightweight cotton or silk rather than a more predictable tailored option.
