Sneakers are an athleisure staple that oft goes overlooked—unless you’re a sneakerhead, of course. But those of us who aren’t willing to stand in line at 4 A.M. just to get our hands on the latest Nike release tend to, well, ignore them—to fail to stock up on sneakers the same way we stock up on sports bras and leggings and honestly, even socks. The value of cute sneakers has fallen by the wayside, trumped, instead, by other comfy-cute basics. And anyone who understands the value of literally any other kind of shoe should know what a misstep this is.
No outfit is complete without a pair of shoes—both literally and aesthetically. Navigating the terrain of the world sans shoes isn’t a challenge I’d wish on anyone. And let’s be real, shoes are cute. Your dress looks better paired with statement-making stilettos, and your cropped trousers are truly complemented by the chunky cut of a Chelsea boot. The same goes for altheisure; nine times out of 10, your already-trendy ensemble is rendered even trendier by the addition of cute sneakers.
Not to mention, sneakers are probably the most vital element of any athletic outfit—if you intend to work out in it, that is. Lifting weights in open-toed shoes is poor form, and running on a treadmill in anything other than your go-to sneaks is straight-up ill-advised. Sneakers exist for a reason: They protect your toes and keep your feet in ship-shape, no matter what you’re doing. And cute sneakers exist for a reason, too: They protect your toes and keep your feet in ship-shape—while adding a little welcome flair to any outfit.
Thankfully, our go-to retailers have thoroughly gotten the memo on this one. A quick browse of your favorites will reveal that cute sneakers are available in spades online right now—especially cute sneakers of the colorful, retro-inspired variety. Whether you’re looking for the cherry on top of your go-to athleisure look, the ’90s accessory your super-retro wardrobe was missing or, you know, a pair of sneakers you actually want to work out in, your options are many. Scroll on.
