Comfortable, versatile, ‘gram-worthy and more—our love for sneakers never really ends. While we up our sneaker game, we’ve become more conscious of our purchases — not only keeping our rotation fresh but also turning to timeless and sustainable options that are high in quality and style. Ahead, the best kicks you’ll reach for again and again.
Aside from its iconic line of Dumpling Bags, Beyond The Vines released its very own Canvas Sneaker series that’s designed for everyday ease and utilitarian practicality. Made with 12-oz cotton canvas for sturdy durability, the sneakers feature a classic low-top silhouette (Type 01 Design), that’s available in two colour series, Solid (Series 01) and Colourblock (Series 02).
Here, the sneakers also come with contrasting design features that see product labels and outsoles in the brand’s Engineer Blue hue.
A classic pair of white sneakers can never go out of style. And if you’re looking for a sophisticated and versatile pair that will take you through the years, then consider this pair from New Balance. Boasting a clean and pared-back look, the New Balance 550s offers a cleaner take on the heavy-duty designs of the late ‘80s. What’s more, these kicks are also well-loved by A-listers including Bella Hadid, Rihanna, Hailey and Justin Bieber, Emily Ratajkowski, Laura Harrier and Kendall Jenner.
Another pair of trainers to get from New Balance is the 237s. They are equal parts stylish and preppy. Pair these with your favourite relaxed separates for a laid-back, effortless vibe.
You can’t go wrong with a classic pair of Sambas from Adidas. Originally designed as an indoor soccer shoe, the classic pair has since been upgraded to a street-style favourite. As previously seen on Bella Hadid, the style star usually styles her off-duty model look with a pair of white socks for a more sporty, feminine vibe.
If you’re looking for something similar to the adidas Samba sneakers, you can also consider the Nike Low 77. Boasting an old-school look, this pair of classic, streetwear sneakers is a great go-to if you prefer something a little more casual, but still, look put together.
Wear this retro pair with tailored pants or shorts for a fresh take on smart casual.
Channel your inner hypebeast and make a statement with these badass kicks.
