You may be living in your boots this week courtesy of the snow storm, but we’ve got another shoe on our mind.
No matter the year, season, or fashion cycle, sneakers have always been an outfit essential.
Our stylists have put together a guide of the top seven sneakers we’re loving (and living in) for 2026. Scroll through to see + shop our favorites!
WHIT’S PICK
THE SNEAKER:
WHY SHE LOVES IT:
Slim sneakers are all I’ve been seeing on the runway (for both men AND women!) and can be a fun and functional addition to your warm weather rotation.
I love this retro track and field-inspired style from Onitsuka Tiger because it feels feminine yet sporty and won’t break the bank!
The low profile looks effortlessly chic with trousers or denim, or you can style them with a dress or skirt for the ultimate It-girl vibe.
BROOKE’S PICK
THE SNEAKER:
WHY SHE LOVES IT:
These sneakers blend early 2000s runner nostalgia with fresh sleek metallic details.
The breathable mesh and gum sole give them a sporty yet elevated feel that fits perfectly with the ongoing luxury meets performance trend.
WHITNEY’S PICK
THE SNEAKER:
WHY SHE LOVES IT:
I started spotting these Solomon’s everywhere on a recent trip to New York City — women styling them with dresses, tailored trousers, and relaxed athleisure.
The vibe feels very off-duty NYC: functional, understated, and intentionally cool. It gave me the courage to wear mine off the trails and into everyday life.
They add just enough edge to everyday outfits while still being insanely comfortable.
BRITT’S PICK
THE SNEAKER:
WHY SHE LOVES IT:
There are plenty of fun fresh takes on sneakers this season, but I am drawn to this Plume style from Miu Miu.
It incorporates a trending lower profile and technical fabrication, while still feeling very wearable.
The brown colorway is also classic but totally relevant.
CHRISTINE’S PICK
THE SNEAKER:
WHY SHE LOVES IT:
I love how sneakers have evolved in the fashion world and continue to maintain their relevance. I’m a Nike girl at heart and my favorite model is the Air Jordan 1 (low or mid).
It’s not just a shoe, it has so much history and bridges the gap between sports, music and fashion. The Air Jordan is considered the most successful sneaker of all time.
This Ice Blue pair is feminine yet sporty and a timeless addition to any wardrobe.
BEN’S PICK
THE SNEAKER:
Maison Margiela’s “Torpedo” Sprinters
WHY HE LOVES IT:
I am very intrigued by what GQ is calling the “torpedo sneaker.” I’ve also seen the designers refer to them as “sprinters.” They’re sleeker than your Sambas with a more retro-vibe, giving a throwback to vintage track shoes.
They seem to picking up steam in men’s fashion and I personally can’t wait to try them out this spring/summer. I’d recommend pairing them back to some straight-leg jeans and a tee, or with shorts this summer.
CANDACE’S PICK
THE SNEAKER:
WHY SHE LOVES IT:
I personally resisted the sporty chunky sneaker for a long while. Turns out, I just hadn’t found the one for me!
I discovered these by Autry and have quite literally become obsessed. Equal parts sporty and chic.
The perfect touch to any laidback outfit…be that denim or leggings with a tall sock. LOVE.
