There are few staples that can make a wardrobe more seasonless and timeless than a good white sneaker. Like a worn-in pair of jeans, a favorite t-shirt, or a classic trench coat, a fresh pair of white tennis shoes just feels effortless—no matter what style you choose or how you choose to wear them. Their versatility is apparent, and though they are a true classic all year around, their appeal is maximized come the warmer months. Be it your best sundress, denim, or your favorite sweatshirt, there is no denying the allure of an ultra-clean pair of white sneakers.
The love affair between fashion and sneakers has been going strong for many years now, thanks in part to the rise of well-known styles like the Nike Air Force 1 or the adidas Stan Smith being at the forefront of street style and becoming fashion staples. When spring rolls around, these fresh kicks always deliver, so much so that we find ourselves restocking on favorites year after year. So whether you like it flirty or street, we guarantee this list holds one good pair (or three) that are sure to become your go-to kicks this season.
