For those of us who have endured blisters, bumps, and bandaids for the sake of stylish shoes, the sneaker renaissance in fashion has been a godsend. Today, sneakers can be dressed up, dressed down, and paired with just about any on-trend ensemble. This fall, the perfect pair of kicks just might be your best accessory. From basics to accent styles, here are our picks for the trendiest sneakers to wear this autumn.
Axel Arigato Genesis Stripe Bee Bird
Chunky, neutral toned sneakers are going to be big this fall, but the Axel Arigato Genesis Stripe Bee Bird stands out from the masses. The palette, craftsmanship, and Arigato's signature embroidered bird give these trainers an air of elegance.
Reebok Club C
Why mess with a classic? The Reebok Club C is the perfect retro sneaker to add to your lineup this fall. The Club C brings the white Reebok’s tried and true design into 2021 with a trendy platform sole. Just like your Reeboks from high school, they’re versatile, comfortable, and good news: they go with everything.
Veja V-10 CWL White Rouille
White leather sneakers may be a staple in the fashion world right now, but don’t count out the trend if you prefer a vegan wardrobe. Veja offers a CWL (Cotton Worked as Leather) alternative that gives you the same look, with sustainable materials. Plus, that pop of burgundy is the perfect accent to your fall look.
M. Gemi Giovanna
Haven’t sported velcro sneakers since kindergarten? The Giovanna sneaker by M. Gemi might just be chic enough to bring it back to your closet. These handcrafted kicks are designed for fashionistas on the fly; they’re quick and easy to slip on, and comfortable for long days on the move. The Giovanna promises to keep up with both your lifestyle and your outfit.
Chi Footwear Magic Color
Most style junkies can attest: the best shoes for your outfit and the best shoes for your feet are rarely one in the same. Sneakers by Chi Footwear are an exception. The graphene foam inserts accommodate acupuncture points in the foot which prevent pain by distributing weight evenly and improving circulation. And, with their unique exterior design and embroidered horus eye, the Magic Color Sneakers by Chi will fit right in with the trendiest 2021 kicks.
Lowe Flow Runner
For the luxury sneaker lover, the Lowe Flow Runner in suede is the perfect fall pick. Pairing sleek black leather and gold embossed accents, with soft, neutral fall tones, this sneaker is as versatile as it is chic. You can dress it up, or use it to elevate your favorite fall comfies.
Porte and Paire Felt Slip On
Slip on sneakers have been a fan favorite for several seasons; they’re a great balance between sneaker and shoe, especially if you’re looking for comfort in something less sporty. If you like the laceless look, check out the Porte and Pear felt slip on for fall. The cozy grey material is sure to set off your favorite autumn looks.
Converse Premium Leather Chuck 70
If anybody knows sneakers, it’s converse. This brand is known to reinvent their iconic shoes to keep up with the latest trends, and now, there’s even the option to customize your Chuck Taylor’s to match your unique style. We’re loving the Premium Leather Chuck 70 for fall; it’s the design we’ve known and loved for decades, with an upscaled 2021 edge.
