This year, no fashion item has made headlines quite like sneakers. The sneaker trends that have defined the first half of 2025—and those forecasted for the next few months—run the gamut. From minimalist-friendly mainstays, to bold and bright maximalist takes that celebrities can’t get enough of, we’ve rounded up the freshest options to choose from, whether or not you’re a bonafide sneakerhead.

Of course, there have been a plethora of cult styles that, like Sambas, have been worn by what feels like every celebrity and It girl (perhaps a mix of the frequency illusion, and just shared good taste). In no particular order: the Nike Cortez, Puma Speedcat, and the Adidas Taekwondo and Tokyo have all been increasingly popular this year—and we are still backing these styles through the fall season.

However, recent developments include fresh twists on classic, white lace-ups—such as the comeback of canvas kicks, worn recently by Natalie Portman—and Prada’s distressed pair, featured on the fall/winter 2025 runway. Skater shoes are seeing a resurgence, in part due to the power mashup of Vans alongside Valentino’s opulent collection for fall. Bold red sneakers and gum-soled shoes are also hot on our radar, with boxing-inspired high-tops being the surprise hit—a serious fashion talking point, thanks to their major moment on the Celine spring/summer 2026 runway. And as the crisp and cool days approach, don’t put away those Gorpcore staples, either–they’ll be your go-to for rainy, muddy days.

Ahead, the 10 sneaker trends to note for the rest of 2025, plus our favorite pairs to shop.
