First thing to remember about sneakers; One can never own too many sneakers, especially in 2021. From haute-couture collabs to revisiting the year 2000, these are the sneaker to know over for this year.

Regarding the minimal silhouettes, Nike’s Blazer is one of the oldest trainer designs still on rotation. First released in 1973, it was Nike’s best basketball trainer at the time, but has since gone on to find fame among skaters and sneakerheads alike.

Taking inspiration from the crustaceons and and other shell-fish native to the east-cost shoreline of the US, New Balance is dropping off a breezy “Coastal Pack” infused with seaside-inspired palettes. The trio includes two new editions of the 997 silhouette, as well as a fresh version of the 998.

4. Off-White™ x Nike

Initially teased by Virgil Abloh himself during Coachella, here is a better look at the latest Off-White™ x Nike collaborative sneaker. The new kicks feature an entirely unique structure which takes influences from the Nike Air Presto, as seen on the tongue. The one seen above is dressed in more subtle colours of white and beige, while neon yellow hits can be found on the laces, toe cap and the exaggerated traction grips on the rubber sole. Some sections of the shoe have also been crafted from what looks to be glow-in-the-dark panels.

The Coolest Sneakers of 2018

2017 and 2018 have already been an intense years for sneakers seamlessly taking you from the gym to the streets. Designers are creating sneakers that are both comfortable and also trendy and fashionable. They go with just about everything in your closet! From chunky soles to gigantic designs and personalized pairs, white sneakers have always been the winner. Meanwhile, with 90's trends rising the contemporary ways were always in it.
We have done our research and compiled a list of this season’s most-wanted sneaker styles.This is our list of the best sneakers of 2018, so far.

1. Nike Huaraches

Nike Huaraches, created by the renowned and prolific footwear designer Tinker Hatfield, quickly gained popularity with its 90's spirit. Huarache transitioned from a performance product to a streetwear staple with its unique cage and iconic colourways. With its lightweight construction and breathable, bootie-like fit, men’s Huaraches continue to improve upon the original, featuring updated materials designed to enhance performance and comfort.

2. Balenciaga Triple-S

We don't want to confuse the two very different trends of Dad Shoes and Chunky Shoes, but the Balenciaga Triple-S represents the peak for both of them. Besides women loving it big time we cannot deny that the Triple-S has had a massive impact in men's style too. They are basically the start point of the chunky sneaker trend.  Triple-S seems like a weak knock-off of the sneaker that truly set the tone. The year has also seen the silhouette develop and change in both look and price because the shoes sell out as quickly as Balenciaga can make them. It's truly a phenomenon.

3. Reebok Sock Run.R

The sock runner trend, after Balenciaga Speed Trainer, hit its apogee with Reebok's Run.r. The upper is about as simple a sock you can get, with some printing on the throat, but the sole is what's most interesting about the shoe. It's minimal design, cool and comfortable. The look is intense but surprisingly well balanced.

4. Fila x Liam Hodges

Big, ugly sneakers have found new life via these Fila x Liam Hodges kicks.

After first collaborating for Spring/Summer 2018, London-based designer Liam Hodges has reunited with FILA for Fall/Winter 2018. The new capsule takes inspiration from the FILA archives, as well as themes of nostalgia and youth from the main collection.

5. Y-3 Adidas 

Y-3 is always a reliable source of futuristic kicks, and Fall 2018 is no different.

The key piece of every men's wardrobe: White Trainers

Sneakers for everyday is one of the musts for an urban & cool look for men. It’s comfy, it’s stylish; and it goes with every style. It's the no1 thing on menswear list.

This is an ever lasting trend. Everybody – every fashion person – choose to wear white trainers over the loafers, brogues, and oxfords.

Clean, timeless and fuss-free, they are set to be key footwear style.

From Bottega Venetta to Valentino almost all designers have released their white trainers line.  But when it comes to trainers my top 3 brands are Nike, Adidas and Common Projects. 

It’s also easy to decide what to wear them with. I’d suggest pairing yours chino shorts, light washed denims, and a simple shirt or t-shirt for an everyday look. You can also pair them with navy or grey suits. We have already seen them on red carpet! If it's red carpet worthy you can wear them anywhere, anytime.
