The Best Colorful Sneakers Available in 2024
It doesn’t take an expert to notice that just about every colorful sneaker on the market is out of stock—but when you hover over the neutral colorway? You’ll find just the opposite. It wasn’t long ago that the white sneaker was the shoe of choice for everything from celebrity street style to fashion influencers’ outfit checks. So, what happened?
It makes sense that white sneakers are a mainstay in our closets—after all, what could be more versatile? But when you rely on your accessories to do styling heavy-lifting, white sneakers can’t pack nearly the same punch that colorful ones can. Thanks to society’s recent obsession with Adidas Sambas and Gazelles—which are available in all colors of the rainbow—colorful sneakers are finally being appreciated for what they can do to an outfit (read: totally transform it). Now, just about every footwear brand, sneaker-focused or not, is offering a retro, saturated sneaker. Make way, girls, it’s giving personality!
Whether you’re looking for new ways to style your colorful sneakers or are simply colorful sneaker-curious, these looks might just convince you to put your white sneakers into retirement.
1. With All White
Wearing an all-white outfit is, in my opinion, the chicest way to sport a colorful sneaker. Sure, you could just as easily pair this look with a white sneaker, but where’s the fun in that? Try updating your favorite white summer dress with a bright shoe—bonus points for coordinating accessories.
2. With “Jeans and a Cute Top”
Jeans and a cute top? Say less. It’s an elite combo that’s as old as time—or the early 2000s, realistically—but now, TikTok is reserving the term for outfits that consist of baggy jeans and tight-fitting tops. Take the combo up a notch this season and add in a colorful sneaker. The result will be effortless and cool girl-coded.
3. With Head-to-Toe Color
Ready for a challenge? Might I suggest leaning into color even further and pairing your colorful sneakers with—dare I say—another color? Try out-of-the-box combinations like yellow and blue, red and orange, and green and pink.
4. With Similar Shades
If you happen to find yourself in a styling rut, experiment with a monochromatic look. The key to a successful monochromatic outfit is to work with slightly varying shades of a color instead of trying to match each piece perfectly. You want this to look like you quickly threw it together without trying too hard.
