Why Sneakers Are So Important

If you don’t run or workout, you may never give thought to a good pair of sneakers. Maybe they’re what you wear if you feel lazy, but otherwise, they hide in the back of your closet. Well, I’m here to tell you that sneakers are the best thing you can do for your wardrobe today.

Athleisure is super trendy, so there’s always that. Major brands are making some of the coolest sneakers I’ve ever seen, and they’re not just for your grandma to shuffle around the mall anymore.

Sneakers are a fashion icon. They elevate your social status and are a symbol of mainstream fashion. So many celebrities have sneaker collections, and you can literally wear them with anything. Women are wearing sneakers with wedding dresses these days!

Some of today’s most exciting brands include Nike, Converse, Adidas, Reebok, and Vans. Even things that were popular when we were kids in the 90s are coming back, like Roos. Retro is in, and I’m loving it.

If you can’t afford a massive sneaker collection, start with a classic shape in something neutral, because it goes with everything. You can wear the same pair with joggers, jeans, and dresses. However, if you prefer to make a statement, you can choose different materials and colors like suede, leather, metallics, pastels, and more. Bold neons are also coming back.

Shoes make or break your outfit, but sneakers are something you can build an entire outfit around. They add just a little something to bring your outfit over the top. Cropped pants look great with high-tops, and Keds-style sneakers look adorable with skirts. Pair your sneakers with neutral clothes to highlight their amazing patterns for a high energy ensemble.

Play up textures and styles until you find what works for you. Don’t be shy either. Sneakers are the perfect addition to your wardrobe if you want to feel comfortable and look amazing. You may find that you never want to take them off.
