Why spend a day in stilettos or leather boots that give you blisters when the most comfortable sneakers can look this good? These days, a pair of chunky platforms or sporty running shoes can basically be worn anywhere. If you have any doubts, just look to Gucci’s sneakers, Loewe’s collaboration with On, or Miu Miu’s designs with New Balance.
With this many option, how do you choose which sneaker trends are ideal for your needs? There are minimal, flat options for wearing on casual trips to the office, or more functional-minded designs for women who may need extra cushioning on their commutes or embrace a gorpcore lifestyle. It’s also a good idea to have a few different options in rotation, both to mix up your outfits and to allow you to level up your support for extra-long days on your feet. Try out different shoe drops (the height difference from heel to toe), materials, and shoe shapes to find one that offers the level of comfort you’re looking for.
