11 new white sneakers we are adding to our wish list

Pure and simple

There aren’t many shoe styles that can rival a pure white pair of sneakers. Trends can bring with them prints, neon colours, bulky silhouettes and contrasting leathers, but eventually you will still go back to those minimal kicks.

Why? Because this shoe style works with every single item in your wardrobe. Want to bring some edge to tailoring? Strap your feet into some white sneakers. Need to dress down a maxi dress or a midi skirt but still look elevated? These crystal white shoes are a no brainer. The clean design is what makes them appropriate for any occasion, even a wedding.

Worried about scuffing them? Nail polish remover does wonders on eliminating spots on the sole – just don’t apply to leather, while there are plenty of kits to keep them looking slick and shiny. Don’t stress about the wrinkles that appear on the leather, that gives them extra character.

Timeless as they are cool, white sneakers are an essential part of a chic wardrobe, and below we have picked out some of our favourites to shop now.
