As much as heel lovers will try to deny it, sneakers are necessary footwear. Sure, you can get on a treadmill in heels and *possibly* end up with amazing calf muscles\u2014but you more likely run the risk of ending up with a serious injury. The aversion to the sneaker<\/a> probably stemmed from their functionality aspect: no one wants to wear something because they have to or because it “makes sense.” If they do, it’s automatically undesirable. Think about it: the commuter shoe of choice was a sneaker (think Working Girl<\/em>) and you’d change out of them as soon as you got the chance. But recently, sneakers have become a coveted style choice. Season after season, the sneaker has been reimagined to be an exciting footwear option instead of one that’s merely necessary.<\/p>\n

The ugly dad sneaker has reigned supreme for several seasons, with designers like Balenciaga<\/a> and Yeezy<\/a> releasing their dominating iterations of the trend. But despite the popularity of the chunky and ugly trend<\/a>, signature styles\u2014\u00e0 la Adidas Gazelles and classic Vans, and more recently designer collaborations\u2014are finding favour with the fashion community, too. These newer fashion-forward styles are solidifying the fact that sneakers aren’t just about performance and functionality anymore; they are just as much of an outfit maker as your heels and sandals. Sneakerheads everywhere have been screaming about this and we’re finally listening. We’ve rounded up a mix of the best styles you can get now so you’ll always look good no matter what kicks you choose to wear.<\/p>\n
