Our favorite 2025 sneaker trends are finally here to rescue you from your footwear rut. If you’re already revamping your wardrobe with the cutest fashion trends for the year ahead, you might as well refresh your shoe collection, too—and this season, the most of-the-moment options are worth your time.
The overall vibe, as we’ve deduced from scouring the spring-summer runways and spending countless hours walking around New York, is athletic, with slim, retro styles—especially Adidas Sambas—reigning supreme among tomorrow’s shoe trends. While neutrals (such as tan and black) will always have a time and place, stunners (e.g., in-your-face silver and charmed-out kicks) are gaining steam as street style leans further into quirky individuality.
Ready to bring your sneakers up to speed? These are the biggest 2025 sneaker trends we’ll be wearing this year, including high-performance gems and plenty of picks that only look expensive. And don’t worry about investing—these pairs might be trendy, but they all have staying power.
Glamour’s 2025 sneaker trends wish list
1. Court-ready kicks
Everyone needs a good pair of court sneakers in their closet, especially now that gum soles are absolutely everywhere. Adidas Sambas will be just as hot in spring 2025 as they were last year, and other heritage silhouettes from Puma and Nike are also enjoying a major moment. Meanwhile, Loewe and Tory Burch have released popular styles featuring track-inspired, foam midsoles and grippy outsoles—it’s total agreement across the fashion industry. No matter which pair you choose, style it with crew socks for the full throwback effect.
2. Extra-slim soles
