Year after year, sneakers have been slowly—but surely—taking over footwear. What was once a shoe only worn by athletes and sports enthusiasts has turned into a full-blown fashion zeitgeist. And while heels, sandals, mules, and boots are all wardrobe must-haves for this year, there’s just something about the 2021 sneaker trends that makes them stand out from the rest. Perhaps it’s the fact that each trend is cute and comfortable at the same time, or maybe it’s knowing that they add up to endless street style possibilities. Either way, these trends are ridiculously good, so go ahead and clear out your shelves.

Because sneakers have seamlessly made their way into the fashion world, there are so many ways to shop for them. We’re seeing collaborations between sneaker brands and designers all over the place—New Balance and STAUD, Reebok and Victoria Beckham, Nike and Dior , and Adidas and Prada, just to name a few. Sneakers aren’t just for working out anymore, people! They’re a major style must-have, approved by all your favorite retailers, brands and designers.

Of course, it’s likely you already have a pair of go-to sneakers in your wardrobe—but you can never go wrong with adding a few more. And once you feast your eyes upon all the 2022 sneaker trends, you’re going to want to shop each one. From futuristic vibes to fresh takes on vintage styles, there’s so much to love about these trends.
