1. Chunky Soles Are Still King

Chunky sneakers are trendy. The size of the shoe will be exaggerated, and minimal details will be added to make them appear inventive.

2. Earth-Toned Neutrals

Sneakers are beige, tan, sand, olive, and clay that have a humble origin that makes them suitable to be combined with cargo or a skirt.

3. Sustainable Styles

Environmentally friendly people are now shifting towards recycled materials, as well as plant-based leather, and minimalist packaging.

4. Retro Revival (80s & 90s Feels)

Old-school trainers such as Nike Cortez, Puma Suede, and Adidas Forum are very much in trend today.

5. Color-Blocking Done Right

Vibrant curtains, colors not imagined, neither dark nor light, are the organizing principles of the future to come in 2025.

6. Translucent Uppers

See-through sections of sneakers allow you to exhibit your socks or simply bring in the cool air.

7. Platform Sneakers

This summer could be the time for more height as raised soles provide your style with the power of being different at once — and by the way, they are also comfortable.

8. Slip-On Silhouettes

Comfortable and easy-to-put-on minimal sneakers are now a trend in both male and female wear.

9. Tech-Fused Trainers

Next-level sneaker with intelligent cushioning, airy knits, and self-adjustable soles—isn’t it amazing?

10. Art-Inspired Collabs

Going back to a time when shoes had hand-drawn images, were covered with graffiti-like prints, and left some space for the presence of an artist, most probably.
