Ah, fresh white sneakers. Just like figure-flattering jeans, a cozy hoodie, or a perfectly broken-in leather jacket, these eternally stylish shoes are simultaneously on-trend and timeless. The right pair of white sneakers offers endless versatility, pairing with just about everything from comfy sweats to chic fall dresses.

Because crisp white sneakers are always in style, there's something to cater to every mood—whether you prefer sporty cool kicks, retro-inspired trainers, chunky platforms, or more minimal silhouettes—and almost any occasion. Casual workday? Sure. Date night? Check. Road trip? Definitely.


What to consider when shopping for white sneakers

Material: Canvas, leather, and suede are all suitable year-round. Still, plenty of sustainable options will have you rethinking what eco-friendly footwear looks like (spoiler alert: It’s pretty cool).

Design: Are the sneakers designed for optimized performance or everyday wear? Or perhaps they toe the line and are as comfortable and supportive as they are stylish?

Ahead, we've compiled a list of the best white sneakers for women to your rotation right now, including affordable options from beloved brands like Adidas and Converse, supremely comfortable running and walking shoes from the likes of On, Hoka, and APL (including one pick from Oprah herself), a few seasonal styles, and plenty of soon-to-be classics.

As the sneakers of the moment, there's a good chance you're seeing Adidas Sambas pretty much everywhere. We love the timeless sport-inspired style that compliments everything from tailored suiting to pretty sundresses.

Princess of Wales Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have both sported these canvas lace-ups with everything from polished cropped trousers to casual skinny jeans. The breathable cotton canvas uppers make them the perfect footwear for year-round wear. Another cool thing is that if you get them dirty, you can throw them right in the washing machine to clean. Pro tip: these sneakers tend to run true to size or a little large. You may want to go down a half size if you are in between sizes.

It's no secret that Oprah is a fan of APL shoes.

"After wearing these running shoes to hike through the Grand Canyon, I can confidently say they go the extra mile. They have four-way stretch uppers, motionflex outsoles, cushiony midsoles, and a supportive 3-D grid pattern in neutrals and pretty pastels."

New Balance has become one of the dominant sneaker brands in the past few years.

If you want to step up your everyday look with a luxury sneaker, let's put aside the Alexander McQueen oversized styles and swap in these Loewe Flow Runners. Loewe's brand value has increased over the past few years and is only expected to take off from here.

Why We Love It
  • Timeless design is always in style
  • Recycled and vegan materials
What to Consider
  • May not offer enough arch support

Does it seem that nearly every sneaker has a contrast color heel tab? You may be surprised to learn that the trend originated with the Stan Smith trainer. A beloved classic for a reason: This tennis sneaker may have originated on the court, but it earned its style stripes on the streets. Each pair is made with an OrthoLite insole for high breathability, outstanding shock absorption, and foot comfort. Reese Witherspoon and Victoria Beckham have been known to sport this timeless silhouette.

Best Sneakers with Extended Sizes

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Canvas Sneakers

Why We Love It
  • CX foam midsole and insole for support
  • Affordable
What to Consider
  • May not offer enough arch support

In case you need an explanation of the appeal of these iconic canvas sneakers, let's start with the fact that Vice President Kamala Harris is a Converse devotee. The timeless Chuck Taylor sneakers have remained a sartorial staple, remaining relevant for over a century since their inception in 1917. Go ahead and rough 'em up—these high or low-top styles look better worn-in and scuffed. They are iconic shoes for every age and era.

Best Platform Snaekers

Løci Apex Sneakers

Apex Sneakers
Why We Love It
  • Made with bio-based materials from naturally renewable sources
  • Cork insoles offer lightweight support
What to Consider
  • Pricey

Handcrafted from vegan bio leather outside and recycled materials inside, sustainable sneaker brand Løci should be on your radar. Custom cushy cork insoles provide added support for all-day wear that's just as comfortable as attractive. We also love the sizable platform that elongates your silhouette while adding grip and traction. Does your sizing run on the smaller or larger end of the spectrum? You may want to look elsewhere as Løci's size run only goes from 6 to 10.

Don't say we didn't warn you. Once you experience Ryka's insane level of support and comfort, returning to your other footwear may become nearly impossible. If you don't take our word for it, just look at their fancy trademarks for nearly every part of the shoe. There's shock-absorbing cushioning, a top-of-the-line anatomical insole, and a dual-layer rubber sole for grip.
