- Regardless of your personal style, everyone needs a pair of white sneakers.
- With so many options available, we rounded up the eight best pairs - from classic leather lace-up sneakers to trendy canvas slide-ons.
- If you have to choose only one pair of white sneakers, go with the Adidas Stan Smith. It's classic in style, made of full-grain leather, and affordably priced at $80.
With a seemingly endless number of styles, colors, collaborations, and designs available, sneakers are arguably the best way to express your personality and style through fashion. As someone who owns more than 100 pairs of shoes, I could conceivably wear a different pair to perfectly match every outfit I put together, but white sneakers remain my favorite.
Clean, simple, and easily paired with a majority of clothes found in any wardrobe - simply put, they're a wardrobe staple.
Almost every sneaker in existence has been made in a white colorway, so trying to figure out which one is truly the best can be pretty difficult. And, frankly, what's "best" for you is going to depend on your own set of criteria, like style, comfort, and materials.
I've owned dozens of white sneakers over the years - and yes, I'm wearing a pair now as I write this - so I rounded up eight styles to appeal to a variety of needs.
Whether you're concerned with price, quality, comfort, or timelessness, these are the pairs you'll want to add to your wardrobe. And to help keep your white sneakers fresh, check out these 10 effective shoe cleaners and 7 weatherproofing sprays.
