Tennis shoes and sneakers are wardrobe staples, and with the changing seasons, it’s always exciting to update them. This season’s trend leans heavily on retro aesthetics, bringing back the ’70s varsity-inspired runners like the New Balance heritage series and the minimalist court shoes of the ’90s, exemplified by The Row and Common Projects.
The latest designs beautifully blend nostalgic charm with contemporary sleekness. Whether you gravitate towards suede low-tops from Maison Margiela or the elevated running shoes by Asics, they offer a fresh perspective on sporty style. The US Open buzz has fueled our desire for clean, classic sneakers that go beyond the court. Think Saint Laurent’s minimalist white sneakers or the bold, contrasting stripes of the Onitsuka.
Perfect for fall and beyond, designers are reinterpreting heritage silhouettes, enhancing them with modern details like tonal suedes, crisp leather, and subtle pops of color, as seen in Adidas x Wales Bonner and Acne Studios collections. These shoes effortlessly transition from day to night, whether you’re heading to the gym, a gallery, grabbing coffee, or taking a weekend stroll.
