      In general, sneakers remain a timeless fashion choice. They are comfortable (or at least they should be), relatively budget-friendly, and can be worn throughout the year—explaining my growing collection. Residing in New York City, where I walk over 10,000 steps daily, I've honed my ability to identify the best new sneaker styles. This year's trends are among my favorites thus far.

      From unique styles like slip-ons and Mary Jane sneakers—yes, you read correctly—to more recognizable shapes resembling Samba silhouettes, this year's sneaker trends cater to all tastes. While retro, slim-fit designs still dominate (shoutout to Adidas’ SL 72 model), they feel fresh and invigorating for spring due to unexpected colors and patterns.

      Below, we highlight 2025’s most popular sneaker trends and six outfit ideas to pair with them this spring.

      1. Suede Sneakers + White Denim

      Suede, typically reserved for the fall and winter months, is getting a refreshing twist for spring when matched with white denim. In my neighborhood (and across my social media), women are elevating this combination with lightweight jackets, silk scarves, and matching suede bags.

      2. Mary Jane Sneakers + Gingham Tanks

      Mary Jane sneakers, one of the season’s more debated trends, have found quick favor among fashion enthusiasts, stirring up opinions among internet users who oppose the hybrid style. However, as with any fashion statement, it’s all about your approach to styling. For warmer days, consider pairing Mary Jane sneakers with soft check patterns and floral prints for a perfectly contrasting look.

      3. Retro Sneakers + Draped Cardigans

      I find comfort in knowing I have a reliable selection of cardigans and an extensive sneaker collection to tackle wardrobe challenges. Each piece is great on its own, but together they create a match made in transitional fashion bliss. Here, jeans and a tee can be instantly elevated with retro sneakers and a cardigan draped casually over the shoulders—a functional layer for the typical spring temperature fluctuations.

      4. Colorful Sneakers + Poplin Pants

      Looking to infuse more color into your spring outfits? Start with your footwear. If you lean toward minimalism, opt for a neutral sneaker with a slight pop of color as shown above; for those with a more maximalist approach, embrace bold colors this season with striking reds or blues. Keep things effortlessly chic by pairing them with relaxed poplin pants in a subtle solid or stripe.

      5. Leopard Print Sneakers + Red Tops

      While they may not always seem like the most practical choice, leopard print sneakers can be styled like a neutral, offering great versatility. My preferred way to wear them? Pairing them with vibrant looks, or in this instance, a colorful ensemble from head to toe.

      6. Sporty Sneakers + Sweat Sets

      Chunky sneakers are still in the mix; however, instead of pairing them with straight-leg jeans as we have in previous years, opt for something more relaxed, like a matching sweat set. Statement layers and accessories, such as a leather jacket and suede bag shown here, are key to transforming this look from loungewear to streetwear.
