Every Fashion Person Owns One of These 29 Sneakers That Are Ideal for Winter

"A sneaker girl never gets cold." Or at least that's what I thought until I had to carefully waddle through the snow in a pair. Some people are lucky to live in more moderate climates than New York City so can show off our regular kicks, but for us East Coasters, a thick pair of socks is required along with special styles. For me, high-tops and shearling-lined sneakers are currently high on the list for their warmth and protection.
Regardless of the weather, there are some It-girl sneakers that are worth wearing no matter the weather. We can't forget that with the ups and downs of winter there are bound to be easier days to walk around with our sneakers on. Every season, I'm interested in buying a new pair, so below find 29 options that I'm seriously considering (and you should too).
Winter is a great time to trade in your white sneakers for an off-white option.
