When it comes to top-notch sneaker styles, there’s one key silhouette that continues to reign supreme. Yep, classic white kicks.

Naturally, this is the reason why fashion people will continue to wear them on repeat. Yep, myself included. I’ve actually had at least one pair of white sneakers in my rotation for the last (at least) seven years. And I will continue to wear them. To note, my favorites right now are from Nike, Common Projects, Adidas, and Golden Goose.

I also thought some outfit inspiration could be of interest, so I’m showcasing how fashion people are styling white sneakers now. Keep scrolling for more.
