Welcome to the cool-sneaker renaissance. Even though fall is always associated with the arrival of boots, flats, and loafers, it’s set to be the season of the sneaker. Everywhere we look, fashion people are glossing over more quintessential autumnal shoes for one of the many fresh pairs that are emerging right now. The most exciting styles of the moment are coming from heritage sportswear brands like Puma but also from more unlikely fashion labels including Tory Burch and ALO, who are putting their own forward spin on fall sneakers.
With so many new styles launching into the market, sneakers have never looked better, and even if you don’t consider yourself a big sneaker person, there’s a good chance you’ll be influenced to add a pair into your outfit rotation this season. At least, all the fashion people with good taste will be doing so—specifically, the exact six pairs below. These are the sneakers that you’ll see on every block from L.A. to NYC and in your feed on key tastemakers. Discover and shop them each here.
ALO Sunset Sneakers
It takes a pair that is especially buzzy to bump traditional sportswear labels down the list of sneaker sources, but right now, ALO has become the number one place to buy sneakers, and it’s all thanks to its new Sunset style, a retro, slim-soled pair finished in suede that we’ve already spotted on Elsa Hosk and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
