These are the fashion trainers all the it-girls are wearing in 2025

It’s not often you find kicks with sustainability and street creds. But that’s why we love Vejas; they’re just as goodlooking as they are mindful.

Seen on the feet of many a celeb and TikTok girlie, there’s no denying the Mexico 66s from Onitsuka Tiger are having a major moment. Wear yours with a denim maxi skirt, micro-shorts or any bottom, really – they all work. Now, to pick our colour...

This killer collab are the perfect mash-up of marshmallow-hued sweetness and astro-urban grit. The price is steep but we’re happy to admire from a distance.

If you're more a ballet flats kind of gal but fancy some seriously stylish kicks then consider one of the fashion world's greatest innovations – the sneakerina. Made from recycled fabric, this ultra-comfy design from Vivaia is completely machine washable so you'll always look fresh.

After missing out on the Adidas x Wales Bonner and Cecilie Bahnsen x Asics silver sneakers, we refuse to let these dad trainers get away. And yes, they've been designed to look worn in.

Cow print might be having a moment, but we're still loving our leopard print, too. These Adidas kicks are the perfect subtle nod to the perennially cool big cat pattern.

Listen up, dopamine dressers: appaz cobalt is going to be big this summer. Don't fancy dripping in blue? Add a pop of colour through your footwear instead.

Spotted on the likes of Em Rata, Alexandria Daddario and Meghan Sussex, Veja trainers have been taking the street style world by storm since they blew up in 2022. This pair will look just as cute for a coffee date as they will on a hot girl walk around the park.

If we weren’t already obsessed with looks alone, the name of these sweet sneakers defo has us gagged. Pumpkin Pie Pinktastic? Don’t mind if we have a slice.

Gazelles are the other equally quick-selling Adidas must-haves. The indoor styles are known for their incredible colourways (hello, pink, purple & black), so if you’re lucky (and fast), you can walk away with some real gems.

You can't beat a pair of New Balance when it comes to classic fashion trainers. This pair is case in point.

Last year, the FP Movement x On collab was a big hit with team Cosmo. While they're now sold out, like, everywhere, these beaut sneaks are a nice alternative. We know, we know they aren't technically fashion trainers–you could totally run a marathon in ‘em if your heart desired–but are too pretty to be reserved for sweaty cross-country sessions only.

These new-release fluoro green New Balances are our Fashion Editor’s top pick for a fresh new szn trainer. She says, “I’ll be pairing these with black jeans, pinstripe blazers, performance fleece pullovers and plenty of silver jewellery.” Psst – they are a unisex style, so be sure to click on the size chart to make sure you’ve grabbed the right pair before checking out.

Sometimes a runner’s good looks say it all – no explanation necessary.

Add a touch of retro running energy to your trainer rotation with this Saucony style. We love the metallic gold detailing.

The ugly dad shoe has had a makeover and is now cute AF. Elevate your chunky soles with the addition of ASICS' FF BLAST PLUS ECO technology and Scutoid GEL cushioning that promise an ultra-smooth ride.

Brown is *huge* fashion trend RN and we're loving the hue head-to-toe, courtesy of these adidas SL 72s. We can confirm the '70s inspired silhouette is super comfy, too.

A mash-up of Pegasus sneakers past, the Nike P-6000 takes early 2000s running style to modern heights. The foam cushioning adds a lifted, athletics-inspired stance and unbelievable cushioning – it's the perfect mix of head-turning looks and comfort.
