While sneakers have been getting their fair share of love, there's one from the bunch that has always been a shoe-rotation regular, it's the white sneaker. From high-topped dunks to performance trainers in luxe materials (leather kicks!), the fresh and clean, rubber-soled shoe is one of the most enduring trends to date.
Wearing white sneaks right out of the box might feel like you're really living on the edge, but a pristine pair is an impossible dream. Besides, any good sneaker will look way better scuffed up with story to tell. Click through to see the cutest white shoes of the season that are meant to be worn in.
These clean kicks are just asking to go on a hike on their first day of wear.
