You Won’t Believe What Color Sneakers People Are Rocking Right Now

* Purple sneakers are emerging as a footwear trend in 2019
* Not all sneakers look good in purple
* Our favorites from Converse, Reebok and more

Recently, fashion’s hottest designer, Virgil Abloh, premiered his second line of men’s clothing for Louis Vuitton. One stand out piece? purple sneakers.

It might come as a shock if you’ve been wearing white sneakers for a while now, but we think it’s a trend worth trying in spring 2019. Check out some stylish purple sneakers for men and women below.

FOR WOMEN:

1. New Balance Classics

These New Balances work for running a marathon or just running errands. They feature a no-frills athletic, and we think it’s just simple enough to rock a purple color.

2. Reebok Lifestyle Classic Leather

Reebok’s classic leather trainers have become a huge throwback trend over the past year, and their chunky look makes them a great purchase for 2019. This lilac color makes them a little more unique, which is a necessity in a sea of white leather shoes.

3. Under Armour Speedform Gemini

Another great athletic shoe that comes in purple is the Under Armour Speedform. They have a concrete-ready build that keeps you comfortable while jogging (or strolling) through the streets.

FOR MEN:

4. Onitsuka Tiger by Asics GSM

Onitsuka Tiger is a Japanese brand that many stylish footwear lovers are rocking stateside right now. They’re inexpensive, unique and they look great in this grape colorway.

5. PUMA Suede Classic

You can’t go wrong with Puma classics – especially when 80s nostalgia is at an all-time high. Maybe leave the giant laces in the 80s though.

6. Converse Skate Jack Purcell Pro

Whether you’re a skater or just a lover of skate style (who isn’t?), these Jack Purcells are a great sneaker option. They have a classic look, a premium suede leather upper, and a high-quality overall construction.
