Nike Blazer Mid '77 Vintage Women's Shoes ($74, originally $105)

Retro clothing is a trend right now, so it's no surprise that our editors love these vintage women's shoes. The classic shoe was originally designed in the late '70s, proving that its unique style will always be fashionable. We love its suede accents and its old-school Nike lettering on the back.

Editor Quote: "I'm a basic millennial at heart and for that reason generally stick to all-white sneakers — especially when I'm traveling (which is often) and want shoes that will go with everything. These Nike Blazers are classic enough that I can pair them with anything in my suitcase or closet (dresses, cargo pants, jeans, you name it) but still feel like I'm at least kind of cool, thanks to the hi-top design. Even better: I've thoroughly destroyed them at concerts and walking on dirt roads, and they always wipe clean." — Lauren Mazzo, Senior Editor, Fitness

Editor Quote: "I'm a white sneaker-lover through and through, but recently, even I've discovered the value in owning a few styles that feature a little bit more color. While my Nike Air Force 1s have been my go-to shoe over the last few years, I decided it was finally time to play around with some more versatile colors in my closet, and fell in love with these New Balance 574 Core Sneakers, in the process.

Vans Classic Slip-On ($83-$120)

Slipping on shoes and heading out the door has never been easier than with these checkered Vans. The shoes are available in a plethora of colorways, but this rainbow one is a favorite of our editors for its LGBTQ+ meaning. The shoes have a padded collar and footbed, making them comfortable to wear all day or night long.

Editor Quote: "My partner initially convinced me of the ease of laceless sneakers, but when I first got my Vans Classic Slip-On shoes in Checkerboard (Rainbow), they were a hassle to get on, not to mention super clunky and heavy on my feet. Since I broke them in, however, I'm in love — there is nothing like rushing out the door with my little one and popping these on in a pinch while juggling her school bags and my Yeti. I also love a chance to show off the colorway in what feels like support for the LGBTQ+ community!" — Cynthia Puleo, Copy Editor

Saucony Jazz Court High Premium Sneaker ($120)

This premium sneaker features a combination of suede and leather that appears and feels so luxe. We enjoy its old-school design and fun colorway. This shoe is a classic that you'll have in your closet for years to come.

Editor Quote: "My go-to sneaker as of late is the Saucony Jazz Court High, which feels like a groovier take on the classic Sk8-Hi Vans I've been wearing for years. My favorite detail is the subtle 'S' stitching on the leather side panel, which I interpret personally as an homage to my initial." — Sarah Wasilak, Senior Editor, Fashion

Nike Air Force 1 '07 Shoes ($115)

The Nike Air Force 1s showcase a simple and timeless look that you can have forever. The sneaker is based on Nike's '80s version of the same shoe, which proves its look is ageless. It's recommended if you're between sizes, go a size down.

Editor Quote: "White sneakers are obviously a shoe staple, but the platform version of these classic Nikes makes them perfect to pair with jeans and a tee or a dress." — Kelsey Kennick, Editorial Operations Manager, Commerce

Cariuma Off-White Canvas Sneakers ($98)

The high-top style of these Cariuma sneakers reminds us of Converse, except with these shoes, two trees are planted for each purchase. The sneakers are available in four color options and have a lightweight design that feels great on the feet. Not to mention, they have a memory insole that molds to the shape of your foot (talk about comfort!)

Editor Quote: "My go-to sneaker is, hands down, Cariuma's off-white high-tops. The shade is a perfect neutral and goes with everything, but it's not so bright white that I'm constantly worried about stains and smudges. The vegan brand, started by two best friends from Brazil, crafts its shoes with bamboo and organic cotton and is extremely upfront about production processes."

Veja 118 Campo Sneaker ($175)

If you want a pair of sneakers that are fancier than your average, these Veja shoes are a great option. We like the style's thick rubber sole, its logo's pop of color, and its clean, sporty appeal. The shoe's ideal for casual work attire or day-to-day activities, like a walk around the block or a trip to the grocery store.

Editor Quote: "I'm a big fan of my Veja Campo Chromefree Leather White Petale sneakers. They're sleek, sustainable sneakers that I can wear with any outfit — including fancier dresses and trousers. And as someone who's very dedicated to keeping their white sneakers clean, they're also easy to take care of." — Yerin Kim, Editor, Trending
