Sneakers are the shoe to own in 2023, with the global market of this footwear expected to grow to $196 billion by 2023. Far from being the exclusive domain of sporty types, sneakers are now the perfect complement to street ensembles, as well as evening wear and suits.

As 2022 comes to a close, you may be thinking of enriching your wardrobe with a new sneaker. The following trends are expected to hit big in 2023, so they may inspire your upcoming purchase.

Retro Styles

Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, and Sydney Sweeney all have one thing in common when it comes to style: a passion for retro sneakers like the Adidas Samba or Gazelle, the Nike Cortez Basic (whose first advertisement featured Farrah Fawcett in 1977), Reebok Club  85 Vintage, and Converse’s Chuck Taylors. One quality that marks all these designs is their simplicity. Not only do they look great with jeans or skirts, but they are easy to keep pristine as most of these sneakers can be machine washed. The key to doing so is gently scrubbing them then placing them in a net bag in the washing machine, on a gentle, cold cycle.

Sneakers in Living Color

Colorful sneakers will be all the rage in early 2023, with brands like Stella McCartney working alongside Adidas to create shoes like Solaglide—a lace-up running shoe graced with vivid designs in green, yellow, and orange. Another popular shoe for those more into fluorescent green blended with pink and pastel orange is the X Asics Gel-1130 sneaker, graced with hot pink and black laces. Indeed, if you’re into running, then getting yourself a pair of Asics (recently worn by Justin Bieber) is a must if performance and style are equally important to you.

Chunky Runners

Just a couple of years ago, you might be teased for your street style if you wore chunky runners. The opposite is true in current days, with Salomon, Hoka, Asics, Nike, and Adidas all designing gorgeous ‘in your face’ sneakers that are a key component of a stylish outfit. For a great example of how to rock this look, check out Salomon’s Trail Running line, which embraces the foot while also packing plenty of punch in the looks department. 

Sneakers are a key component of any modern fashionista’s wardrobe. Three trends to watch out for are retro styles, bright designs, and chunky running shoes. It’s a great time to combine sporting performance with cutting-edge looks that are set to turn heads during training sessions and social situations alike.
