Over the last several years, we’ve seen sneaker trends soar in popularity ranging from "dad” styles and utilitarian gorpcore shoes to retro designs reminiscent of the ‘80s and clean, minimal white variations. The latest trend to land in the closets of the fashion set, though, are luxe, suede sneakers that add a "rich" vibe to their wardrobes.
New Balance, in particular, is driving the most in-demand pairs on the market right now, in no small part due to the Miu Miu collaboration designs that are selling out in record time. Suede styles are also picking up steam with other brands, including Puma and Adidas, with styles including the Speedcat and Sambas continuing to land on the sell-out list.
Whether you’re styling them with other "rich"-coded wardrobe items or adding them to elevate a casual look, there’s a place for them in your outfits for this season and well into 2025. Ahead, shop the suede sneaker trend with an edit of the best styles on the market.
