Best White Sneakers For Men
Air Jordan 1 Retro Low '85 OG ‘Neutral Grey'
The Air Jordan 1 could be the most recognizable silhouette in all of sneaker culture and its combination of wearability and simplicity has made it a favorite for basketball players, skateboarders, and anyone looking to get a fresh fit off. The low-cut version of the OG '85 silhouette is a perfect shoe for the summer and with the pre-weathered outsole, these can instantly become a go-to in your rotation. The clean white leather base is accented by a neutral grey Nike Swoosh and the same along the heel tab. These wear perfectly with shorts or pants and can be dressed down or even dressed up.
adidas Samba OG ‘Double White Gum'
The adidas Samba had a massive moment in 2023 and it seems as though its popularity is carrying over into Summer 2024. With the emergence of “bloke core” and indoor soccer shoes becoming popular again, the adidas Samba has risen through the ranks as a favorite model for sneakerheads. Their narrow and simple design is a new deviation away from the recent trend of chunky sneakers. This Samba takes an all white upper and adds warm grey to the toe cap. The outsole is a dark brown gum for maximum traction and it features a blue logo tag on the tongue for contrast. The silver Samba lettering is a great final touch and these make for an extremely wearable shoe for the warm months.
Nike Air Force 1 '07 ‘White Gum Light Brown'
Our list wouldn't be complete without a clean, all-white pair of Nike Air Force 1s. They're notorious across all walks of life, have been featured in countless rap songs, and can be seen worn by people as young as seven and old as seventy. The classic silhouette features an all-white leather upper that withstands all conditions of weather. The iconic chunky AIR midsole is also seen in white, but these AF1s are unique with their gum bottoms, offering a great contrast against the white base. Usually fitted with an all-white outsole, this ‘White Gum Light Brown' pair will stand out among other pairs as you rock these in the sun.
Asics Gel-Kayano 14 Y2K ‘Birch Dark Pewter'
The running shoes of the early 2000's are also having their moment in the limelight and after years of sneakerheads straying away from brands like Asics and New Balance, the classic styles are emerging once again as popular fashion choices. Asics has their own unique take on running shoes that combines a plethora of materials such as mesh, plastic, leather, and gel to create a truly one-of-a-kind sneaker. This Asics Gel-Kayano will feature the classic gel cushioning along a cream midsole. The uppers will feature the Asics logo in Birch and the shoe is accented by shimmering pewter leather along the uppers. These are extremely versatile in terms of their functionality and can be used to run, walk, and play volleyball, among other things. These are a perfect option if you're looking to stay fresh while staying active.
Puma Liga Leather Shoe Beige
Puma enters the sneaker conversation as an establish player in the soccer world, but they've recently undergone a rebrand and have gravitated more towards their signature basketball lines and sneakers for lifestyle purposes. The Puma Liga is a solid mixture of both as it combines a simple classic upper with a flat gum bottom. The uppers are made from premium beige leather and offer a more dressed-up look from some of the other athletic sneakers on this list. The low-profile silhouette is simple enough for anyone to rock, but has enough flair with its mixture of materials to stand-out as a great everyday lifestyle choice.
Nike Air Max 97 ‘Triple White'
The final shoes on this list are none other than the classic Nike Air Max 97. The first shoe ever to feature a revolutionary full-length air unit from Nike, the Air Max 97 provides unrivaled comfort and bounce, making it one of the most worn Air Max models by sneakerheads to this day. This pair is donned in triple white, which means all main aspects of the shoe are monochromatic. The air unit features more of a transparent clear color while the small Nike Swoosh is stitched in silver. By all other accounts, shoes don't get much cleaner than these and they're a must-have staple in any aficionado's closet.
We also couldn't forget about the ladies, so follow to take a look at our best white sneakers for women in Summer 2024.

(WMNS) Nike Blazer Mid 77 Vintage ‘White Black'
The iconic Nike Blazer from 1977 has come re-tooled over the last couple of years and now features “vintage” editions that mimic the classic silhouettes from when these first came out. They're seen a big spike in popularity across men's and women's fashion, but these are a particularly good option for the ladies as they offer a high-top sneaker with a minimalist design and subtle branding. The shoes are white leather with grey sueded panels along the toe. They feature an oversized black Nike Swoosh and black Nike lettering across the heel. The vintage look is exemplified by the deconstructed foam tongue and the flat treaded outsoles. This White/Black colorway is perfect to hit the streets with in any outfit.

This Air Jordan 4 Retro comes in a women's exclusive colorway and features eye-popping hits of metallic gold over a clean sail base.

This colorway is great for any occasion and while they're not your typical shade of white, these provide a great hue to anyone trying to expand their color palette.
Nike Air Force 1 Low '07 ‘Triple White'
Yes, we're back again with another Air Force 1 Low '07, but this time in the default triple white colorway. The Air Force 1 is perfect for anyone, but the same rule applies: You always have to keep a clean, fresh pair on deck. There's nothing worse than a trashed pair of Air Force 1s, so a brand new triple white pair should be on everyone's shipping list. The completely white shoe is complemented by the AF1 silver lace lock and these won't be going out of style any time soon, so find your size and stock up for those upcoming Summer parties in the sun.
Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 ‘White'
Onitsuka Tiger is a Japanese sports fashion brand first founded in 1949, later becoming a part of Asics Corporation in 1977. Since, Onitsuka has become a lifestyle brand under Asics and provides a minimalist derivative from their high-tech running shoes. The Mexico 66 series is a low-profile silhouette with thinly-layered materials and a simple, yet effective design. The shoe is accented by suede hits of warm grey and feature a grey outsole. Otherwise, the shoe is a perfect white option and this particular model has seen great traction in women's fashion as of late. These are great to wear for the summer as they're lightweight, breathable, and match with just about anything.
New Balance 530 ‘Beige Angora'
The “dad shoe” trend may never be going away and New Balance can be thanked for that as they have been outfitting dads in Ohio and supermodels in London since 1906. Their timeless designs are met by constant innovation and they're constantly pushing the envelope in terms of fresh designs, always bringing the highest quality of materials and craftsmanship to their footwear. This New Balance 530 model is a perfectly exaggerated “dad shoe” with a modern design and tooling. The “Beige Angora” colorway presents a soft option with endless wearability. New Balance also offers some of the most comfortable shoes on the market and these will have you ready to encounter any terrain this summer.
(WMNS) Nike Dunk Low ‘Just Do It – White Iridescent'
The Nike Dunk Low has taken its position alongside the Air Force 1 in terms of popularity and offers a nice switch in pace with its more subtle construction and detailing. The Dunk Low is serves well for basketball or skateboarding, but its perfect as a lifestyle sneaker and the silhouette goes with just about anything. This all-white colorway is a simple example of such, but a closer look reveals the iridescent hues popping from the Nike Swoosh and alternating leather panels. In the sun, these will change colors and shine differently from various angles, so be sure to cop a pair and stay shining all summer.
(WMNS) adidas Stan Smith Bonega Shoes ‘White Green'
The final shoe on our list is a another favorite in women's fashion with the classic adidas Stan Smith sneakers. The low-profile minimal shoes feature the most subtle branding from adidas and have the iconic perforated holes in place of the three-stripes along the uppers. This pair features a primary white leather base with small hits of green and Stan Smith's logo in gold. The hallmark feature is the oversized chunky midsole which adds a few inches of height and they're a unique take on an already recognizable model.
