Ahead, find the top seven sneaker trends for Summer 2019. They're the ones that are about to fill your Instagram feeds, become constantly spotted on the street, and generally consume your every outfit planning thought for the season to come. Happy shopping!

Espadrilles

Marry your favorite summer sandals with your sportiest of footwear this summer by opting for an amalgamation of espadrilles and sneakers. With a sneaker top and woven espadrille base, this sneaker trend is the perfect addition to every look this summer — from jeans to dresses and everything in between.

Pink

From pale tones to bright neons, pink is a huge trend for Summer 2019. Whether you love a slip-on, low-top, platform, or retro high-top, make sure to have at least a pair or two in rotation in an ultrafeminine tone of pink.

Florals

Florals for warmer weather might not be groundbreaking, but they are fairly new to the sneaker game. It's been a while since we've gotten so bold with the patterns on our kicks, but 'tis the season for Summer 2019!

Throwback

For your retro sneakers this Summer, consider going back to the OGs. Instead of opting for high-end designers' reimagined throwbacks, grab a pair from the actual brand who did it first — and, arguably, best.

Slip-Ons

Keep it classic with one of the most classic of sneaker styles. No matter what style, color, or print, slip-ons will quickly become your ultimate throw-on-and-go when it comes to your footwear.

Platforms

Think: 1990s/early-aughts Spice Girls in their sartorial prime. Have a bit of fun with platform sneakers for Summer 2019. They might not be superpractical when it comes to actual athletic activities, but they sure do look cool.

Tie-Dye

Tie-dye is one of the biggest trends of the season and is hitting every corner of our closets — hard. Sneakers are no exception, as brands are more head-turning than ever with their colorful tie-dye creations.
