The terms ‘classic’ and ‘timeless’ get thrown around a lot in the fashion world. In reality, however, there are few items they really apply to: a little black dress, a trench coat, a navy blazer and, of course, white trainers. Whether you’re opting for something low profile and minimalist or are tempted to try the trend for so-ugly-they’re-good dad sneakers, white trainers are the perfect way to put a casual spin on tailoring, a sporty twist on a floaty dress or simply pair with your favourite jeans for an effortless outfit. Here’s our guide to the best white trainers for women.
Chloé Nama runner sneakers

Crafted in Italy with a sweet scalloped edge and monogram heel tabs, Chloé’s white Nama trainers with tonal top-stitching are a striking everyday option. Renowned for its on-point accessories, the B Corp-certified brand has knocked it out of the park with these sporty-yet-smart leather trainers.
Lacoste Powercourt trainers

Harking back to Lacoste’s rich tennis heritage, these simple trainers wouldn’t look amiss on the court – but also boast an abundance of streetwear potential. This season, the clean-lined design has been crafted from fresh white leather embellished with gold-tone metallic detailing. This is the definition of simple elegance.
Gucci GG-embossed trainers

Former creative director Alessandro Michele’s retro flair shines through in these GG-embossed perforated leather trainers. We’re wearing ours with dark denim jeans, a simple tee and a classic trench coat.
Veja Campo trainers

Vejas have become a fashion staple and their enduring appeal means we couldn’t leave them out of this edit. The Campo trainers are one of the brand’s best-selling silhouettes, defined by their casual and sleek design, which is reimagined every season in different colourways. For everyday wear, we love this pair with neutral-hued branded accents.
New Balance 550 trainers

Once bemoaned as a brand for dads, New Balance has been having a bit of a moment of late. Favoured by Gen Z style stars and fashion editors alike, these chunky-but-funky 550 trainers in white and grey will upgrade any outfit, whether it’s jeans and a jumper, or a smart suit.
Premiata midquin high-top trainers

In the market for some new high-tops? Opt for these midquin trainers by Italian shoe brand Premiata. Featuring calf leather perforated detailing and a logo-print tongue, we’re big fans of the chunky sole and faded accents.
Balenciaga Track trainers

A favourite of the street style set, these all-white Track sneakers from Balenciaga are the perfect finishing touch to any great outfit. Part-sporty, part-dad and featuring the brand’s signature extra-chunky sole, whether you style them with wide-leg trousers, or a pretty sundress, these are sure to win you major style kudos.
Golden Goose Stardan 10100 trainers

Since launching its cult trainers in 2007, Golden Goose has become a true favourite of the style set, thanks to its hallmark worn-in finish. These all-white Stardan trainers, with gold foil logo detail, are made in Italy from 100 per cent leather.
R.M. Williams Surry sneaker

Paying homage to R.M. Willams’ archival Sand Shoe (first released in 1940), the brand’s leather Surry sneakers feature a modern take on a classic derby shape. Crafted with a round toe, embossed script logo detailing and a comfy padded leather footbed, you’ll turn to these classic white trainers time and time again.
