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.
Saint Laurent SL/61 logo-print leather sneakers
Crafted in Italy from a soft supple leather and all-white colourway, you get what you see with Saint Laurent’s trainers. A perfect everyday option, the sporty-yet-smart design goes with everything from skirts to jeans to even slick tailoring, and is complete with a logo-stamped heel tab for a playful edge.
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.
McQueen Oversized leather sneakers
Who said white trainers need to be flat? McQueen’s chunky, oversized trainers are truly iconic, made with thick rubber soles and featuring metallic crocodile-embossed heel counters. We’re wearing ours with light wash denim, a classic trench coat, and equally striking jewellery. And, of course, oversized sunglasses to match.
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.
Loewe Flow Runner monogram leather and shell trainers
Lace up Loewe’s Flow Runner trainers for chic city strolling. Made from 100 per cent leather and featuring an ‘L’ monogram on its silhouette, we’re big fans of the contrasting coloured sole for a contemporry edge. Fashionable and functional, Loewe’s kicks know what they’re doing.
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.
Christian Louboutin Fun Louise Junior leather sneakers
A classic derby shape with a round toe and designer-stamped heels, you’ll turn to these crisp white trainers time and time again. Comfy and effortlessly chic, wear with your favourtie denim and dresses alike. And of course, it wouldn’t be a Louboutin without its signature red sole.
