I spent 2 months in europe taking sneaky zoomed in photos of all the sneakers the cool girls were wearing. With Google Lens as my guide I have compiled them into this list for you!

Lesser known brands to put on your radar
Adidas
The gum sole and extra stitching on these is so good
Clot Gazelle Shoes by Edison Chen
The BEADING! Are you kidding me? Basic white but with an extra fun twist
Sambae Shoes
The SL 72s are going to be the next it shoe and remember that you heard it from me first please! The cow print is amazing but honestly this style in any color is giving “I'm cooler than you”
Cow Print SL 72 OG Shoes
Set up an account and Adidas will send you an email when these restock in your size. Highly recommend doing that for the popular styles like this that sell out quickly
SL 72 OG Shoes
The Handballs are slightly less oversaturated than the Sambas which I think makes them 10x cooler. The brown and the blue color combo is everything
Handball Spezial Shoes
The Tokyos are only for the coolest of cool girls so if thats not you look away. But if that is you, you know how good these are
Tokyo Shoes
The red fabric on these adds fantastic texture. pop up red is a style trend I don't see going anywhere anytime soon
Gazelle Indoor Shoes
These are not going to be everyones cup of tea but styled right there are such a statement
Samba Jane Shoes
The silhouette of these plus the snakeskin is so chic. Where most sneakers dress down an outfit these would dress them up
Japan Shoes
The stitching on the toe of these really levels them up imo. Love the shape
Taekwondo Lace Shoes
These were all OVER Europe when I was there this fall and you know the eu girlies are always ahead of the curve on the sneaker trends.
Taekwondo Shoes
Nike
The Cortez are a classic for a reason and Nike is doing some fun color and textures in them that scream cool
Nike Cortez Textile Shoes
Perfect run around to do errands type of shoes
Nike V2K Run Women's Shoes with Reflective Accents
