Even in summer, the look remains comfortable thanks to trendy sneakers. STYLBEOOK reveals which styles are in vogue this year.

Sneakers are an absolute must-have all year round. Sure, sandals, slides, and the like let your feet breathe in the summer–but nothing beats a pair of stylish sneakers that are also comfortable. This summer 2025, we can look forward to lots of color and, above all, new styles!

Sneaker Ballerina

Some love them, others can’t stand them: we’re talking about Sneaker Ballerinas, also known as Sneakerinas. They’re making a comeback this year and are sparking mixed opinions. While some find the shoes the perfect combination of comfort and summer lightness, others can’t reconcile Sneaker Ballerinas with their sense of style. Either way, the model is absolutely in vogue this summer. Particularly popular is the Speedcat Ballerina from Puma, as well as versions from Adidas and others.

Metallic Look

Just like in spring, our feet will shine in metallic hues this summer. Sneakers with a metallic look are all the rage and are a must-have for summer 2025. Especially trendy are chunky sneakers with fine metallic stripes in silver. If that’s not enough, you can opt for the all-over look and choose a shoe that comes entirely in metallic.

Bright Colors

While spring usually features softer colors, now it’s time for the full blast. Sneakers in summer 2025 are vibrant–styles in bold red, green, and yellow are indispensable and become the highlight of any outfit. If you don’t want to focus too much on the shoes, you can opt for softer tones like pink. It’s especially stylish when you choose a version combined with red or green.

Dad Sneakers

We just can’t get rid of them! Dad sneakers are sticking around this summer, and that’s a good thing. The chunky shoe fits perfectly with our Pilates-girl look or just casually with shorts and a top. If the white look is too boring for you, choose a version with a print; sneakers with leopard patterns are particularly popular. And the best part is: with dad sneakers, you can’t go wrong in terms of comfort!

Creamy Brown

“Mocha Mousse” is the Pantone trend color of the year 2025–and this is reflected in sneaker styles this summer. The soft brown tone is the ideal choice if the shoe doesn’t need to be the focal point but is no less stylish. The brown pairs perfectly with zesty lemon yellow or delicate pink.
