8 white trainers to freshen up your collection for summer
With summer in full-swing, it's time to freshen up for footwear options
If you don’t own a pair of fresh, clean white trainers, then you’re doing something wrong. While you might be excused throughout the bleaker months to avoid such easily-muddied footwear, if you aren’t sporting a pair in the summer months, then we need to talk.
Owning a pair of white trainers isn’t only the epitome of sartorial summer freshness, it’s also footwear that’s guaranteed to go with any outfit. Whether you’re in a pair of shorts and a plain tee, or even in a full suit, a pair of white trainers will find their place.
Now, as the decent weather finally starts to set in, Mixmag’s here to aid your summer collection. We’ve picked out 8 of the best white trainers available at the moment, for you to spend all your money on.
Reebok Revenge Plus, £69.95
Reebok just loves diving into its archives and for the Revenge Plus it's no different. An '80s tennis-inspired style, these feature a suede and leather upper, with a splash of contrast colour on the side stripes to add to the street-smart vibe. A classic trainer that will never die.
adidas Supercourt, £74.95
Coming as a part of the Home of Classics collection, the adidas Supercourts were the hero silhouette of the collection. Crafted without contrast colour, they feature a triple-white palette and a chunky, retro sole.
Novesta ITOH white, €149.00
Known mostly for their Star Master silhouette (and their products being vegan friendly) Novesta's ITOH is the brand's lesser-known trainer that more people should know about. A neat leather upper, with an off-white natural rubber sole make these a lightweight leather option this summer.
Clarks Originals Seven, £120.00
Casual shoes from Clarks Originals offer maximum comfort and movement, all the while utilising knowledge from their extensive archives. These Sevens feature a full moccasin construction made from unlined white suede for superior barefoot comfort, meaning: no socks.
Common Projects B-Ball Low, £280.00
Luxury style with an athletic frame of mind, add the B-Ball low top to your ensemble for a boost of contemporary minimalism. Made in Italy, Common Projects are experts in ensuring that their sneakers combine the very best of casual and formal silhouettes to create a versatile and beautiful sensibility.
Prévu White Leather Signature, £170.00
Designed in their East London studio, Prévu's debut footwear collection is simple, but very stylish. Made from Italian leather, the upper features suede panelling across the toe box, yet the lightweight material makes these breathable - perfect to counter sweaty summer feet.
Nike Air Max 720, £154.95
An icon in the trainer game, Nike's Air Max is one of the most well-known trainers around. The 720 goes bigger than ever before with Nike's tallest Air unit yet, offering more air underfoot for unprecedented, all-day comfort.
Grenson White Leather, £160.00
After making shoes for a century and a half, Grenson have decided to launch a selection of trainers. This particular pair is based on a super clean '70s tennis shoe and crafted from luxury cow leather in a brilliant white, they have a lovely retro vibe.
