For years, I was all about style before comfort. Following a spine injury, I've been learning to lean into comfort. As a casual-shoe lover, I've been on the hunt for a pair of sneakers that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also comfortable while ideally providing ample arch support.

To my surprise, I uncovered a range of comfortable sneaker options for every kind of fashion person. From ultra-trendy styles that are reminiscent of fun, high-fashion moments to comfy picks from everyday brands you're probably familiar with, I've handpicked good-looking kicks suitable for a variety of tastes. They're backed by our editors and customer reviews. Ahead, click through to discover your next go-to comfortable sneaker style.

1. Adidas Samba Sneakers

The sneakers still on everyone's minds? Adidas Sambas. The soccer shoes hit viral status in the past few years and have shown no sight of slowing down. A black or white pair is a classic choice, but fashion folk have been all over statement ones like the metallic and leopard-printed versions. They're also comfortable, which can be seen by the 3.5kReplica Store reviews of the sneakers and near 5-star rating. Reviewers love the versatility of the shoes and recommend buying half a size up since they run a bit narrow.

2. Asics GT-2160 Sneakers

The fashion crowd never shies away from a controversial shoe trend, and in the past year, there's been an uptick in "ugly" sneakers like Asics. Like New Balance, Asics was popular due to its comfort but now has been rebranded as the current fashion must-have.

3. New Balance 574 Sneakers

New Balance has a large variety of sneakers and collabs, but the classic 574 style is a top pick. After wearing them to walk over 10k steps in NYC, I can confirm their immense comfortability. Customer reviews can also back me up—one reviewer compared it to "walking on clouds."

4. Nike LD-1000 Sneakers

This '77-inspired silhouette offers a nostalgic touch to your current outfits without compromising on comfort. Because of the round toes, reviewers do recommend going up half a size.

5. Asics Gel-1130 Sneakers

Another popular and comfortable style of Asics is the Gel-1130. It's a lifestyle-meets-running shoe that features the brand's signature GEL technology for cushioning and support. Style it with leggings and a sports bra for active moments, and with baggy trousers and a tee for casual ones.

6. New Balance 530 Sneakers

There was a time when you couldn't find an in-stock pair of New Balance 530s even if you tried. They may not be the It sneakers of the moment, but their style power sees no decline inBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing 's book.

7. Reebok Club C Sneakers

I still remember buying my first pair of Reebok Club C sneakers when I was an intern atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , and they feel just as cool as they did a few years ago. They go with any outfit and have that vintage look that everyone wants in their sneakers currently.

8. Salomon XT-6 Sneakers

Not many hiking or trail running shoes are favored by the fashion set, but Salomon's XT-6 sneakers are the exception. They entered the fashion scene two years ago and have been highly sought after by stylish dressers ever since. They're appreciated for their outdoorsy appeal, thick sole, drawstring toggle closure, and range of striking colorways.

9. Puma Speedcat Sneakers

No matter what city you live in, you've likely spotted at least two individuals sporting Puma's Speedcat sneakers—and it's easy to see why. These stylish sneakers feature a sought-after retro aesthetic that sets them apart, but what many may not realize is their unparalleled comfort. Originally designed as driving shoes, they provide excellent traction and are lightweight, ensuring a spring in your step. If you need further persuasion, know that chic celebrities like Dua Lipa, Emrata, and Jennifer Lawrence regularly wear them.

10. Loewe Flow Sneakers

Loewe makes some of the best statement shoes (its rose and nail polish heels won't leave my brain), but its sneakers make for a great investment. In collaboration with On, these performance sneakers offer a retro flair while still featuring minimal details.
