There's really no wrong time of year to dabble in a new sneakers, but I'd argue that fall is just begging for a pair. I'm always here for fashion that's unapologetically practical—particularly when it comes to footwear because I live in New York and inevitably walk a million steps a day. Really, I'm not trying to recapture the pre-pandemic magic of stealthily swapping out my shoes under a desk.
Yes, designer sneakers can be a good time, but today is about three of the go-to brands we tend to shop from again and again: Adidas, Nike, and New Balance. Whether you have good sneakers you exclusively wear with tailoring or you just like to look like you've been paying attention when you're walking your dog, I've got you. This curation of sneakers is designed to elevate your fall wardrobe in the most low-key way possible, and nothing is over $250.
