I'd Normally Ignore Designer Sneakers, But This One Pair Has Been Trending and Selling Out Repeatedly for Almost 2 Years
After debating investing in Miu Miu X New Balance 530 trainers, I've finally decided to give in to the hype. Scroll down to see why and shop the trainers yourself.


When it comes to fashion, I believe some items are just worth the investment.
From handbags to outerwear, there are particular instances where the high-quality craftspersonship makes splashing that extra cash worth it. Trainers, however, don't usually come under this umbrella for me. In fact, the high street has so many expensive-looking styles that designer options rarely catch my attention. However, two years down the line, one particular trainer style has proven itself to stand the test of time and be well worth its higher price tag. I'm talking about Miu Miu X New Balance 530 trainers.
What makes these trainers so popular? Well, unlike other luxury brand collabs that lean into trendy silhouettes, Miu Miu's take on the iconic New Balance 530 is sleek and subtle with just the right amount of edge, creating the perfect balance (no pun intended) between classic and modern. The trainer manages to stay true to New Balance's retro, sporty-dad style, but with the unmistakably Miu Miu aesthetic we all know and love. The result? Buttery-soft suedes, distressed seams and muted but contrasting hues.
I'm certainly not the only one still talking about these trainers. Spotted on a number of celebrities and influencers over the past two years, Miu Miu X New Balance 530s have become somewhat of a staple amongst fashion people. Most recently, we saw them on actor Joey King, who paired hers with a maxi dress, oversized coat and baseball cap for a chic off-duty look.
However, we've also spotted these sleek sneakers styled effortlessly with shorts, jeans, dresses and skirts, proving their versatility. Personally, I'm particularly interested in the white SL Suede and Mesh Sneakers (£850) as a pair I can wear with my white midi dresses and poplin skirts now, as well as well into autumn and winter to help brighten up the darker colour palette I typically opt for.
Thanks to their cult status, Miu Miu X New Balance 530s have become highly sought-after designer trainers, consistently selling out as soon as they're back in stock. But the good news is that Miu Miu and New Balance are continuing their collaboration, so if you're struggling to find your size or preferred style, rest assured that new stock is likely on its way.
If, like me, you've decided to give in to the hype, keep scrolling to shop Miu Miu X New Balance 530s and then browse the other Miu Miu trainers I love. I promise you won't regret any of them.
