Alexander McQueen
Alexander McQueen’s oversized white sneaker has been a sneaker head-turner for several seasons.

Burberry’s latest white sneaker drop incorporates design elements from the boot with a polished overshoe inspired by rain boots. Crafted in techy nylon and luxurious suede, the all-white hybrid sneaker comes finished with trench coat maker’s iconic check on the tread; the chunky tractor sole showing that the chunky white sneaker is still on trend.

Oozing a timeless silhouette, Salvatore Ferragamo’s low-cut Gancini white sneaker is classic enough to go with anything. Made from calfskin and suede, the streamline sneaker walks with an Italian elegance, effortlessly elevating a comfortable casual look or a more debonair soiree get-up (yes, you can wear these with tailoring).

Louis Vuitton
80’s sneaker fans, rejoice. Louis Vuitton’s hi-top Rivoli sneaker returns this season in grained calf leather, embossed with the Parisian’s iconic monogram pattern. But there’s a Back To the Future twist. The sneaker’s metallic calf leather trim and signed velcro strap design proving worthy of hero Marty McFly and, of course, his style fans.
