The fashion world loves to mix and match: we have skirts, tank tops, and even leggings. The latest to enter the lexicon and dominate the trend cycle are sneakers. Spring’s It shoes are part sneaker, part ballet flat, blending a casual sneaker silhouette with the sophisticated appeal of a classic flat. It’s easy to see why this hybrid is catching on: Sneakers are good-looking and comfortable without being too serious. They’re durable, less expensive, and generally easier to wear than ballet flats, but more stylish than bulky dad shoes.

The fashion world has begun to embrace the looks seen on the runways, especially Dries Van Noten and Prada, with spring 2026’s colorful satin and embellished styles pushing the silhouette further into the spotlight. Sports brands are also getting involved, with Adidas’ popular kickboxing shoes and Puma’s Speedcat Ballet Venus shoes repeatedly selling out.
