Sneaky Sneakers

In the latest issue of Lucky, we're told that we should be buying high top sneakers:

Thanks, but no thanks.

But I do love a good pair of casual sneakers. Unlike my trusty running shoes, these sneakers are more at home in the mall than on the treadmill. Dress 'em up or dress 'em down - they're always cute. Here are a few pair I've got my eye on:

Onitsuka Tiger by Asics, Puma, Asics, Saucony

Top:
Saucony Bullet Sneaker, $49.95
Asics Gel-Fieri, $49.95

Middle:
Converse Nylon Trainer, $45
Converse Chuck Taylor, $39.95
Puma Lanai SS, $42

Bottom:
Puma Cabana Racer, $49.95
Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66, $39.90

  1. Ha! I almost bought dunks a few months back, but my sister kept giving me that "really?" look. I still rock my etnies and converse though.

  2. Seriously -- high tops? Does Lucky have a contingent of 14-year-old readers I'm unaware of? Get real. I'm all in favor of casual sneakers though -- even more so since I became a mom! I have never been a fan of the Chuck Taylors -- for girls, anyway. I tried them on in pink when I was in the 8th grade, determined to get a pair like the coolest tomboy in our class was wearing -- and they just looked hideous on my feet. I have never gone near them since -- ha ha! I have that Cabana Racer in green and purple, I think.
