Summer is without a shadow of a doubt, the best time to be a sneakerhead. Us footwear fans spend years building the perfect collection, however here in the UK it’s rare that the weather is good enough all-year-round to rock our favourite kicks. The few summer months we do get where the sun is brave enough to show its face are the ideal time to rock the sneakers you’ve been stashing for a sunny day. If you’re new to collection sneakers then you might be looking for inspiration on how to level up your collection, and that’s exactly where we come in.
Here at Crepslocker we’ve been sneaker fans for many years, so we know exactly how to build the perfect footwear rotation with ease. Today we’re looking at the greatest summer sneakers of all time, so if the weather is looking bright for the next few weeks then you’re going to want to put a few of these onto your cop list!
Air Jordan 4 Retro "White Oreo"
While the Air Jordan 4 is a solid choice all-year-round, it’s worth noting that the 1989 classic looks better than ever decked out in the “White Oreo” colourway. Crafted from supple leather, these are kicks that are most definitely best kept for a sunny day. Finished with a subtle speckle effect across the midsole, do AJ4s get much better? Pair these with cargo pants and a graphic tee for an instant streetwear winner.
Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Beluga"
Kanye West’s partnership with adidas may have come to an end, but his work with the German sportswear brand still remains iconic within the sneaker community. One such pair that’s perfect for a summer’s day is the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 “Beluga”. Opting for a neutral-hued colour scheme, the kicks are accentuated with red pops of colour and “SPLY-350” branding. The lightweight Primeknit upper makes these a comfortable option for even scorching hot days.
Nike Dunk Low "Panda"
Easily one of the most popular sneakers of the last five years, the Nike Dunk Low “Panda” is about as iconic as it gets, and it’s also perfect for the warmer months of the year! Decked out in a black and white arrangement, the kicks have versatility on their side, meaning they’ll work with just about any outfit you can throw at them. Try them with a pair of cargo shorts and an oversized hoodie for the perfect summer’s evening outfit.
On Running Cloudswift
For the new school sneakerheads, how about a pair of On Running Cloudswifts? Hailing from the Swiss brand, these lightweight and versatile runners are ideal for pairing with your gym attire but also work well within a casual ensemble, so what more could you ask for? We’ve opted for a simple black and white colourway here, however there’s plenty of different variations available to suit all different outfit types.
Yeezy Slide "Bone"
Nothing says summer like a pair of slides, so why not upgrade your poolside outfits today with a solid offering from Yeezy? Ever since they first dropped back in 2019, Yeezy Slides have been a popular option with sneakerheads. Thanks to the lightweight design and cushioned footbed, these single-piece EVA foam sliders are ideal for your warm-weather outfits, so why not grab your own pair right here at Crepslocker!
Nike Air Force 1 "Triple White"
You can’t beat a tried and tested classic, and the Nike Air Force 1 has been topping the charts ever since 1982. Designed by Bruce Kilgore, the simple yet effective silhouette offers up everything you need in a great sneaker, along with looks that appear just as clean today as they did over 40 years ago. Of course, we had to include the iconic “Triple White” colourway that’s ideal for the summer months.
Louis Vuitton "LV Skate" Sneaker
If you’re looking to get your luxe on this summer then Louis Vuitton has cooked up the perfect pair of sneakers for you, behold the LV Skate. Inspired by chunky skate sneakers from the early 2000s, these kicks are available in a range of different colourways, however the “White/Grey” rendition seen here seems ideal for a day in the sun.
