Fashion month inevitably brings out some notable footwear. But this season, from New York to London to Milan, the fashion set seemed to (almost) unanimously agree that the perfect winter shoes are simple sneakers. In New York, Taylor Tomasi Hill kicked off Fashion Week with Saint Laurent high-tops — that she swapped out later in the week for some saddle-shoe-inspired Keds — while in London, blogger Camille Charriere stood out in throwback Adidas Superstars. Others preferred dressier versions, like Eva Chen’s iridescent high-tops, Joan Smalls’s silver Nikes, or Susie Lau’s gold lace-ups. By the end of week three, it’s indisputable: Athletic shoes — everything from Reeboks to Converse to New Balance — are all over the place. Click through the slideshow to see our favorites.
