The 11 Coolest Sneakers For Men That are Still On Trend

Author: Patrick Varone
Last Major Update: February 1, 2022

Because men’s sneakers have certainly come a long way from just all black (although we still love those). Shop our picks for the most stylish kicks for men this year.

Sneakers for Men 2022 - Best Men's Sneaker Trends

We may earn commission from the links on this page, but we still only recommend products we love. Yes, really.  Here's how we do it!

We’re obsessed with all things ‘sneakers.’  Whether you call them ‘tennis shoes’ or ‘sneakers’ we can all agree that we can’t get enough of them.  You used to have a pair of sneakers strictly for running and then another pair to sport when you’re just hanging out, but now those lines are being blurred and we’re wearing our running kicks with our favorite pair of jeans and heading out for the day.  Yeah, yeah we know we’re supposed to keep our running shoes just for running, but we can’t help ourselves.

This season some of the biggest sneaker trends we’ve seeing all have to do with nostalgia, simpler times, and retro looks.  And while we always agree that sneakers should come in a ton of different colors, right now it’s all about white kicks.  Perfect for the spring and summer!

If you’re in the market for some new kicks, right now just may be the perfect time to make your purchase.  According to a recent study, the best months to upgrade your sneakers is April and November.  This is usually because the major retailers are already making room for the next season. Since we’re not, you know, buying a car in this instance we’re fine with buying ours now when, you know, we actually need them.

From running to leisure and designer to the latest trends and colors we’ve rounded up some of the hottest mens sneakers (so far) in 2022!

 THE May 2022 PICK 

1.  PUMA Future Rider
Puma

$80 | Nordstrom

 

 Size Guide:  True to size

Looking for a nice pop of color this season and show of that 90s trend that’s circling us again?  Check out these flash kicks from Puma that are totally soft suede and mixed textures to make these quite the conversation piece and they’re comfy as all hell.  They’ll look great with a decent pair of shorts, your comfiest chinos – you name it.


 EDITOR’S PICK 

2.  The Nike Killshot 2 Sneaker
Nike

Nike KillShot 2

$90 | Nike

 

 Size Guide:  Go a half size up

These are the sneakers that have basically gone viral and have been selling out over and over again all year long, thanks to J. Crew featuring them.  The good news is that (as of right now) they’re back in stock and still in style.  They’re a classic throwback, oddly comfortable, and look great with jeans, shorts, or even your favorite pair of chinos.  They now come in additional swoosh color options like navy blue, hyper-blue, and grey.


 THE VIRAL PICK 

3.  The Allbirds Tree Runners
Allbirds

AllBirds for Men

$95.00

$95 | Allbirds

 

 Size Guide:  If you’re a half size, size down

Perhaps the most talked about sneakers online in the past year is Allbirds.  They’re insanely comfy, lightweight, feel great, are machine washable, and did we mention they’re made with eucalyptus tree? Renewable materials are the way to go! These come in a ton of other color options too.  It’s like walking on air!


 BEST FOR SPRING/SUMMER 

4.  Cole Haan GrandPro Low Tops
Cole Haan

White Leather Cole Haan Designer Sneakers

$140.00

Buy at Nordstrom

 

 Size Guide:  True to size

If you’re looking for more a dressy or ‘adult’ pair of sneakers, these newbies from Cole Haan are a total winner.  You can typically get away with sporting them to work and look great with your favorite dark pair of jeans too.  These low-top leather kicks come in different colors like black, blazer blue, brown, and more.  Learn more here!


 THE CLASSIC PICK 

5.  Chuck Taylor in White
Converse

Classic Chucks For Men

$60 | Amazon

 

 Size Guide:  True to size

You can  never go wrong with a pair of brand new Chucks.  Ours typically are nasty by the end of the summer so it’s always a good idea to freshen them early in the season so they have that worn in look before you know it.  As always, these come in a wide variety of colors so pick up a few while you’re at it.


 THE 80’s THROWBACK 

6.  The Nike Air Tailwind
Nike Nike Men's

$90 | Nordstrom

 

 Size Guide:  True to size

Perhaps the coolest pair of the year are the Nike Air Tailwind.  They’ll bring you back to the kicks you had as a kid and look great in a variety of different colors.  These are totally breathable, comfortable to wear, and look great with just about anything you own.


 THE RETRO PICK 

7.  The New Balance 990v5 in Grey
New Balance

New Balance Retri Grey

$175 | New Balance

 

 Size Guide:  True to size

This is a classic that we love each and every year, mainly because New Balance hasn’t changed the look hasn’t changed that much over the years.  If it’s not broken, why fix it?  This one also comes in black too.


 THE RUNNING SHOE 

8.  The Adidas CF Lite Racer
Adidas

Adidas Grey Running Sneakers

$50 | Amazon

 

 Size Guide:  True to size (half sizes available)

If you need a pair of running shoes that are pretty light, yet still supportive – these are it!  A top seller from Adidas with currently over 4,300 ratings on Amazon, these come in a bunch of different colors like black, white, navy, red, and more.


 THE LIGHTWEIGHT PICK 

9.  The Jack Purcell Canvas Sneakers
Converse

Jack Purcell Grey Canvas

$65 | Converse

 

 Size Guide:  True to size (half sizes available)

Nothing welcomes spring and summer more than these!  They go great with shorts, light or dark jeans, and especially your favorite pair of broken in chinos.  They also come with an OrthoLite footbed so they’ll be comfortable to bum around in all day long.


 THE TRENDY PICK 

10.  Vans Classic Slip-On Sneakers
Vans

Vans Checkered Slip On Sneakers

$60 | Zappos

 

 Size Guide:  Runs small, buy a half-size up

We love Vans and nothing says spring and summer quite like these classic checkered canvas slip-ons.  They’re one of the best-sellers year after year and season after season.  The padded footbed provides comfort for your feet all day (and night) long!  Pair them with your favorite light jeans, shorts, chinos or whatever you’re feeling comfortable in.  They come in other colors too like black, navy blue, checkered, and more.


 BEST FOR EVERYDAY 

11.  Adidas ‘Swift’ Sneakers for Men
Adidas

Adidas White Running Shoes

$60 | Amazon

 

 Size Guide:  True to size

Sure these are great for your daily runs, but also uber fashionable.  Pair them with your favorite light jeans or, of course, your casual track pants when you’re bumming around the house or running errands around town.
