8 sneakers Korean celebrities love to wear on the go

When it comes to sneakers, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by all the options available. With a wide assortment of brands and styles to choose from, we’d be spoiled for choice if we had to pick our next pair to invest in. But what we love most about sneakers is how sleek and versatile they are.

They go with just about everything and they make it easy for you to get dressed and head out of the house in a flash.

Like us, celebrities are also often spotted wearing sneakers everywhere they go. They’re so easy to incorporate into your wardrobe and are far more comfortable than heels.

Whether it’s one of Jennie’s laidback outfits or even Taeyeon’s dressy vibes, here are 8 celeb-approved sneakers that are everywhere right now.

White sneakers are a failproof option that goes with just about any outfit. But if you’re looking for a splash of colour, consider investing in a classic pair of Converse Chuck 70 High Canvas shoes in Rush Blue like Bae Suzy’s.

Here, she goes for a monochromatic look, pairing her shoes with a denim blue jumpsuit and a cap for a casual and stylish look.

Mule sneakers have made a comeback after Korean celebs have been seen wearing their sneakers and stepping on the heels to turn them into a slip-on.

This casual yet stylish look has quickly caught favour and many brands have released their own take. In this case, Hwasa is seen sporting the Old Skool Mule from Vans and has been said to be one of the most well-loved slip-on mules in the market.
