It's undeniable: trainers have become an essential, non-negotiable part of our wardrobes. While we’re still reaching for the timeless classics in neutral tones, one of the hottest trainer trends for 2025 is silver trainers.

When it comes to timeless classics, the New Balance 530s and Alohas tb.490 Rife Trainers are sure to impress. Need style inspo? Not to worry, the influencers are here to help if you're wondering how to wear silver trainers, with many gravitating toward the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers. A true icon in the brand’s lineup, this shoe exudes effortless cool. Another standout pair making waves are the Adidas SL 72 OG trainers, which have been spotted on style icons like Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski, last year.
