NEW DROP
THE TRAINERS YOU'LL BE WEARING ALL SUMMER
By Symone Keisha, 26 May 2025
There’s so much to look forward to this summer: festivals, city breaks, weekends spent at overpriced bakeries and brunch spots with friends – the list is endless. But what are you going to do all these things in? Trainers, probably. And whether you’re a dopamine-dresser, athleisure lover or like something a little more low-key, we’ve got you covered with new drops from Nike, adidas, PUMA and more. Here are 5 just-dropped trainers set to give your collection a summer-ready update.
Have you been introduced to the Air Max Muse yet? If not, get involved. One of Nike's newer silhouettes, they're designed specifically for women, combining modern design and comfort – two things Nike always gets right. This pair, with a white and silver colourway and otherworldly design, offers a futuristic feel for all your SS25 styling. Match the semi-gloss finish with stacks of silver jewellery.
It should come as no surprise to see cow print on this line-up. Animal print is having a well-deserved moment, and it's easy to see why. These Vans trainers are typical in shape, but that cow print? Extra style points, instantly. Style them with your favourite barrel-leg jeans, jorts or spring skirts for on-the-go looks with big style payoff.
You've probably seen the Speedcat across your FYP, on your favourite influencers or IRL (probably all three if we're being honest), and there's a perfectly good reason why. It's because they're major. And the trainer's super-sleek, minimal design meets loud colour with this pair – pink and red is always a good combination, especially for summer. Thank you, PUMA.
A good trainer collection can't exist without a box-fresh white pair, and New Balance has delivered on this season's iteration. The 740s are a classic dad sneaker with a chunky design and comfort at the forefront. Plus, they originally launched as a running shoe, so they've got that athletic edge perfect for casual days.

Nothing beats a good earth-toned palette. Case in point: these adidas Taekwondos. Add in a low-profile silhouette and laceless design, and you've got your favourite new pair of go-to trainers. So minimalist they'll go with everything, these are the ones you'll be reaching for when you can't decide what shoes to wear.
