As in, it’s here to save you after you swore off sneakers for all of, like, a month, before you realized there’s no loafer on earth as comfortable as your favorite pair of runners. Easy to style, endlessly versatile, and somehow always elegant, the white sneaker—in leather, canvas, suede, or even some high-tech knitted fabric—is a year-round staple, and it’s here to stay.
