By its very nature, fashion tends to move in cycles, and not everyone has the time or patience to stay on top of trends, which are often here one minute and gone the next.

As such, it's a smart move to keep a few timeless sneaker options in your rotation. Below, we've rounded up some classic silhouettes that will never go out of style. Head over to Highsnobiety‘s dedicated shopping channel, What Drops Now, to shop the range in full.

We all got a bit carried away with veggie tan kicks in 2016, so it speaks volumes that these have stood the test of time. Pair them up with some light colored jeans for the perfect summer look.
