With the warmer weather rolling in, we are excited to get outside—but wearing what, exactly? Tops and bottoms are simple enough, but like everyone, we’re looking for the best spring sneakers. We want our kicks to be on-trend, comfy, and durable. And maybe a bit of running-centric versatility, in case we want to sweat off that backyard barbecue.
Faced with all these choices and criteria, we thought better to enlist some real style pros for tips. So, who better than two Altitude Sports Buyers to tell us what they’re wearing this spring and summer? We asked Sigrid and Theodora to choose their top spring sneakers, explain why they chose them, and touch on trends and styles you should be looking out for too.

FuelCell midsole cushioning that delivers an ultra-responsive ride, whether you’re hitting the pavement or cruising through your day. It’s the ultimate balance of comfort and performance.
