The hottest trend for your summer workout wardrobe is light, bright and bold sneakers. Shoes can transform your body language and your attitude even if they are just a pair of workout kicks. And who doesn’t want a mood boost when it is time to break a sweat?
You likely got a glimpse of the eye-catching sneakers worn by elite athletes at the London Olympics. The neon colors are hard to miss! Celebrities hopped onto the color party and many retailers quickly launched exercise sneakers that are ablaze with bright hues.
Make a fitness fashion statement by adding a pop of color (and fun) to your feet. Here are some sneaks we have our eye on:
1. adidas
Vibrant colors are the focus of adidas’ neon collection. We are in love with the adipure Trainer 360 shoe that is built with your foots natural movement in mind. There are flex grooves on the outsole and stabilization on the inside. Oh, and did we mention you can purchase them in neon yellow. ($85, adidas.com)
2. New Balance
Who needs one color on their shoe when you can have multiples? The neon glory of the limited edition Harley Pasternak 997V2 shoe is exactly our style. The lightweight material and the blaze of bright colors will make you move more quickly and efficiently as you hop from CrossFit to the trails. ($89.99, newbalance.com)
3. asics
it is like every color in the paint store made it onto the Gel-Noosa Tri 8 asics shoe. The neon splattered kicks were designed to enhance the foot’s natural gait from heel strike to toe-off and weigh in at about an ounce. The upper mesh is optimized for moisture drainage and foot breathability. Perfect for your fastest PR yet. ($130, asicsamerica.com)
4. Nike
Bring your neon love to the basketball court with Nike’s Jordan Spizike iD. You can customize the sport-focused shoes to fit your style, but the base comes in several shades of bright colors. You’ll definitely be getting looked at…in a good way! ($210, nike.com)
5. Skechers
If you are looking for a minimalistic running shoe, the GOrun 2 from Skechers will appease you. The shoe was created to foster the barefoot running experience so it is nearly weightless. And we can’t deny the thought of hot pink and highlighter yellow makes us VERY happy. ($80, skechers.com)
