re at FN cheap Yeezy 700 , we're also consumers. And while we all cover different aspects of the footwear world, one thing we have in common is the love for a good pair of sneakers. With 2019 still young, here's a look at the kicks some of the staff at FN is looking to buy this year.Under Armour Project Rock 1"Looking good in the gym was never a priority for me. I mean, you're going to get sweaty and gross, so who cares what you look like? But now that I work out in the city where everyone looks like a fitness influencer, I need to make sure my sneakers are on point. The Project Rock 1 from Under Armour is not only functional, but it also looks great." — Peter Verry, senior athletic and outdoor editorAdidas Originals by Alexander Wang Turnout Trainer"I’ll always favor the way I look and feel in heels, but I’d be willing to trade them during fashion month for these cool sneakers, which boast a chunky sole, avant-garde silhouette and undeniably retro vibe." — Samantha McDonald, digital news editorAllbirds Wool Runner"For the longest time, Allbirds Runners were a West Coast trend, but now I'm seeing them every day during my NY subway commute — the FOMO is starting to be overwhelming! But on a more serious note, I heartily support their eco-friendly efforts. And rumor has it the shoes are pretty darn comfortable, too." — Jennie Bell, features editorBzees Niche Slip On"I’ve finally come on board, embracing the sneaker trend for dress-up as well as dress-down wear. This feminine athletic-inspired Mary Jane style delivers on comfort and style, paired with a pretty summer dress.” — Barbara Schneider Levy Cheap Air Yeezy , senior editor, men’s and comfortSaucony Kinvara 10"On my wish list is the Saucony Kinvara 10. I’ve been a fan of this minimalist shoe since its first iteration, and although I think the company hit perfection in the Kinvara 4, I’d like to see what it has tweaked since my last pair (the 8)." — Lief Nielsen, copy editorVans Old Skool"I've gotten my fill of the dad sneaker trend lately, which probably explains my recent penchant for classic, low-fi kicks. Case in the point: The Vans Old Skool. The iconic skate-inspired look is so versatile, I’m not worried it will gather dust at the back of my closet in a few seasons. And since it goes with practically everything in my closet — from boyfriend jeans to midi dresses — getting dressed in the morning is a cinch (always a plus, if you ask me)." — Sam Peters, e-commerce editorNike x Comme des Garçons Cortez Platform“I’ve been obsessed with the Nike x Comme des Garçons Cortez platform sneakers ever since I saw them walk down the runway in Paris last February. It was my first time seeing a Comme des Garçons show and it was pure joy — the models were wearing brightly colored, overly voluminous confections and the platform sneakers were the perfect punctuation for all the frills. I like to think I would float through the day wearing them — plus, as a petite person, I always welcome a little added height!” — Shannon Adducci, fashion editorNike M2K Tekno"I’m in the market for a versatile pair of sneakers that will work with a number of outfits. Living in the city, cushion and comfort are qualities I look for in footwear. I think these Nike M2K Tekno satisfy all those criteria and the colorway is pure freshness and fun." — Phong Nyugen, designerAdidas Originals Stan Smith"Stylish, versatile, classic and affordable, Adidas’ Stan Smith shoes in white with a touch of color on the heel tab are classics that I need as my new go-to kicks." — Charlie Carballo how to buy chan sneakers , senior digital editorNike Metcon 4 XD"I'm in the market for a new workout shoe and the Nike Metcon is good for everything and the pops of color look nice." — Katie Abel, executive editorNike Air Huarache City"Funky ‘90s colors with a customizable look, how can you go wrong? Since, I spend most of my day drowning in earnings reports and Wall Street stocks, I like to keep my style way less serious. These street style kicks give me just the edge I’m looking for." — Sheena Butler Young, senior business editorAll products featured have been independently selected and curated by our editorial team.
