From streetwear classics to streamlined designs, we’ve got something for everyone .

During the week, you might be a high-flyer who leads board meetings in a pair of high-shine Church’s Oxfords. Or maybe you are a Viberg boot- loving hotshot in a creative agency. Either way, chances are that by the weekend, you will want to give your responsibility-weary feet some respite with a pair of sneakers. After all, they are the shoe of the everyman, the great sartorial leveller and a cornerstone of casual dressing – as much for downtime as running about.

At least we thought they were. In the throes of the January blues, we were worried that nine near-identical pairs would land on the MR PORTER editorial desk for this edit of the latest offerings. But lucky for us, this lot came along instead, inspired by basketball legends, grunge gods and streetwear staples.

So, whichever direction your style is heading in this spring, we’ve got the right sneakers for you.
