Fall Fashion 2014: The Season of the Sneaker

We've all been wearing sneakers forever but finally some of the top designers of haute couture have deemed them high fashion, enough to showcase them on the runway. While any sneakers have to make runway walking easier, not all trendy sneakers are made for serious walking. Luckily, there are some high fashion sneakers that are also high performance.

The Skechers Go Walk 2 Hypo

Another big Fall 2014 fashion trend are textures, especially rug-like textures, making these purple Skechers the perfect fashionable sneaker for fall.

Specifically made for walking, these Skechers contain V-Stride technology, a uniquely angled outsole that works with your natural walking gait. This guides your feet and helps you maintain more fluid strides. Each GOimpulse sensor works independently to provide a much more responsive walk.

In addition, the Go Walk 2 Hypo sneakers are super soft and amazingly flexible. The woven fabric is not only great looking, but supremely comfortable – perfect if you choose to go sockless. The Integrated OrthoLite® anti-microbial sockliner helps inhibit odor and prevent slippage. Resalyte™ midsole is a propriety lightweight injection-molded compound with memory retention to help absorb impact.

Reebok Skyscape Chase

Perfect for festivals or city walking, these abstract blue sneakers remind me of a painting, almost a cross between graffiti and Monet. Luckily, they are both stain and water repellent, so they'll stay looking new and beautiful longer.

The 360 degree foam midsole and foam upper makes these sneakers really plush and flexible. The seamless construction minimizes friction and rubber and flat laces reduce pressure points. Additional traction is obtained by minimal rubber accents.
