If I could only choose one type of shoe to wear for the rest of my life, it’d be sneakers. After opening my busting-at-the-seams closet, you’d find well over 15 pairs, and the ones I wear most often are all from Adidas.
Take it from a shoe snob like me: If you’re looking for new styles to add to your wardrobe in 2025, I won’t steer you wrong regarding comfortable options. I rounded up my favorite Adidas sneakers, which I’ve tested and love. Plus, certain styles have also been spotted on celebrities like Katie Holmes, Jennifer Lawrence, and Hailey Bieber.
Editor-Tested Adidas Sneaker Favorites
- Samba OG Shoes, $100
- Handball Spezial Shoes, $110
- Sambae Shoes, $110
- VL Court 3.0 Shoes, $75
- Gazelle Shoes, $100
Samba OG Shoes
Adidas
$100
The Samba OG Shoes are my most well-loved sneakers. They’re popular among celebrities like Katie Holmes, Kendall Jenner, and Hailey Bieber for a reason—they go with literally everything. You can’t go wrong with the classic cloud white and core black, but if you’d rather have a pop of color, there are other combinations like red and white or pink and white.
Handball Spezial Shoes
Adidas
$110
I own two pairs of Handball Spezial Shoes, including a collaboration that Adidas did with Sporty & Rich, along with my newest pair that’s putty gray and red. The retro, ‘70s-inspired sneakers combine a suede and textile upper with a durable rubber outsole that’s comfortable for hours of walking the streets of NYC.
Sambae Shoes
Adidas
$110
My newest pair of Adidas sneakers (which have been on my wish list for a while) are the Sambae Shoes. They’re the perfect cross between the VL Court 3.0 Shoes and the Samba OGs, and since I’m a fan of both, I had to have these. They were comfortable right out of the box and offered excellent traction on wet surfaces.
VL Court 3.0 Shoes
Adidas
$75
I’m a fan of wearing sneakers with elevated outfits like skirts and dresses, and the VL Court 3.0 style from Adidas is my go-to in white. Although the popular color is nearly sold out, other options like off-white and gray, green and white, and carbon and white are still in stock and easy to style with a variety of looks.
Gazelle Shoes
Adidas
$100
The low profile of the Gazelle Shoes makes them one of my favorite sneakers for casual outfits. They’re inspired by early ‘90s fashion and combine a suede upper with textile lining. Compared to other Adidas styles, these do have a slight break-in period but form to your feet over time for a comfortable fit.
