The Best Black Sneakers for Women (2021)

Okay, as a born-and-bred New Yorker, I know I’m biased. 

love black and all-black outfits.

But the reality is I truly believe black is one of the most versatile fashion colors, especially when it comes to footwear. 

In the fall & winter, black sneakers are a perfect, sporty complement to the muted colors that most of us opt for in cold weather. 

Those same black sneakers are also great looks in the spring and summer, when they can provide a striking contrast to the bright colors that warmer temperatures bring out of our closets!

Oh, come on, you already knew the best black high top sneakers had to come from the shoe that invented the look, the timeless Chuck Taylors from Converse.

This stylish shoe is so ubiquitous that there’s not much I could tell you about it that you don’t already know, but Converse has taken measures lately to increase its comfort and durability, which were admittedly sticking points many people had with these shoes in the past!
