We’re fast approaching the third month of summer, and it’s important to seize the last few weeks of good weather before we go back to long pants and long sleeves. Skirts and sneakers is this ultimate summertime combo – it adds a girly playfulness, feels breezy and comfortable and elevates your sneaker game. Scroll down for the best skirt and sneaker combinations for the end of summer.

Sporty skort

+ adidas Stan Smith Lo Ballets

When opting for a sportier look – this Nike x Skims skort is so cute – it’s crucial to not go too casual with your shoes. Balancing it out with a more ballet pump-style sneaker such as these Stan Smith Mary Janes by adidas will elevate your outfit.

Bubble mini skirt

+ Puma Speedcat Ballets

Balletcore is so back with so many brands embedding ribbons and ballet flat silhouettes in their designs. These Puma Speedcat Ballets amp the ballet energy with the pointe shoe ribbon. Style with a bubble skirt for that extra girly vibe.

’90s-style midi skirt

+ Nike Moon OGs

Sometimes, sticking to one tone can be so chic. This brown skirt by & Other Stories is equally perfect for a cute night out with the girls or the office (a real day-to-night) and pairing it with these Nike Moon shoes in a similar brown hue will make your outfit feel more put together.

Statement maxi skirt

+ Puma H-Street Cords

A long and voluminous skirt can feel like a bit much, but styling it in a more casual way with a sneaker (like these Puma H-Streets) and a tank top, can instantly make it cool and wearable.

Short denim skirt

+ Nike Air Rifts

Don’t know if you’ve noticed but we have paired all the short skirts here with some kind of ballet or Mary Jane-style sneaker, and that’s because when you wear a short skirt you want to elongate your legs as much as possible. If you choose to wear a flat shoe, opting for something that doesn’t cut off at the ankle will make your legs appear longer. Summer 2026 has been dubbed as the Air Rift summer – style yours with a denim skirt.
