In 2026, the need to choose just one shoe style for a specific look no longer applies. You want the delicate aesthetic of a ballet shoe but the wearability of a sneaker? Enter the sneakerina. Want the professionalism of a loafer but the comfort of a rubber-soled trainer? Cop a pair of sneaker loafers. The sneaker wedge – popularised by Isabel Marant and the coterie of it girls who wore her wears religiously in the 2000s– are back too, this time at the hands of Puma.

So we've put together a compilation of the best shoe hybrids to cop now, from Nike's tabi-toed ballet sneakers, to Adidas's Mary janes.
