Every stylish woman I know is an Alo Yoga fan. Truly, madly, deeply. For many chic celebs (including Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber), fashion editors and influencers, it's the ultimate activewear brand, offering the best of everything – from leggings and sports bras to loungewear sets. As it turns out, though, you can improve on perfection, and the brand's latest trainer launch is solid proof.
Released this week, the Sunset Sneaker marks the brand's third foray into the sneakerverse. Where the previous Alo Runner and Recovery Mode trainers tapped into performance-based silhouettes, these trainers make for a more fashion-forward addition to the line-up. Leaning into the sleek silhouettes that have been reigning supreme through multiple seasons now (hello, Adidas Sambas and Puma Speedcats), the suede trainers hit all the right minimalist notes.

From the Pilates studio to dinner dates, these sleek black trainers will seamlessly slot into any look.
Sure, the most appealing thing about the Sunset trainers might be the streamlined silhouette, but that's not the only thing piquing our interest. Wrapped in buttery soft suede, the trainers sit on a recovery foam insole that prioritises comfort. Then there's the neutral colour palette and wide laces that add a timeless finish. And because no one likes those dreaded new-shoe blisters, the heel collar is padded.
Available in classic black and beige, no matter which trainer you go for, you'll find that it goes with pretty much anything in your wardrobe. A coffee and croissant run? A weekend brunch with friends? Getting your steps in? Wherever the day is taking you, the Sunset trainers will keep you company. While they look brilliant with jeans, summer dresses, easy leggings and everything in between for a casual flair, I'd also pair them with my tailoring for a subtle contrast at the office.

If you're on the hunt for a low-key trainer, this beige pair is perfectly fashion-forward and functional.
Designed with a stabilising heel, impact-absorbing midsole, and breathable upper, the ALO Runner is an excellent running shoe. Available in five neutral, as well as six limited-edition pastel shades, you could also style the chunky trainers with your jeans for an off-duty flair.
With a more vintage skater silhouette, the Recovery Mode trainers are perfect for casual walks in the park. We love this navy/white limited edition colourway, but there are plenty of others to pick from to suit your style.
