Amongst all the TikTok trends that have cropped up in 2022, the “Hot Girl Walk” is one of my favorite finds from my “For You” page. You might already know what it is, but if you don’t here’s a brief rundown: Created by TikTok user Mia, it’s basically a stroll (or strut, depending on your mood) where you reflect on yourself, your goals, and your general hotness. Positive vibes, only please — and some colorful sneakers would also be appreciated.

Just like the “Hot Girl Walk” can give you a boost of confidence (while you get some exercise, too, no less), so can a new pair of colorful sneakers that you’ll want to wear all season long. Below, I’ve rounded up a saturated selection of shoes in an array of hues and personality-packed prints. From lavender cheetah-print Vans to red-lip-adorned Chuck Converses, these babies are eye-catching and will instantly liven up any outfit.

Whether on your daily stroll, heading to brunch with friends, or running errands, these bright and fun colorful sneakers will quickly become your go-to. Scroll on to see 13 colorful sneakers to buy now. No matter the distance, your “Hot Girl Walk” just got a serious upgrade.

Unapologetically bold, these Vans feature a slew of unexpected elements — from the velvet fabric to the cheetah print to the lavender hue. As a bonus, its padded footbed keeps your whole foot from heel to toe comfortable while the rubber sole provides a durable and flexible base.

You can’t go wrong with a classic pair of Converse sneakers. You’ll love this pair not only for its kitschy lip print, but also for the pop of color that brightens up the basic black base. For extra support, use the tie-up laces to keep ankles safe during your next “Hot Girl Walk” or grocery store run.

For a chic yet colorful sneaker, look to this P448 pair. Made in Italy, they’re made from calf leather and thermoplastic rubber, but the real stars of the show here are the metallic detailing, rainbow ribbon laces, and a chunky sole.

The perfect pairing to your favorite exercise gear, these low-top knit sneakers command attention with their neon turquoise hue. Complete with that classic Nike swoosh logo, the treaded rubber sole and cushioned pods will keep your feet comfy during your workout.

A slightly darker shade — like the desert-inspired terracotta of these sneakers — will make dirt and dust less noticeable, allowing you to get more wear out of your shoes. With a low-top design and logo pattern at the rib knit collar, these See by Chloé sneakers will quickly become a workout wardrobe go-to.

If you tend to speed walk or cover a lot of ground during your “Hot Girl Walk,” then opt for these trail-friendly sneakers. The foam rubber midsole will keep you moving through rough patches. Plus, how cool is that grey and cream speckled pattern?

Can’t choose just one color? Wear all of them with these rainbow-hued sneakers. The low-top canvas shoes boast a multicolored stripe pattern, elasticized side gussets so they can easily be slipped on and off, and are finished with a treaded rubber outsole.

Embrace those athleisure vibes with these go-with-anything pale lilac sneakers. Crafted from faux leather, details include a monochromatic lace-up closure, comfy padded collar, and mesh lining. They’ll look so cool with an all-black outfit at brunch.

Didn’t you hear? Logo-covered fashion pieces are back — another Y2K revival, like bucket hats and denim skirts. With a high-top silhouette and their multicolored brand name allover print, these See by Chloé sneakers are right on trend.

Fun and feminine, these sneakers have an unexpected ditsy floral print that’s hard not to fall for. In addition to the jacquard woven graphic pattern, they also feature baby blue laces and a rubber midsole with smudging for a lived-in feel.

I’m getting ‘80s vibes from these Nike sneakers and their multicolored striping. Details include an embroidered swoosh logo, soft terrycloth lining, Nike’s signature Air Sole, and a mix of fabrics that include knit, grained leather, suede, and mesh.

The minty green ombré coloring of these Converse sneakers is perfect for summer. In addition to its gradient tones and leather logo appliqué, the high-tops also feature a platform sole that’s very cool-girl-running-errands.

Trimmed with primary colors, these sneakers are giving ‘90s elementary school vibes — in the best possible way. Light purple laces, a comfortably padded collar, and a super chunky platform sole are the finishing touches to these playground-ready shoes.
