We are always on top of which sneakers are fresh on the market. But 'fresh' isn't a guarantee of greatness. Here at CerbeShops, we like to let you in on what is genuinely exceptional. With that intention, of course, we want to give you our full, honest opinion and verdict. To do that, we spend our own earnings to cop all the sneakers we test. 

Moreover, we try out each of the sneakers while being out and about - on the streets, malls, parks, restaurants, etc. We also go as far as sporting the sneakers with different fits, to give you what's what from function to comfort, and style.

As if those aren't enough, we also put the sneakers through a series of tests inside our lab. We test for durability (Dremel test), waterproof ability, flexibility, and more!

Best sneakers overall

Adidas Ozweego
95
Superb!

What makes it the best?

Sneakers needed to be comfortable to get our attention, and the Adidas Ozweego delivered lots of it. It has plush cushioning and a pretty roomy upper. We even thought that this shoe could comfortably accommodate wide-footers because of how spacious it felt. We couldn’t ask for more because this shoe also delivered so well in the looks department. The best sneaker to date, indeed!

The midsole was a little thicker than average, especially at the forefoot. Our caliper measured it to be 24.7 mm thick at the forefoot when the average was only 20.0 mm. Not only was this part thicker, it was softer as well. Our HA durometer gave it a score of 26.8, making it significantly softer than the 30.9 average. This midsole made us experience what walking on pillows all the time felt like. 

Aside from being soft and comfortable, the shoe also had a lot of space inside out, allowing our feet a lot of breathers. The widest part of the footbed was 105.0 mm (ave 99.1 mm) wide as per our caliper while it opened as much as 79.0 mm (ave 75.2 mm) at the big toe.

All the goodness we’ve discussed thus far would have been for naught if the Adidas Ozweego didn’t look as nice as it did. We loved it so much that we got compliments wherever we went. We loved it even more that this shoe was available in a lot of colorways.

While the materials indeed looked good, they did not really feel the most premium. We could even say that in some areas, especially in spaces where mesh was used, the shoe actually felt cheap.

Best classic sneakers

Adidas Samba

Great!

What makes it the best?

Not only is the Adidas Samba famous for its classic aesthetics, but we also found it exceptionally durable for the price point. Despite some minor flaws, the shoe's incredibility remains unchanged as we choose to focus on the greatness it brings to the table. Part of the Originals collection, the shoe's combination of good looks, high-quality materials, and reliable comfort resonated very well with us.

Best chunky sneakers

What makes it the best?

Emerging from a successful collaborative effort, the 9060 from New Balance is such a captivating running-inspired kick on almost every front. We were hooked by the shoe’s futuristic flair only to be further endeared by its highly comfortable nature. And have we mentioned how ridiculously well-made this bad boy is yet? It seems to be too good to miss out on.

Best retro sneakers

What makes it the best?

The look of the tenis under tommer armour charged stamina preto cinza had not been tampered with in its current version, so one could feel all the nostalgia just by looking at this shoe. It is for this reason that we hail this ASICS sneaker as the best retro release to date. Its plush cushioning and pretty stable platform just made loving it a lot easier. 

From the bulky look down to the many overlays that made this shoe look caged, all the defining characteristics of the OG were retained in this shoe. We loved its scene-stealing prowess, especially when we strutted the streets. 

The softness of its midsole was really noteworthy. Our HA durometer gave it a rating of only 19.0 when the average could go as high as 30.9. That's a 39% difference in softness! We loved that this tenis under tommer armour charged stamina preto cinza made it experience what it was like to walk on clouds.

Even if the midsole was soft, we never felt wobbly because this shoe had a pretty wide platform that erased any possibility of slipping. It was 111.8 mm wide at the forefoot and 90.1 mm wide at the heel. The respective averages were only 108.9 mm and 83.4 mm.

The breathability of the upper was a bit disappointing, though. It only got a dismal 2 out of 5 in our breathability assessments.

Best premium sneakers

What makes it the best?

The 6th version of the 990 series truly impressed us as a sneaker that incorporates cushioning tech from actual running shoes (hello, FuelCell foam). We were also amazed with this historic dad shoe's well-padded interiors, Goldilocks squishiness, and an astounding level of arch support. Proudly made in the USA, it is a pricey kick that, in our opinion, justifies every cent with premium materials and craftsmanship.

Best futuristic sneakers

What makes it the best?

Through a series of tests, I established that the Air Max 270 is a sleek, sporty, lightweight lifestyle shoe. With a huge 32 mm heel height, it's definitely a head-turner. Ultimately, this is a durable shoe that fits in perfectly with the times and at a fair price.
