The average American owns about 19 pairs of shoes, and it’s important that some of them are comfortable. Tennis shoes offer comfort and arch support that keeps you active and promotes foot health. They also can be extremely stylish and bring outfits together like never before.
But how can you style your colorful tennis shoes to look amazing? That’s what we’re going to talk about today, so read on for some ways that you can use brightly-hued sneakers to spruce up your wardrobe.

1. Monochromatic Color Schemes
Monochromatic color schemes are one of the main color schemes derived from the color wheel. Unlike analogous and complementary schemes, monochromatic outfits are comprised of black or white plus a single other color. There aren’t two or three bright hues that you need to match with each other.
These outfits are ideal for those who want to bring out the colors in their shoes and make them the center of your outfit. Pairing bright yellow or orange shoes with black clothes ensures a casual look that makes your sneakers pop.
You can bring the entire outfit together with a scrunchie or armband that matches the shoes. If you want to make the color a bigger part of your outfit, you can also get a shirt that matches the tennis shoe color.
Note that a monochromatic outfit leaves room for multiple hues of the same color. If you have electric blue tennis shoes and pair them with a white shirt, you can use dark blue pants. They both count as “blue” and are the same color- they’re just different shades of it.
2. Create Contrast
Don’t want to go out looking too matchy-matchy? That’s fine- all you need to do is learn about complementary color schemes.
These are made up of two hues directly across from each other on the color wheel. Some options include yellow/purple, orange/blue, and yellow-green/red-violet. Note that while red and green are complementary colors, they are the only set that clash.
If you choose to go this route, your best bet is to contrast your shoes with your shirt and other accessories. Immediately wearing complementary hues between your shoes and leggings gives no room for transition between two parts of your outfit. A yellow tee with black leggings is the best bet for those who want to wear purple shoes.
3. Graphic T-Shirts and Jeans
Another awesome option for casual wearers is to pair your colorful tennis shoes with your favorite tee and some jeans. This look is a classic for a reason- it looks good on everyone. It never goes out of style, and 2022 is no exception to this rule.
Get a graphic tee that features a logo, image, or phrase that means something to you. Bonus points if you can get a graphic that matches the color of your shoes. You also can try out ripped jeans, which are a 90s trend that seems to be coming back strong this year.
If you don’t like ripped styles, you can also try some high-ankled boyfriend jeans. These cut off above the ankle and leave a strip of exposed skin between the cuff of the pants and your colorful sneakers. Wear patterned socks (that don’t clash) or simply show off the skin to make your shoes stand out.
4. T-Shirt Dresses and Oversized Tees
Casual outfits are fun because you can experiment with new things with zero judgment. One of the styles that people have begun trying out lately is a T-shirt dress. These dresses are loose and made from cotton or similar T-shirt materials that keep you comfy and cool in the summertime.
They come in tons of different colors and styles so you can find something that goes perfectly with your new shoes. Some of them have laces up the sides, which is a great way to draw the dress together with your shoes.
Speaking of clothes that sometimes have laces up the sides, leggings- especially those styled to look higher-end- pair extremely well with regular oversized T-shirts.
Whether you go this route or pair the large tee with some shorts, they’re a great way to bring casual clothes and fashion together. That’s the point of brightly-hued tees, so try it out!
5. Show Off an Anklet
Anklets, also known as ankle bracelets, pair great with any bright tennis shoe like the Revenge X Storm. These are a huge women’s fashion trend right now because they draw attention to the ankles and feet. Just what you want to do when showing off colorful shoe styles!
There are tons of colors you can choose from when you shop at Kickscrew, and these shoes all are cut off at ankle height. Wearing a dress or short pair of jeans gives you the chance to get an anklet that matches their color. Try getting a chain that features a charm or bead that boasts a similar hue.
One really fun thing that you can do is pair light pink tennis shoes with rose gold jewelry. The shoes will work to bring out the pieces that you’re wearing. Since rose gold is both beautiful and trendy, this is sure to establish you as a fashion authority in funky social settings.
