Athletic sneakers are the perfect kicks to get in a good sweat session and look sleek with an adorable matching workout set. So, which ones should you get? Here are some favorites of SI Swimsuit models.
Hunter McGrady - Nike Air Max 270, $160 (nike.com)
“I love the Nike Air Max 270,” says McGrady. “They have so much support, and because they have a mesh toe, they work great for narrow and wide feet.”
Katrina Scott - Adidas Ultraboost, $190 (adidas.com)
“The Adidas Ultraboost in all white has been my go-to for years,” says Scott. “They are super durable, flexible and give you a ton of support, especially for longer runs.”
Mady Dewey - Nike Air Zoom Pegasus, $130 (nike.com)
“My favorite is the Nike Pegasus Air Zoom in white,” says Dewey. “They are not only sleek and look great with any workout set, but they are also comfortable and supportive for a variety of activities. I walk, run and cross-train in these shoes, and they work wonderfully for all situations.”

While Harper keeps it varied regarding her workouts, she does stick with a favorite sneaker when hitting the gym or pavement. “I love my Hoka Clifton 8 running shoe,” she says.

Nike Air Zoom Structure 24, $130 (nike.com)
“I run every morning and wear my Nike running shoes, so I’m a Nike girl,” says Live. “They are my favorite because they’re cute and look good because they have the swoosh, and because after I get done running [mainly on the treadmill], I can go right from running to weight training and not change my shoes, so it works perfectly for both.”
Katie Austin - Under Armour HOVR, $104.97 (underarmour.com)
If someone knows a thing or two about sneakers, it has to be Austin. The fitness phenom even has her own app filled with workouts and recipe's.
