There are certain sneaker silhouettes that are mainstays, even in celebrities' wardrobes. Adidas Sambas, Converse Chuck Taylors and Nike Air Jordans, for starters. Since the obsession has been covered ad nauseam, we're betting you already have plenty of pairs of the aforementioned styles. So we're focusing on designer sneakers that deserve a place of honor in your shoe closet.

The market is flush with stellar options. Much like T-shirts and baseball caps, almost every fashion house offers kicks as part of their lineups. Obviously, designer kicks come with designer prices. Despite that fact of life we managed to track down some more affordable pairs. By designer standards, at least. Tory Burch's Phoenix Sneakers come in a brilliant shade of blue and will only run you $248. Vivienne Westwood's iconic logo really pops set against a pink and cream background for just $231. Then there's Dries Van Noten's perforated set in a mix of neutral hues priced at $475.

On the other end of the cost spectrum, Miu Miu, Bottega Veneta, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci and Hermes all supply covet-worthy creations over $1,000. Miu Miu's colorful sneakers are perfect for spring, while Bottega Veneta's technical mesh number has a real sporty flair. (If you're a fan of Chuck Taylors, see Bottega Veneta's canvas high-tops marked at $990.) Gucci's anklet accent on its Re-Motion Sneakers is ideal for flaunting with shorts, midi dresses and skirts. Dolce & Gabbana's are made to make a statement with a swirling pattern punctuated by colorful gemstones decorating the heel.
