Summer, spring, fall, or winter—your feet take a beating every day, no matter the season—often creating a swampy, sweaty environment in your shoes. It’s a gross feeling you know all too well, especially when peeling your socks off after an intense workouts. This type of mistreatment also creates a breeding ground for bacteria, fungal skin infections, and funky odors. That’s nasty.

Having a pair of moisture-wicking socks is one way of keeping your feet cooled, but a pair of breathable sneakers is an even better solution to enjoy sweat-free results. The market’s top shoemakers have developed new footwear technology, from breathable knit fabrics to perforated uppers, each designed to let air pass through for ventilated relief. Classic canvas sneakers are also employing modern designs to provide better circulation and wearability.

If you’re worried about compromising style for support, catch your breath because we’ve collected some of the hottest and most coveted breathable sneakers for men of all active lifestyles.
