Florals for spring? Yes, please! The buzziest new sneaker drop from Hoka features flowery sneakers that are almost convincing enough to fool a bumble bee. The Vibrant Bloom footwear collection offers five whimsical footwear styles adorned in happy florals, including fan-favorite recovery slides and adorable new walking shoes for women and men in Hoka’s cult-favorite sneaker models.
You may already have go-to white sneakers on standby for spring, but you definitely don’t have any that are quite as adorable and supportive these. The Vibrant Bloom sneaker collection includes three especially stylish iterations of the best Hoka sneakers, including makeovers to the One One Bondi L, Clifton L, and Clifton LS shoes, that are comfortable and versatile for long days on your feet — be it a day at the office or a picnic in the park.

The Bondi L, a plush, cushioned running shoe with durable off-white nubuck leather uppers, now comes framed in an embroidered floral crown with a unique purple marbled outsole. The supportive sneaker model features MetaRocker outsoles that aid in arch support and super smooth strides, along with a full-length EVA midsole for buoyant step-offs. Hoka’s One One Bondi franchise has been sported by countless off-duty celebrities from the gym to the airport, including Olivia Wilde, Sofia Vergara, Kris Jenner, and Gisele Bundchen.
The Vibrant Bloom Clifton L shoe features familiar flowery embroidery seen on the Bondi L, but this time blooming along the back of the leather uppers, as if an overgrown garden was vining around your heel. From the front, they look like typical white sneakers, while the playful pops of color will catch the eye of whoever’s trailing behind you. Clifton L’s stacked CMEVA midsole, airy perforated panelling, and soft EVA footbed make it an ideal walking shoe that can carry you through the day and into a post-work gym session or a sunset hike. The Clifton LS, the third offering in Hoka’s spring sneaker drop, comes with similar support as the Clifton L but with more luxe, lifestyle touches, like remixed pebbled leather uppers, luxe suede detailing, and low-profile laces. Instead of flowers, the shoe fronts cool orange waves on either side, plus royal purple pops along its high-traction, Durabrasion Rubber outsoles.
These fresh-picked, flower power steppers will bring an instant mood boost to your spring shoe rotation, whether you’re looking for a reliable running shoe with more fashion appeal or a daily sneaker that doesn’t feel so drab. As modeled in Hoka’s campaign imagery, they’re the ideal white sneakers to wear with dresses — especially with a pair of frilly socks for a double-dose of feminine flair. They’re also effortlessly easy to pair with daily denim and khakis, or to coordinate clothing pieces with the many colors that practically jump off the leather uppers.
