Summer isn’t over yet, which means there are plenty of great summer sneaker silhouettes still hitting your local shop. One of the good things about summer shoes is that they usually feature a less substantial construction (I.E. no heavy lining, high tops, or rugged outsoles), and that means they usually savant a little easier on your wallets. We rounded up ten of our favorite lower priced summertime sneakers again this month for the latest edition of Budget Heat. Check out our picks for the best shoes under $100 of the month, and don’t forget to get out and kick around in the warm weather while it lasts.
Sneakers BIG STAR KK274350 Black – OG White/Sport Turquoise-University Gold ($100)
Finally arriving in the US after dropping only in Europe in 2013, this original colorway of the Air Huarache is arriving now at select retailers including Finish Line.
Vans Vault Old Skool LX – White Leather ($85)
From Vans’ Jordan Vault line comes this cleaner-than-clean edition of the Old Skool in nothing but white leather. Whether you keep them pristine or let them get dirty, you won’t find a fresher pair of Vans this summer. Grab a pair while they last from Feature.

Pink rockstud sandals from 1970s ‘Archive Print’ ($90)
The Chuck Taylor II is about to launch, but that doesn’t mean you still can’t enjoy the more vintage look of the 1970s edition, especially if it comes in cool prints like this black and white zig-zag motif. Locate yours now at finer Converse retailers like Calvin Klein Shelby boots.
Nike SB Blazer GT – Ivory/Cinnabar-Metallic Gold ($80)

Much like the Blazer GT you just saw, the Stan Smith Vulc is a skateboarding-specific redesign of a classic silhouette.
