5 Celebrity-Favorite Sneaker Brands Kaia Gerber, Gigi Hadid, and More A-Listers Swear By
Shop their favorites from trendy Adidas to classic Vans.
Despite their near-infinite access to the newest designer collections, the best-dressed A-listers all rely on one wardrobe essential: the trendy sneaker. It seems like every It girl has her go-to sneaker brand these days. So, I did some research and found the ones my favorite style stars wear the most.
Gigi Hadid—and her sister Bella, for that matter—are almost exclusively photographed in Adidas kicks. Kaia Gerber, supermodel and low-key style star, is never without a trusty pair of Nike sneakers. Zendaya, an icon of the tenniscore scene and fresh off a global Challengers press tour, prefers to wear the same On sneakers that she did on-screen. Even Jennifer Lawrence, a devotee of The Row and Dior, has aligned herself with a brand with casual offerings under $100: Vans. It’s as if there’s some secret sneaker sorority system in Hollywood, with each celebrity pledging her allegiance to her preferred brand.
Keep scrolling to shop the best—and in some cases, the exact—sneakers that each model or actress can’t stop wearing this summer. After all, snagging a celebrity’s favorite pair of sneakers can be the easiest way to tap into their style.
Kaia Gerber's Nike Sneakers
Kaia Gerber's love for her Nike sneakers runs deep. Whether wearing a chunky dad-style sneaker with leggings or Nike's newest black sneaker—created in collaboration with Bode—with the perfect transitional ensemble, the supermodel is rarely spotted in anything else.
Gigi Hadid's Adidas Sneakers
2024 has been the year of the Adidas sneaker for Gigi Hadid. She recently teamed a red pair of Gazelle sneakers with jorts—co-signing the divisive jorts trend in the process—but she's also worn them with everything from an oversized trench coat to a white skirt and cherry-red sweater.
Jennifer Lawrence's Vans
Leave it to Jennifer Lawrence to soft-launch a new sneaker trend. And while she's a fan of all things The Row, the Oscar-winner has been spotted several times wearing Vans sneakers priced at under $100. She's worn both black and yellow iterations for casual walks around Manhattan and even to the airport.
Zendaya's On Sneakers
Zendaya's love for On dates back to her days spent filming Challengers, but the style chameleon has dressed them up to match her borderline preppy aesthetic afterward. And even on days when she wasn't in her tennis whites, the star teamed a pair of the brand's chunkier CloudTilt sneakers with baggy separates. Naturally, she's now the first celebrity ambassador for the brand.
Emily Ratajkowski's Puma Sneakers
Puma is a brand beloved by many a fashion insider—but model Emily Ratajkowski is of the brand's most devoted fans. She prefers their classic Easy Rider silhouette—in a trendy cherry red color—and the cult-famous Palermo Sneakers Dua Lipa is also a fan of.
