The 6 Classic Sneakers Celebs Always Wear With Jeans

Beyoncé and Jay Z, Mary-Kate and Ashley, peanut butter and jelly… Some things are just better when they come in pairs—jeans and sneakers included. There's arguably no other combo that's as timeless, but celebrities always manage to put fresh spins on jeans and sneakers. Hailey Baldwin, for instance, is a proponent of the super-baggy denim trend (which Jennifer Lopez is also a fan of) paired with Nike Air Force 1 Sneakers ($100)—an outfit combo that's ripe for copying.
On the other hand, the likes of Meghan Markle and Ashley Graham are carrying the flag for skinny jeans. Markle wore hers with another Hollywood-favorite pair of sneakers (with a vegan, sustainable twist): Adidas Stan Smiths designed by Stella McCartney. Graham also loves designer sneaks, as evidenced by the sleek Common Projects trainers she owns. Scroll down to shop the six classic sneakers celebrities always wear with jeans.
Nike Air Force 1
On Kendall Jenner: Paris Georgia Bella Bra ($225); Nike Air Force 1 Sneakers ($90); By Far Rachel Bag ($364)
Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Serena Williams are just some of the celebrity fans of the perennially classic Nike Air Force 1 Sneakers, which have been around since the '80s. What's old is new again.

Adidas Stan Smith

Nike Air Jordan

Leave it to Rihanna to make everyone want the most expensive, limited-edition version of the Nike Air Jordan Sneakers.

Last but not least, the affordable Superga Cotu Sneakers are a favorite of Karlie Kloss, Kate Middleton, and more. The canvas design is super comfortable and the $65 price tag hits a sweet spot for a lot of shoppers.
Next, Anna Wintour revealed the two trends that are about to be everywhere.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
