Salomon has definitely been having a moment this year, with the XT-4 Og becoming a favorite among celebrities like Lily Collins, Rita Ora, and Whitney Port (Lily even wore a pair as Emily Cooper in season 4 of Emily in Paris).

The style is chunky and sporty with an outsole ready for rough terrain. The sneakers are unisex and while they might not be the sleekest of sneakers, they definitely have an unmistakeable aesthetic all their own.

Vans Classic Slip-On

The ultimate skater shoe is making a comeback! Not that it technically ever went away — Vans Classic Slip-On Sneakers have always around but now it seems like they might be ready for the spotlight again.

Gigi Hadid has pretty much been rocking them all summer long and Olivia Wilde and Emily Ratajkowski have also been spotted wearing the sneakers.

What, you didn’t think we were ready to ditch Adidas completely, did you? Sambas might be on their way out but the SL 72 is ready to shine. The original Adidas SL 72 debuted in — you guessed it — 1972. The “SL” stands for “super light” and the sneaker designed for agility and speed.

But if you’re not into running, no worries — the sneakers comes in a ton of great color combinations making it the perfect fashion statements.

All the big names have been spotted wearing the style including Bella Hadid, Suki Waterhouse, Maisie Williams, and Gigi Hadid, to name a few. (Bella was even set to front an Adidas campaign rocking the SL 72 before controversy struck).

Nike Free Metcon

If you want to look like you *actually* work out (or just need a pair of sneakers to compliment your athleisure outfit), the Nike Free Metcon Sneakers are going to be your new go-to.

The sneakers have a tough outersole with a cushy innersole making it super comfy for any activity.

Celebs who have embraced the style include Olivia Rodrigo, Lucy Hale, and Kaia Gerber. And while the shoes comes in multiple color combos, it’s the classic black-white combination that’s become a fan-favorite.
