When you see Hailey Bieber out and about in New York or Los Angeles, she's typically wearing an outfit that blurs the lines between comfort and sophistication: vintage Levi's, a white T-shirt, an oversized jacket, and a pair of geek-chic loafers on her feet, often with socks. Bieber is devoted to the humble loafer, but her latest casual look swapped the classic footwear for a comfy sneaker. Let's discuss.
The Rhode founder and model was snapped on a coffee run in Beverly Hills wearing a very relatable day off outfit of a loose black sweater over workout shorts, paired with a red baseball cap, a black Saint Laurent shoulder bag, skinny black Saint Laurent sunglasses, and her ever-present diamond "B" bubble necklace.
On her feet were her favorite white socks, but instead of loafers, Bieber was wearing a pair of black and gray Nike Air Max 95 sneakers with the subtlest touch of orange, just in time for Halloween. Hailey Bieber in athletic shoes? Stop the presses!
OK, OK, we're exaggerating a bit. Bieber does often wear sneakers, despite the fact that she is forever tied to loafers in our brains. Back in 2020, Bieber and her pal Kendall Jenner were all about the Nike Air Force One, and earlier this year, she was snapped wearing a controversial, unreleased pair of Nike Shox Mule MR4 in an orange and yellow gradient colorway. That being said, loafers tend to take up the most real estate in her street-style wardrobe nowadays, as evidenced by the matching pair she and husband Justin wore around their five-year anniversary. But when your feet are begging for the comfort and cushion of a sneaker, nothing else will do — especially on a low-key day of running errands and exploring your neighborhood.
