All the Cool Girls in L.A. and NYC Are Wearing These Sneakers for Runyon Canyon Hikes and WSH Walks
Kaia Gerber is one of them.

During a recent trip between NYC and L.A., I noticed something that made me pause. No, it wasn't a buzzy billboard or a flash of paparazzi lights. It was sneakers—specifically On sneakers.
Yes, the Swiss brand has been around since 2010, but lately, it feels like it's enjoying a serious moment. In New York, I see them constantly on my morning walks along the West Side Highway. In L.A., it's the same story. At Runyon Canyon, they're practically part of the uniform. Another spotting that I wasn't present for but caught online was Kaia Gerber heading to a workout in a pair of On's Cloudnova X Sneakers, which she styled with flared leggings, a zip-up sweatshirt, and retro sunglasses. It was the kind of look that confirms what I've been suspecting: On is officially the sneaker brand of the cool-girl set.

Honestly, it makes perfect sense. On hits that elusive balance of fashion and function, providing sneakers for those who want to look sporty but also stylish. The silhouettes are clean, the technology is top-notch, and the sneakers move effortlessly between errands, exercise, and everything in between. With that said, keep scrolling to shop Gerber's exact pair of sneakers and more styles that will keep up wherever you go.
