See for Yourself: Gigi Hadid's It Sneakers Elevate Black Leggings

Gigi Hadid is a veteran supporter of the dad sneaker trend, getting plenty of use out of her Reebok Classic Leather Sneakers since becoming the face of the brand. But as proof of her loyalty to the enduring trend, she just wore a pair of dad sneakers from another brand, which is a purveyor of cool shoes: Acne Studios. Hadid chose the brand's Manhattan sneakers in black, from its Resort 18 collection. Despite that they're not exactly cheap as far as sneakers go, they're currently sold out or nearly sold out everywhere except for Acne Studios' own site (although the beige and white iterations are wiped out). That's enough to call them an It item in our book.
Hadid paired the trending dad sneakers with high-waisted black leggings with sheer panels, proving that the kicks instantly and effortlessly elevate black leggings, just as all good It sneakers do. So there you have it: Black leggings plus dad sneakers is an of-the-moment look that's Gigi Hadid–approved. Proof below.
