Kendall Jenner's Non-TSA-Friendly Airport Shoes

last updated 13 August 2019

Kendall Jenner is no stranger to polarizing airport looks. (Remember those naked pants?) For her latest travel look, she went for something a little more borrowed-from-the-boys than the sheer pants and top, courtesy of a denim jacket, tee, and track pants. Jenner's outfit seemed comfortable and appropriate for air travel, unlike many of the dressy looks that celebs choose (we're looking at you, Victoria Beckham). But then we saw her feet, which were clad with strappy stiletto sandals. While they added a sleek feminine touch to the sporty look, we're not sure there's a more difficult shoe style to wear to the airport. They're not exactly made for trekking down long terminals and getting them off and back on will delay the process of making it to your gate on time. In fact, there are photos of Jenner removing the heels after setting off the alarm when going through security.

Our verdict? Although Jenner looked incredibly cool (per usual), unless you want to be stopped by TSA, you might want to pair your travel look with footwear that's a bit more convenient and comfortable, like backless mules or slip-on sneakers.
