Klum is rarely seen wearing footwear that isn’t supported by a heel. Last week, she showcased leather knee-high boots on Instagram for a “Germany’s Next Top Model” promotion. Her most recent red carpet look featured black satin pointed-toe pumps at the Fashion Trust U.S. Awards in April. Just a few days earlier, she was seen arriving at the “America’s Got Talent” studio in silver metallic pumps.

About the Shoes

The model slipped on a pair of white sneakers for the occasion. Primarily covered by her wide-leg jeans, the leather shoes featured a rubber sole and perforations on the toe box. An engraved detailing sat on the side of the lace up closure.

Several stars have been seen wearing sneakers this month including Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who wore a Dior pair during Formula One in Miami last weekend.

Sneakers

The first style of sneakers dates back to 1876, when England-based New Liverpool Rubber Company created the first rubber-soled shoes. Since then, the sneaker industry has become a phenomenon with brands like Nike and Adidas creating a following that allows them to sell out styles within seconds. Along with the rubber sole, the basic composition of a sneaker relates to the lace up closure and closed silhouette. The retail market is saturated with several reinterpretations in various materials and supportive levels.
