If your Labor Day weekend break was anything like mine, you played Where’s Waldo? with summertime 2025 fads. Flip- flops, Bermuda shorts, and gingham are normally in hefty turning. But this year, it was a lot more so an early-fall homecoming. I identified the brownish sneaker trend means greater than shoes– also on Selena Gomez.
On September 1, I curated an clothing out of unblemished summertime staples, starring Hailey Bieber- influenced bands. Gomez, on the various other hand, looked October- prepared in what Marie Claire‘s associate business editor, Brooke Knappenberger, called a “major fall shoe trend.” During a lakeside holiday with her family members (her girlfriend, Benny Blanco, consisted of), the A-lister debuted Adidas Spezial tennis shoes in the Earth Strata colorway. (Translation: cool-toned brownish with beige accents.)
At initially look, you may think the $110 instructors are Sambas– evaluating by the rounded toes, suede outside, and three-way red stripes. Their enhanced gum-soles are really a Spezial trademark. Extra- cushioned arcs and heels make them a favored choice for bigger feet, instead of the Sambas’ low-slung shape.

Boho- posh’s secondly (or 3rd) coming has actually triggered stars like Dua Lipa, Bella Hadid, and Lily Collins to exchange brownish shoes for black. They’re not the just one–Google searches for “brown sneakers” have actually struck a document high. So much, Adidas Sambas and Puma Speedcats have actually been leading the fee, yet with Gomez’s recommendation, the Spezials can be the period’s following leading design.
The remainder of Gomez’s clothing looked right out of Taylor Swift’s wardrobe, beginning with a pleated skirt. She disregarded the “no white after Labor Day” regulation with a white mini, which belonged in the 2025 United States Open stands.
Next, the Rare Beauty owner combined it with a candy striped environment-friendly container top, split beneath an big jean coat. (Perhaps she obtained it from Blanco’s luggage?) Its light-wash coating, unlike her tennis shoes, was so on-brand for summertime. A darker indigo color would certainly’ve leaned a lot more autumnal, as seen on Louis Vuitton and Khaite’s Fall 2025 paths. Black sunglasses, a claw clip, and her six-figure involvement ring ended up Gomez’s off-duty appearance.
While Sophie Turner and Olivia Rodrigo barely take their Adidas Sambas off, it’s been a min considering that Gomez went the sneaker course. (Multiple months, to be certain.) On the off possibility she does manage a set, they’re normally Nike orAlo Yoga In the 2010s, Gomez had an fondness for Adidas’s running footwear– the a lot more single assistance, the much better.
Most of her then-signature footwear, consisting of the Tubular and Alphabounce versions, are no more offered. You can still go shopping the Alo Recovery Mode Sneakers from herJan 2025 escape toAspen (Gomez has actually been significantly sneaker-free ever since.)
After 8 lengthy years, Gomez is an Adidas lady once more. Now that the Spezials have actually joined her collection, she’ll likely take them street-side in the coming days. They’re pleading to be used with among Gomez’s monochrome combinations.
