12 Sub-$100 Sneakers the World's Best Dressed Men Swear By

Don’t miss GQ’s definitive guide to everything kicks—from the types of sneakers always worth copping to the best ways to score the next hot drop.

You might think being a professional famous person means eschewing cheap sneakers and stepping out in only the finest footwear, in shoes made of leather so supple A-list wattage is practically required to wear ‘em. Not so. See, at GQ it’s our business to stay abreast of what stylish men of note are wearing out and about on a daily basis, and in the midst of our ongoing investigation we made a startling discovery. Turns out, famous people like a bargain as much as any average Joe—hell, maybe more. How else to explain the surfeit of celebrities who consistently swear by one signature sneaker, rarely leaving the house—to sit front row at fashion week, to run errands, to mingle with other ludicrously wealthy people—without wearing them. Even the most famous men in the world are susceptible to the appeal of cheap sneakers, the type of widely available shoes sneakerheads lovingly call GRs, or “general releases”. All of which is good news for you and your bank account. Because the sneakers we’re talking about here are almost always in stock and almost never more than $100, which means the only thing separating you from Hollywood royalty might just be a shockingly affordable pair of kicks.

Perhaps you’ve heard the Samba is having a moment. Well, few people have done more to put the sneaker back on the map than A$AP Nast, the Prada-obsessed, very stylish member of a Prada-obsessed, very stylish group of friends. Nast wears Sambas with just about everything— voluminous tailoring, old-school Harrington jackets, cocooning overcoats—and this summer, so should you.
