Jaden Smith was spotted yesterday chilling out on the streets of New York. The “Icon” rapper took the streets of the Big Apple by storm, bringing his fashion a-game in a pair of light blue sneakers.

The star’s pick featured a chunky dad sneaker composition with mesh and leather uppers and matching light blue lace-up closures. White writing could be seen scrawled on the sides while coordinating white rubber soles rounded out the set, offering a non-slip feel.

Jaden Smith, sneakers, pearls, camo, street style, light blue, New York — Jaden Smith is seen in Tribeca on Aug. 25 in New York.

The silhouette is not unlike the collaborative pair Smith brought to light with the help of New Balance back in 2020. Like Smith’s recent sneaker choice, the Vision Racer combines fashion and utility, equipped with lots of style and performance details that make the sneaker perfect for just about any occasion. The performer’s collaborative footwear has since been released in a variety of colorways including neutral gray, neon yellow and hot pink.

A lover of streetwear, the “Skate Kitchen” star sported classic camo-printed trousers updated with pearl embellishments, giving the grungy silhouette a dainty quality. On top, Smith sported a cotton t-shirt in light pink with neon pink trim layered underneath a puffy black militaristic vest. Dressing up his look, the musician layered on lots of jewelry including a heavy chain fixed with charms, a gold watch and matching chain bracelets.

Smith’s style ranges from skate-inspired to utterly futuristic. His style can be described as casual but elevated, often featuring a slew of sneakers and boots by Louis Vuitton, Nike and Vans — though Smith has worn two different sneakers on multiple occasions.

The “Karate Kid” star is also a top figure in the fashion world; aside from founding his own clothing brand, he’s also starred in Louis Vuitton and Levi’s campaigns, launched collaborations with New Balance and attended Fashion Month shows for brands like Hood by Air and Gypsy Sport.
