Lucy Hale Is the Latest Celebrity to Update Their Athleisure Wardrobe With Hoka Sneakers
Lucy Hale was spotted out in Los Angeles on Tuesday, effortlessly combining comfort and style in her off-duty look. Wearing a black tank top, white sweatpants, and a baseball cap, she epitomized laid-back chic while on a run. For footwear, she opted for the Hoka x Free People collaboration Clifton 9 Sneakers, which launched in the Spring.
The Clifton 9 Sneakers, born from a collaboration between 2023 FN Achievement Award Brand of the Year winner Free People, are making waves for their blend of performance and fashion-forward design. Known for their maximalist cushioning and lightweight feel, these sneakers are a favorite among both athletes and style-savvy celebrities like Olivia Wilde, who is also often seen out in LA in her Hoka sneakers in the Bondi 8 style.
The trend of incorporating athletic shoes into everyday outfits is not new, but the Clifton 9’s unique appeal lies in its ability to bridge the gap between high-performance sportswear and street style.
This particular sneaker model is renowned for its superior comfort and support, making it an ideal choice for those who are always on the move. The Clifton 9’s distinctive silhouette features an exaggerated sole that not only provides unmatched cushioning but also adds a trendy, elevated look to any ensemble. For Hale, this means her legs appear longer, and her overall outfit gains a touch of sporty sophistication.
Last month, the trending sneaker brand launched its first flagship store, a sprawling 9,000-square-foot space at 579 Fifth Avenue. Situated just off 47th Street, this new location replaces a pop-up two blocks south and complements a smaller shop in the Flatiron district.
