JULIA ROBERTS has once again made the case for keeping it simple — stepping out in Manhattan in classic white canvas sneakers that did all the heavy lifting without shouting for attention.

The actress was spotted walking around the city wearing a plaid dress, a crossbody bag and headphones, looking relaxed and effortlessly pulled together. The finishing touch was a pair of clean, understated white canvas shoes that kept the outfit polished rather than fussy.

The appeal of Roberts’ trainer choice is the minimal vibe: low-profile, neutral and easy to pair. It’s the kind of shoe that works with a dress just as easily as it does with denim, which is exactly why the look keeps coming back around.

For fans chasing the same aesthetic for less, a similar style is the Beneker Canvas Slip-on Sneakers, listed at $26 on Amazon at the time of publishing (with the usual caveat that prices can change).

The big selling point is practicality disguised as “proper” trainers: they’re secretly slip-ons, with hidden elastic panels doing the work while decorative laces keep the classic white-sneaker look. They’re also pitched as comfy, thanks to a plush, cushiony insole.

One five-star reviewer even said they wear them for long shifts: “As a healthcare professional, I’m always running and standing… these shoes get me through 12+ hours and miles of walking, with me still feeling like I’m walking on clouds.”
