Jennifer Lawrence just swapped out her go-to Sambas for a new adidas pair – and I'm convinced they’re going to be the ‘it’ trainer for spring

Jennifer Lawrence in New York City on 6 April, 2026.

You can’t go anywhere without seeing a pair (or two, or three) of adidas Sambas. The trainer has reached icon status, and it’s no surprise why; the easy-going style is the perfect shoe to pair with pretty much any outfit. But Jennifer Lawrence, who has long loved the Samba as a finishing touch to her signature low-key, polished style, just swapped out her pair for a new adidas style – and we’re expecting it to take off as a trendy alternative to the trainer that’s everywhere right now.

Spotted out in New York earlier this month, she tapped into this year’s growing love for low-profile trainer silhouettes by stepping out in a pair of adidas’ Tokyo sneakers. With a slim sole, organic, rounded shape and low, agile design, they have a decidedly retro feel as well as a sporty and sleek edge that sits in contrast with the more structured look of Sambas. Yet they still feel just as wearable and versatile, making them an easy swap if you’re looking for a new go-to shoe for spring.
