Yes, it’s fall, but that doesn’t mean we’re itching to wear clunky boots 24/7. Sometimes, we crave something sleeker, classier and more practical for daily wear, which is why Julia Roberts‘ cool-girl sneakers caught our eye. They’re so much chicer than boots, and even though they probably cost hundreds, we found a shockingly affordable twin on Amazon.

Spotted strolling around Paris, the actress wore a slouchy brown blazer, black lounge pants and elevated black sneakers, an outfit that read expensive from across la rue. The sneakers stole the show, with a polished leather-looking upper and a crisp white sole. This Amazon version has the same proportions for presumably much less than Roberts paid, and get this: It’s secretly a slip-on.

These Marc Joseph New York Robinson Street Sneakers capture the clean silhouette, contrast style and sophisticated aesthetic that Roberts worked in Paris. The faux-leather upper gives them a dressed-up finish, so they pair well with tailored trousers, midi skirts and straight-leg jeans — also lounge pants, if you want to copy Roberts.

Better yet, the padded footbed keeps them comfortable through long days, and the flexible rubber sole adds grip without the athletic vibe. But perhaps the best part is the hands-free design. You can slip these sneakers on without bending down, a small detail that matters when you’re bundled in layers.

One happy fan summed up the appeal: “The Marc Joseph New York Hands-Free Slip-On Sneakers strike a great balance between comfort and style — sleek enough to look polished but not flashy or over the top. The hands-free slip-on design makes them incredibly convenient.”

Roberts’ approach to fashion means high-quality basics, a great outer layer and footwear that’s comfy and timeless, so this sophisticated sneaker style fits her formula perfectly. Ladies, it’s our sign to swap basic ankle boots for this ultra-chic upgrade!
