All the A-listers are wearing chunky sneakers lately — Jessica Alba included. The actress is the queen of athleisure, often spotted wearing two-piece lounge sets, fanny packs, baseball caps and yes, you guessed it, chunky sneakers. While she tends to gravitate toward brands like Converse and New Balance, she’s also a fan of specialty European brands, including Axel Arigato and Celine.
Alba’s most recent athleisure outfit consisted of a hoodie and sweatpants duo, oversized sunnies, a crossbody bag and a pair of retro, Italian-made Stella McCartney sneakers. While the Velcro Eclipse model is sold out everywhere, that’s actually a good thing — especially since a pair would set Us back $685.
Instead of shelling out two months of groceries for a single pair of kicks, we’re snagging these bestselling Fila shoes that look exactly like the designer pair Alba wore — but cost $634 less. The sneaker is just as chunky, luxe-looking and versatile. Better yet? It’s available to shop on Amazon!
Made of 100% leather material, the Amazon sneaker nails the classy aesthetic while remaining extra durable. Reflective detailing, a lightweight EVA midsole, a molded rubber outsole and an all-white logo are just a few highlights of this everyday find. Fila’s chunky platform is also nothing short of iconic — literally! — adding about two inches to your height and elevating your style tenfold. Plus, it’s unexpectedly light so it won’t weigh you down.

If you want a sporty, Alba-inspired look, try wearing this shoe with your favorite lounge set, rich mom sunglasses and over-ear headphones. It’s the ideal hot girl walking outfit! You can also style your sneakers with jeans and a blouse, or pair them with dresses, skirts and shorts. The sky’s the limit, so don’t be afraid to be bold. These chunky platforms guarantee a fabulous getup!
According to reviewers, the Fila pick is ultra-flattering, too. “I have no butt, and this larger profile shoe helps add more shape to my figure,” one reviewer wrote, calling them the “best clean white shoes’ “for “no-butt gals.”
“They definitely make a statement!” added another shopper. “I just got them and the first day I wore them, I got tons of compliments. Win-win!”
Some people do note that the style runs small, so you’ll want to order these babies in a half size up. White on white (on white) is the most versatile option, but there are nearly three dozen other colors to choose from if you’d prefer a little spice. At just $51, we’re considering grabbing two!
Oh, and don’t be surprised if you get endless compliments wherever you go in these chunky sneakers . . . or get mistaken for Jessica Alba.
