Ivanka Trump traveled to North Carolina to assist with relief efforts in the wake of the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. She was seen at the Hickory Regional Airport on Oct. 2, where she helped give out Starlink devices from SpaceX to bring Internet connection to those affected by the storm.
Hurricane Helene impacted hundreds of thousands of people across the southeast United States last week, resulting in a death toll approaching 200; almost one million people are still living without power, and western North Carolina was hit particularly hard by the storm.
$90
To engage in relief efforts, Trump kept her outfit simple in a cropped white and green collared sweater and blue jeans; the striped sweater featured a quarter zip closure and raised collar. The outfit was completed with a pair of brown and white Nike sneakers, which strongly resembled the brandโs Killshot 2 style. The sneaker features a one-inch tan rubber sole and an upper with white and light gray leather in addition to beige suede; the shoe is secured with white laces. From Net-a-Porter, a pair retails for $90.
Another public figure to have recently worn the Killshot 2 is Matt Damon, who stepped out in a pair with a navy blue Swoosh while promoting โThe Instigatorsโ alongside Casey Affleck this past summer. The shoe is also notable for being part of a collaboration between Nike and J. Crew which resulted in sold out inventory. The shoe was recently reimagined in a design featuring black leather with white stitching and a fold-over tongue.
The white sneaker remains a timeless, versatile footwear option regardless of gender. It easily matches an outfit while providing practical comfort. Read FNโs picks for the best white sneakers for women, a list of 21 shoes ranging from Nike Air Force 1s to Adidas Sambas to Allbirds Wool Runners.
