In April 2021, Alessandra Ambrosio was photographed across Los Angeles in a series of casual off-duty looks that highlighted the sneakers she repeatedly reached for between workouts, errands, and shopping trips.
👟 Jump to a Sneaker Look:
While her activewear varied from day to day, her footwear choices followed a clear pattern, ranging from collaborative New Balance x Casablanca 327 sneakers to minimalist Common Projects styles. The outfits offer a useful look at how the longtime model paired athletic and casual pieces with comfortable everyday shoes.

Leaving a workout session in Los Angeles, Ambrosio wore one of several athleisure looks featured in this period, pairing bright activewear with statement sneakers.
She teamed an apple-green Alo Yoga “Splendor” bra top with white moto leggings, creating a high-contrast workout look that allowed her black-and-white sneakers to stand out.

The standout footwear was a pair of black-and-white New Balance x Casablanca 327 sneakers, a collaboration that helped transform the retro-inspired silhouette into one of the defining fashion sneakers of the early 2020s.
Combining New Balance’s running heritage with Casablanca’s luxury-sportswear aesthetic, the partnership attracted celebrity fans and helped introduce the 327 to a broader fashion audience.

Crafted from leather and suede with perforated detailing, the sneakers feature Casablanca branding on the tongue and the oversized “N” logo that helped secure New Balance’s place among the world’s most recognizable shoe brands.
The lightweight foam midsole and treaded outsole preserve the model’s athletic roots, while its streamlined profile makes it a natural fit for the off-duty wardrobes of celebrities ranging from Alessandra Ambrosio to Sarah Jessica Parker and Scarlett Johansson.

As of June 2026, the New Balance 327 White Black (Style MS327CWB) continues to trade above its original $100 retail price on the resale market. Recent StockX sales for the largest recorded size (CM 31) have generally ranged from about $139 to $151, with most transactions clustering in the mid-$140s. While an outlier sale reached $227 in March 2026, the broader trend suggests a stable resale value of roughly 40% to 50% above retail.
2. New Balance 997H Sneakers With White Alo Sweats
Earlier that week in West Hollywood, Ambrosio switched from workout gear to an all-white casual look while stopping by Bottega Veneta.

Core releases such as the White ($110), Light Aluminum Team Away Grey ($88), Team Away Grey Pigment ($123), and Navy Grey Matter ($132) trade close to or only modestly above their original retail prices, reflecting steady but not highly speculative demand.
3. Common Projects Achilles Sneakers With Denim and a Color-Block Sweater
On another outing in Los Angeles, Ambrosio traded activewear for a casual knit-and-denim combination anchored by suede sneakers.
She paired her chunky knit sweater with Mother “The Pony Boy Chew” straight-cut denim jeans, featuring fixed cuffs, a raw hem, and distressed knees.

Core colorways such as the Original Achilles White ($321), Original Achilles Black ($287), and Original Achilles Grey ($269) remain among the most accessible options, though all trade well above the price range of mainstream lifestyle sneakers.
