Kate Middleton Made a Sensible Choice Wearing These $37 Sneakers for Cricket Game in Pakistan

Today, on the third leg of their royal tour of Pakistan, Prince William and Kate Middleton arrived in Lahore and made a few stops, including one at the National Cricket Academy.

The Duchess of Cambridge wore a white Gul Ahmed-designed “shalwar kameez” of tunic and loose trousers, which is the national dress of Pakistan. She began her morning ahead of the sporty outing wearing $312 Lucie pumps by J.Crew but switched to sensible — and very affordable — $37 sneakers by British label Hampton Canvas when she stepped onto the field.

Royal fans may recall that when Middleton joined a cricket match during the 2016 royal visit to India, she wore a pair of wedge sandals. For this trip, she went with a more practical choice: flexible sneakers.

The royal duo had a packed to-do list today, including a visit to the Badshahi Mosque, where they attended an interfaith meeting, and a tour of the Shaukat Memorial Cancer Hospital, which William’s late mother Princess Diana visited in 1991.
