You can do anything in sneakers.

Supermodel Chanel Iman and New York Giant Sterling Shepard proved just that last night, when they got engaged wearing kicks. The 24-year-old football star got down on one knee in black and white high-tops, while the former Victoria’s Secret angel rocked Vans Old Skool sneakers and a fluffy white embellished jacket for the special occasion.

The Iman took to Instagram to share the moment with family, friends and fans, showing off a rooftop view of New York with countless candles surrounding the pair.

She captioned the shot: “A night full of tears of happiness. I’m beyond excited to spend the rest of my life with you @sterl_shep3 you are my soulmate, my best friend, my everything! Can’t wait to be your Mrs.”

The couple have been dating for just over a year, after meeting at former teammate Victor Cruz’s birthday party last November. “I walked up to her and bought her a drink and it was over after that,” Shepard previously told People of that night.
