Celebrities might be adventurous with their red carpet outfits, but for outdoor adventures, they tend to stick to the tried and true.
After all, whether scaling peaks or hitting the trail, even folks with access to mountains of designer duds prefer styles made with function top of mind.
And from Reese Witherspoon’s exact “Wild” boots to Gwyneth Paltrow’s hiking must-haves, there’s no need to trek all over to find stars’ trail-ready favorites.
Below, shop 14 sporty style standbys celebs won’t be telling to “take a hike” anytime soon.
Danner Mountain Light Cascade Hiking Boots
Want to (literally) walk a mile in Reese Witherspoon’s shoes? In the film “Wild” — based on Cheryl Strayed’s memoir about hiking the Pacific Crest Trail — the actress sported these Danner boots, which the brand made available for purchase after the film hit theaters.
lululemon Align High-Rise Pants
Plenty of stars are aligned when it comes to lululemon’s leggings — especially for hiking. Lucy Hale once hit the trail in these bestselling bottoms, while Ana de Armas selected the brand’s Align High-Rise Crop Leggings ($88) for a hike of her own in 2020.
J.Crew New Perfect Lightweight Jacket
Meghan Markle’s worn the original version of this on-sale jacket on multiple occasions, and paired it with Princess Diana’s Cartier watch for a hike in May 2023.
The North Face Summit Series Off-Width Pants
While Kim Kardashian sported the Supreme version of these Summit Series pants on a ride at Knott’s Berry Farm in 2021, the lightweight hiking pants are equally suited to summiting more than roller coasters.
Hoka Women’s Kaha 2 Gore-Tex Hiking Boots
While Gwyneth Paltrow once praised an $8,900 necklace for hiking, not all of her outdoor must-haves cost thousands. The Goop maven included an older version of these Hoka boots in a “GP Picks” article on her site, writing, “I’m obsessed with Hoka boots, especially this pair.”
Columbia Women’s Saturday Trail Stretch Pants
Looking for gear designed for both function and fashion? Hailey Bieber proved Columbia’s clothing has the latter when she paired pants from its Opening Ceremony collaboration with a Gucci T-shirt in 2018.
And when it comes to functionality, these adventure-ready pants come with both rain-and-stain repellency and UPF 50 sun protection, ideal for long days on the go.
Alo Yoga High Waist Airlift Legging
Celebrities are obsessed with Alo Yoga styles for workouts of all kinds — and hiking is no exception. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley took her Airlifts for a hike in March 2020, pairing them with a matching hoodie.
Woolrich Retro Hiking Boots
Whether you’re hiking “Out of the Woods” or into them, consider picking up a pair of hiking boots from Taylor Swift-loved Woolrich. While the wool-paneled style she sported for an LA hike in 2016 is no longer available, consider vintage-inspired alternatives like this one instead.
Oliver Peoples Finley Sunglasses
Even while getting some peace and quiet outdoors, stars still love their quiet luxury looks. Sofia Richie wore these celeb-loved Oliver Peoples sunnies while hiking with her sister, Nicole Richie, in 2021.
Hoka Clifton 9 Sneakers
While not suited to the most treacherous terrain, these trendy kicks from celeb-loved Hoka are perfect for more low-key walks and hikes; Reese Witherspoon and Gwyneth Paltrow have both worn their Clifton 9s while hitting the trails in California.
Apple Watch Series 8
Outdoor adventures don’t have to mean going fully off the grid. While Witherspoon and Jennifer Garner both brought older versions of the Apple Watch on hikes in 2021, this one is currently at its lowest price in 30 days on Amazon — and features activity tracking for making sure every step (literally) counts on your hike.
Alo Yoga All Day Tank
While Witherspoon’s gear arsenal also includes a sold-out Alo Yoga Tank — which she matched to her trusty Hokas in 2021 — this current bestseller offers a similar lightweight feel for hotter hiking days.
The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket
While the North Face Nuptse has popped up everywhere from Lakers games to A-list dates, Jamie Chung nodded to the label’s outdoorsy roots when she paired hers with Columbia hiking boots in 2021.
