Live from New York, It's Pedro Pascal's New Balances

The sneakers he wore for the 'SNL' afterparty are just under P6,000.

Picture this: It's a Saturday night in New York, and you're going to the SNL afterparty, one of the most coveted tickets in the city. Bad Bunny is going to be there, so you obviously have to dress to impress. What do you wear? If you're Pedro Pascal, the answer is a pair of New Balance 237s.

Pedro Pascal is a certifiable street style god, in my books. His style is approachable and effortlessly cool. Whether he's donning a rugged jacket or a vintage tee or a sick pair of kicks, he's keeping things casual, yet never too casual. And after appearing as a surprise guest on Saturday Night Live this weekend, he hit the cast afterparty in what very few could get away with: dad shoes.

Paired with a brown leather bomber jacket, a sweater, and jeans, Pedro Pascal's 237s create an impression far different than loafers or dress shoes would in the same situation. They exude ease—they're are clearly comfy as hell—but also have a sporty, retro appeal. Pascal's feature a wide marigold N logo on the sides, with green and purple panels on the upper. The 237 comes in so many variations, though, you can find a pair to go with anything. All-white if you're feeling minimalist; khaki and pastel orange if you're feeling inspired; dusty mauve if you're going for trendy; or deep olive, tan, red, and bright yellow, if you feel like an A-list actor who just made an SNL cameo.

Really, if there's any style tip I'm inclined to follow, it's one that A) makes my life a little bit easier/comfier, and B) comes from Pedro Pascal. Taking a page from his book, I'm dressing up my sneakers now. Let SNL know I'm waiting on my afterparty invite for next weekend—and I already have my footwear picked out.
