Timothée Chalamet’s ’50s Look Gets a Modern Twist with Salomon Sneakers in Marty Supreme
XNY - STAR MAX
In the upcoming Marty Supreme, Timothée Chalamet plays ping-pong legend Marty Reisman. While the movie is set in the 1950s, Chalamet’s style on set blends period menswear with modern twists. From oversized suits to striped shirts, the actor rocks timeless looks in classic cuts, but what catches attention is his choice of Salomon XA Pro 3D V9 sneakers—high-tech running shoes paired with vintage-inspired outfits. The contrast between the retro costumes and futuristic footwear shows how Chalamet can seamlessly merge old and new in his fashion choices.

Known for their rugged design, the Salomon XA Pro 3D V9 sneakers add a contemporary edge to Chalamet’s on-set wardrobe. The shoes feature tightly-knit mesh, durable rubber, and a chunky sole built for all types of terrain, ideal for both mountain trails and film sets. These shoes complement the actor’s 1950s ensemble with an unexpected yet effortless blend of vintage elegance and functional comfort. It’s a fusion of fashion eras that only someone like Chalamet could pull off.

Marty Reisman, the real-life inspiration for the character, was known not only for his athletic prowess but also his sharp sense of style. The film’s setting in post-war New York is reflected in Chalamet’s oversized suiting, exaggerated collars, and wide ties, harkening back to the mid-century era. Chalamet was spotted on set in various looks—from brown pinstriped suits to sleek overcoats—all paying homage to the fashion-forward ping-pong hustler. The distinct oversized tailoring worn by Chalamet could easily pass for modern designs from Saint Laurent or Bottega Veneta, reinforcing the film’s potential as a menswear showcase.
Given that Marty Supreme is directed by Josh Safdie, the mastermind behind Uncut Gems, it’s no surprise that the film promises to be a stylish affair. Safdie, who transformed Adam Sandler into an unexpected style icon in Uncut Gems, seems poised to do the same with Chalamet in this sports drama. While Marty Supreme is shaping up to be a gripping story about a ping-pong champion, it’s also destined to leave a mark on the fashion world, with Chalamet once again leading the charge in trendsetting menswear.
