Here's the thing about flared jeans: They do a pretty damn good job of hiding your shoes. So when Kendrick Lamar took the stage for the Super Bowl halftime show last night, it wasn't easy to deduce exactly what he had on his feet. (Plus, we were having trouble prying our attention away from his denim.)

If that’s the case, take a page from Kendrick and get the right size, because one of the reasons Kendrick was able to make it work is because they are the perfect length to float above the midsole of his kicks imperceptibly.

The Grammy Award-winning rapper performed wearing a custom leather Martine Rose Varsity jacket that read "Gloria" across the front, a black shirt, Nike Air DT Max '96 sneakers and a pair of Celine Flared Surf Jeans in summer dazed wash denim.
