Danielle Fishel being a big sneakerhead wasn't on my 2023 bingo card, but honestly, I'm not mad at it — Fishel's collection is pretty fire.
Fishel, best known for her role as the OG TV baddie Topanga on Boy Meets World, recently showcased her massive and rather impressive sneaker closet on TikTok.
In the TikTok, Fishel also revealed her top five favorite sneakers from last to first: Anna Wintour 3s, UNDEFEATED x Nike Dunk Low "5 On It", Aleali May x Air Jordan 1 Zoom CMFT "Califia," Nike Dunk Low "Safari Mix", and Melody Ehsani's Air Jordan 1 Mids (yep, the ones with the watches).
It's a solid top five, if you ask me. Though, I'm slightly biased as a fan of Aleali May and Melody Ehsani's Jordan team-ups. Taking the L on Ehsani's Mids still hurt, but not as much as the shoe's $1K resale value (anyone got a grand to spare, by the way?).
Also, I peeped some Union 2s, Reverse Panda Dunk, A Ma Maniére 3s, Laney 1s, and a host of other eye-catching pickups during a quick glimpse at what seemed like an endless wall of Fishel's shoes. The great wall of heat, if you will.
The actress has chef's kiss-level taste regarding sneakers, to say the least. It seems like Fishel has a thing for women-led designs — she owns quite a few pairs of May and Ehsani's collabs over the years, based on the TikTok. Extra points for women supporting women.
From the looks, Fishel isn't like these other rich and famous folk who flex their barely-worn, highly sought-after sneakers for the cool factor. Hers look properly aged and lived-in to perfection (as they should be!).
Topanga a true sneakerhead? Who knew? I sure didn't, but I'm more than here for it.
Hey, Mr. Affleck. If you ever need guidance on your new unexpected, sneaker journey, look to Fishel for pointers.
