Sfoggiare
Explanation:
In contesti simili ho visto che "rock" viene utilizzato per indicare qualcosa che sta molto bene a chi la indossa, quindi credo che "sfoggiare" sia meglio del semplice "indossare".

ne indossa degnamente un paio


Explanation:
avevo pensato anche io a "sfoggiare" inizialmente e potrebbe sicuramente funzionare. Se vuoi considerare un'alternativa, ti propongo questa, tenendo conto che il significato di "rock a pair of sneakers" e' piu' attinente al modo in cui le si indossa che all'essere compiaciuto di indossarle,

Rocking: It means you are wearing something well! “I am rockin’ this new t-shirt!”
