New trainer suggestions

Hi folks,

I’m going on holiday somewhere warm soon and I’m looking for some new trainers. Hoping you good people might suggest something smart, handsome but casual for a dad in his late 30s. I was thinking along the lines of some adidas Samba in white and black or adidas Spezials.

Looking forward to your suggestions.

I was going go say Gazelles, but Sambas are similar. Can’t go wrong with white/black or white/navy.

I love Adidas gazelles. I have my eye on the women's ones.
Also Nike Dunk Lo Pro.

You can never go wrong with Nike Air Force 1’s

Depends where you’re going, if somewhere dry & dusty, I’d be wary about white shoes

If you’re leaning toward Sambas or Spezials, you might also like the Onitsuka Tiger GSM or Puma Super Liga. Both have that same clean, low-profile vibe that works well in warm weather.

I was comparing models recently and even looked up the Addidas samba price in pakistan while checking different colorways, which reminded me why Sambas remain such a solid everyday choice.

Surely they have had their day? DD wore them to school 10 years ago, are they still fashion?

Still seem to be in, my ds wears them to school and I got major Mum points when I got the Air Force 1’s which are a collab with Supreme and good enough with an animal print tick on the side. His friends came over to wear I was standing watching a match just to see the trainers, my son was very impressed with my choice and he is majorly into his trainer and has an extensive collection.
