I like 'em. They're very street.

ItalianJob · 03/05/2006 09:22

a bit overly decorated for trainers. they look like a kid's craft project!

JonesTheSteam · 03/05/2006 09:22

I like them - just wouldn't pay £49 for them!!!!!!!

oliveoil · 03/05/2006 09:23

Do you all wear Hitech or M&S own brand?

With leggings no doubt.

JonesTheSteam · 03/05/2006 09:23

Actually that's not true.

I don't have £49 to spend on trainers!!!!

Am just Envy really!!!!

oliveoil · 03/05/2006 09:25

I don't have £49 either, they are from my catalogue and pay Jan 2007!

Adult Lelli Kellies??

TinyGang · 03/05/2006 09:30

They're ok, but jeez expensive!

I just don't look at trainers and appreciate them the way some people can. I wouldn't know Primarks own from Nike even if it had a large flashing arrow over the cool pairBlush

Can't you get some cheap ones and stick some shiny gems on them - my dd will assistWinkGrin

don't like the bling I have to say

but I do applaud you for the trainers. I'm looking for funky trainers and all I can find are bleeding flipflop thongy things which I can't wear with socks and are COLD

please supply pictures of better trainers Smile

These are v trendy and if you don't like them you can get ye to Asda

OP posts:
Cappucino · 03/05/2006 09:46

oooh! ooh! I like these! I do!

thank you!

NotQuiteCockney · 03/05/2006 09:47

I am getting v fed up with interesting women's trainers, as a) I live in trainers and b) they never come in my bloody size. I'm stuck with men's trainers, which are generally much less funky. \link{http://www.g23.com/products/2/10/MF/4/588\These} are pretty, but I have 'em and they're really bloody uncomfortable.

oliveoil · 03/05/2006 09:47

There is nothing wrong with George at Asda - I am currently wearing their jeans - but trainers must be a brand imo.

AllieBongo · 03/05/2006 09:49

liking them! a smart trainer so I don't have to wear excrutiatingly painful ballet pumps!

Cappucino · 03/05/2006 09:49

notquitecockney they look like the kind of thing they dress zombies in in Dr Who

Cappucino · 03/05/2006 09:50

ballet pumps - again - no socks

Sad
AllieBongo · 03/05/2006 09:51

i'm getting a blister just thinking about them

oliveoil · 03/05/2006 09:51

NQC - not liking those

I will find my Diesel ones for you, they are nice

OP posts:
NotQuiteCockney · 03/05/2006 09:51

Capuccino, you don't get it - those are quite pretty and cute for men's trainers. I wouldn't wear white blingy things (white not an option, feet big enough already), but I would consider girly comfortable trainers in a decent size if anybody made 'em.

NotQuiteCockney · 03/05/2006 09:52

Diesel boy's trainers, or girl's?

Hmm, technically we are being Sensible About Money at the moment, thanks to insane building works. But new trainer ideas always good for when we are Not Sensible again.
