Basically I'm 44 petite v casual dresser. I have wide feet and bunions so do struggles to find comfy shoes. I wear skinny jeans a lot and would love some fashion trainers to go with them but I don't know where to start!

Adidas Superstar or Stan Smith Smile

nike roshes

Paddingtonthebear · 01/10/2016 20:58

I've got Adidas Honey lows, Vans skater high tops, Adidas Hamburgs and an old pair of Adidas Gazelle. These are all super comfy, I have bony feet. Found Converse very uncomfortable and Nike just too chunky

Paddingtonthebear · 01/10/2016 20:59

I have small feet so I generally get the kids size which are cheaper Grin

Superga?

funnyfoursome · 01/10/2016 21:25

Ooh thanks everyone I do like the superga metallics!

Can't beat a pair of New Balance!
But also agree with Superga Smile

raspberrysuicide · 01/10/2016 21:29

waits for someone to recommend Sketchers

PNGirl · 01/10/2016 21:55

Another vote for Adidas Superstars and Superga!

KARMAisaBtch · 01/10/2016 21:57

Got a pair of these, kinda like it with skinny jeans. Smile

Sketchers = heat Grin

Perhaps start off with a simple pair of Superga's/converse op? They're a good day to day shoe. Check out Office/Aso's for a wide selection.

Usually a Converse wearer but having bought a pair of Superga over the summer they are so much more comfortable!

PotatoBread · 01/10/2016 22:41

Not everyone's cup of tea but I have these Woden ones for when I fancy a change from my Stan Smiths. They are def a lot more comfortable than adidas, converse and superga's

Woden

Bibs2014 · 01/10/2016 22:51

Adidas Superstars!

Nearlyadoctor · 02/10/2016 07:35

I never had a pair until this summer and bought the Superga metallics in Silver - absolutely love them.
If you buy from White company AM030 gives 25% off!

LuckySantangelo1 · 02/10/2016 07:42

Superga are so comfy. Converse I find really hard on my feet.

raspberrysuicide · 02/10/2016 14:32

I find converse to be quite narrow and really squash my feet and give me bruised toenails!
I've never heard of superga before but the look lovely x

Honesttodog · 02/10/2016 16:03

Love the look of the Woden, am off to investigate further!

Buttwing · 02/10/2016 16:07

Stan smiths I live in mine. I wouldn't go for converse (even though I have loads of pairs) they just seem very boring now. Every mum in the world seems to have them!

ShutTheFuckUpBarbara · 02/10/2016 16:07

On the Adidas website you can design your own Stan Smiths, Superstars, Gazelles, etc. They are pricier than the standard version though.

The concept is very addictive too; I have waisted a lot of time at work creating all sorts of cool trainersBlush

fiorentina · 02/10/2016 19:48

Other Stories usually stock the cooler trainers stories.com is worth a look, they had some great ones when I was in there the other week.

BatonRouge · 02/10/2016 21:13

Just checked out Woden - always interesting to find new trainer brands as I'm a sneaker head Smile Bit fashion forward for my taste - prefer streetwear ie Air max 1's, Blazers...... Appreciate we all have different tastes.
