Mmm, Autograph Leopard Trainers - Are they keepers?

Excuse the crap photography. Fell in love with online pics. Now in real life I'd appreciate the S&B verdict on whether they are worth hanging on to or not.

I'm a SAHM and my youngest has SN so practicality is important. I usually wear jeans and a lot of black and grey (but aspire to looking a little bit stylish)!

Thanks in advance.

I like the 2nd pair that you posted OP. Where are they from?

imjessie · 07/02/2017 17:36

I prefer the air and grace ones , I've got some fab river island leopard pumps I wear all the time .

Lol pieface I shall listen to you when I post about lipstick

EggsEleven I just came across them through Amazon.

Postage is £24.99, sheesh, forget that.

Just ordered these after trawling the internet. They're a bit more €€ but delivery is free.

I loved the Dune ones but thought they were a bit bright. I couldn't get the Puma ones in my size. The Stan Smiths were gorgeous but the cost of postage brought the price up to a silly figure.

If these are a bit "bright" I will put black laces in them and see how they look.

Are they much better than the M&S ones which are being returned? Thanks for putting me straight btw.

I liked them on the shelf in a size 4. On me, in an 8 thy looked absolutely ridiculous.

EggsEleven · 10/02/2017 14:46

I like the ones you've ordered OP. Fingers crossed that they look nice on.

loveliesbleeding1 · 10/02/2017 14:53

The m&s ones are very plastic looking,but the ones you've ordered look great,will you come back and model them when they come,please?

MartinRohdesBellybuttonFluff · 16/02/2017 14:33

loveliesbleeding1, just for you....

The new leopard trainers I ordered (in lieu of the Autograph ones in the OP) arrived today. Apologies for yet another bad model / photographer combo.

I definitely prefer these ones, now I can go and channel my inner Bet Lynch Wink

Thank you S&B gurus Flowers

OOh I like those (your new ones, not the M&S)

Where did they come from?

MartinRohdesBellybuttonFluff · 16/02/2017 14:44

They are from ASOS (Selected Femme).

Justifying price with this simple mathematical equation:

Returned Autograph Trainers + Returned dodgy buys from Boden sale = Refund > Price of the above Smile

those are nicer than the others.

Might they look better with white laces?

MartinRohdesBellybuttonFluff · 16/02/2017 14:55

Thanks, yes I'd say so. There are white laces in the box too.

OP posts:
HeyYouYesYou · 16/02/2017 15:02

The new ones are definitely nicer.

Not my taste personally though I could probably stand to be a bit less boring but they are a pleasing shape unlike the M&S ones. I say go for it if you like them.

HeyYouYesYou · 16/02/2017 15:02

Show us a pic with the white laces OP? Smile

MartinRohdesBellybuttonFluff · 16/02/2017 15:22

White laces....

They look more balanced in the marks picture. The are very short in the toe area which gives them an odd shape. I agree with everyone else. There are nicer out there.

neveradullmoment99 · 16/02/2017 15:57

Ahh the new ones. They look nice with the white laces.

TondelayaDellaVentamiglia · 16/02/2017 21:42

that's better..balances out the white sole. Perfect!
