Which Superga trainers should I buy?

38 replies

Victoria100 · 09/04/2018 17:12

I've been looking for a new pair of superga trainers, to replace my rather tired silver metallic paid! I saw a rose gold pair in store today that was their classic plain trainer with the white laces. Then I saw these subtler rose gold pair, fully sequinned with satin laces! I actually really like them both...But I know they're not for everyone...are they really awful and should I buy something else?

I love the first pair. My dd aged 15 is desperate for a pair of those.

LolitaLempicka · 09/04/2018 17:14

I don’t think the sequin ones look as nice in real life. (Although I was very tempted by the teal ones) they are also not as versatile.

First ones are lovely, I need some new casual shoes, they may be the ones!

TroubledLichen · 09/04/2018 17:15

The first pair- love them! I have the exact same ones in silver (and am now thinking I need rose gold too). The sequins on the second pair look a bit odd and slightly like fish scales to me.

Im so torn between them...I realise they're not to everyone's taste but I love both !

My heart I still saying seauins, but my head is saying the plain rose gold ones. I know the sequin ones will get ruined so quickly 😕

How about both? Wink They're both on nearly 40% off at Office! I literally just tried the sequins on and they are much nicer in real life!

MrsMaryMooFace · 09/04/2018 17:19

The plainer rose gold ones are £16.50 in some sizes on Amazon Smile

Victoria100 · 09/04/2018 17:20

Really? I'm a size 4...I'll buy them if they're 16.50 in a size 4!

OP posts:
Victoria100 · 09/04/2018 17:22

They're £40 on amazon...@weallhavedreams thank you! I'll check on office

MrsMaryMooFace · 09/04/2018 17:24

Ah that's a shame! I don't know why all the prices are different for different sizes Confused

weallhavedreams · 09/04/2018 17:27

I'm a 4 too (I think? Just tried them and seem a bit big so may go for 3.5) and they have both!

CountFosco · 09/04/2018 17:27

I have sequinned gunmetal grey Converse and get loads of compliments on them. So I vote sequins but like both.

Victoria100 · 09/04/2018 17:30

Do the sequins get ruined and look tired very quickly? I know I'll probably,get more wear out of the plain ones, but the sequin ones are so pretty!

OP posts:

Imo the sequin ones will be virtually impossible to wipe clean if they get muddy or dirty.

NeverTwerkNaked · 09/04/2018 18:06

I have the first pair and am thrilled with them. They still look good despite quite heavy use and they go with pretty much anything

Victoria100 · 09/04/2018 18:11

Update: I've been really bad and I've ordered both as they were both in the Office sale Blush thanks for the heads up @weallhavedreams

TroubledLichen · 09/04/2018 18:17

Excellent update!!!

Victoria100 · 09/04/2018 18:20

I'm telling myself that I will send a pair back and that I'm trying them both before they go out of stock in the sale...in reality I know I'll probably keep both Blush ! I already have far too many shoes Blush

Tkmaxx had the first pair in

I have not practical glitter superstars and love them - buy both of you can get them at the right price Smile

Pandora10 · 09/04/2018 18:37

@ChishandFips33 sorry, I'm not the OP but I was wondering, how much were the rose gold pair in TK Max? I might pop in and have a look myself ☺️

ChishandFips33 · 09/04/2018 18:41

£24.99

There's an 'orange' in a size 4 and other sizes in the rose gold

ChishandFips33 · 09/04/2018 18:42

Missed the update OP! Enjoy both pairs...life is short!

bobisbored · 09/04/2018 18:45

Are these trainers comfy? I bought converse last year and I hate them, they're so heavy and uncomfortable. I like the look of these.
