Trainers for teenaged girl

14 replies

OutsideContextProblem · 06/05/2018 09:31

DD (15) needs some new trainers for casual wear but has no idea what specific ones she wants. Rather than go into every shop in Oxford Street and listen to a hundred “no”s, which might actually break my soul, can people please help me out by throwing a few suggestions with links/pics which I can use to narrow the field. Ideally not insanely expensive because I’m not 100% sure her feet have stopped growing.

Thanks in advance.

sexnotgender my 15 year old lives in them too as does a large majority of her school. Seems to be the teenage trainer of choice

Vans, Converse or Nike.

Those Vans look nice - I know her best mate wears them. Trying to avoid Converse for foot health reasons.

My 12 yr old dd has those Vans and so do all her friends (including older ones)

My DD 11 has vans which she hates wearing because she finds them uncomfortable and no one around here her age wears them.

If you've got a Nike outlet near you they're great, always fantastic bargains to be had.

Converse

My 15 year old wears, black converse, pink vans and white Stan smiths with metallic stripes!

We got converse-style Vans in the end. Thanks very much for your help, the entire process was remarkably painless with only two pairs tried on - in and out in fifteen minutes.
