So I need trainers than aren’t trainers

[Bella444]

Someone help! I run a catering company, long hours on my feet back of house but also meeting clients and customer facing. I need some shoes that cover everything. Is that even possible? During winter I tend to lean towards knee high flat boots but these are way too hot in this weather. Ballet flats don’t tend to be robust enough. I feel like I’m just stuck with “granny shoes” 😁

What about leather Converse? Too casual?

Or something from Air and Grace with their lovely memory foam insoles (designed to be comfy all day long):

Or for a bigger budget, leather trainers from Paul Smith:

Thanks. I’ll have a look at those x

Check out Camper, Clarks and Ecco. They're all good for that sort of thing.

What about Adidas Stan Smiths? I find mine super comfy. My son is on about his fourth black pair for school (fast growing teen), they are just non-trainer enough to fly under the no-trainers with uniform radar.

Fitfllop have some ballet flats

FitFlops have lots of shoes with a good thick sole for waking and standing around.

I have these and they're comfy, versatile and not too expensive.

Fit flops. It's all I wear
