'cool' trainers

[Bluefrontdoor]

I'm after some trainers to wear with leggings/jeans on the school run and general wanderings on days off. I have gym trainers but I prefer keeping them for gym and running and they are great gym shoes (ASICS) but very much gym looking shoes.
Ideally I'd like mega comfy 🤣 I have converse but they are still painful on my heels after a few hours, I also have some of the summer more plimsolls ones but the are narrow on my toes and catch after a full day too 🙈
So I want something cool I keep looking at trainers and no idea what's hideous (sketchers is a no go i assume?) or what's 'in' was looking at Nike air force? Or Nike air Max or maybe superga. Do I need superga if I have converse?
Alot seem to be knit stuff which is a weather dependent shoe really so looking for something that is ok in a shower I'm not going to get soaked feet.
Any suggestions? What do you all wear on days off round town all weathers wear?

I have gold reebok classics, really comfi and a bit snazzy

I bought Nike Air Zoom Pegasus recently. They're a bit gym-y looking but bloody hell they're comfortable. They're like slippers.

Superga.
I swear by mine. Good with dresses and skirts as cut lower on the foot.
Plus they've just started doing some with a soft back so better if shoes tend to rub a bit on your heels.

Seven feet apart

I love my Nike Air Force 1 - v comfortable and I wear with jeans or maxi/midi dresses. Also have Nike Air Max 95 which are v comfy but I tend to only wear with trousers.

I second Air and Grace for comfort, the memory foam is lovely! They have a few nice styles.

Adidas Gazelles
Vans. Plus they're slip on which is a bonus for me.

I love my Stan Smiths (and I'm late 40s). Currently lusting after Novestas (with gum soles) but they are canvas. Otherwise Vejas are all over instagram at the moment but I think they are vegan? That may or may not affect your decision.

Adidas gazelles

I also love my Adidas Gazelles.

I went to Prague recently and came home with some Botas 66s.

They're SO comfy. And cool.

Another Adidas Gazelles fan. So comfy and never out of style.

I've just bought these Internationalists.

Nike Thea's are lovely as well if you haven't found anything yet.

Ooh you can customise your own internationalist that's cool

Superga for me. I looked at Stan Smiths, Gazelles etc last weekend- then ordered new Superga, just in a different colour.
I can’t get Converse to be comfy all day, my feet just aren’t quite right for the shoe. Love Superga though.

I went looking for Stan Smiths but I found these in John Lewis. I love them and I am living in them at the moment.

Reebok classics are good
Nike internationalist
Adidas originals (although my new pair aren't that comfy - hoping they'll wear in)

I want some Nike Air Force 1s but worried I'm too old 😂

i do wear my black mid top supergas every day at the moment.

I wear Adidas superstars and have for about 30 years (I’m 42). I’m also a secondary teacher and the kids think I have ‘sick creps, miss’. They don’t laugh so I think I’m good and they are comfy.

Air Maxes (Especially the 720s) or even the more pricey vapourmaxes, great comfort when running.

I've got Nike Cortez in three different colours red, grey and black and they are very comfortable. I wear with dresses and trousers.

Another Superga fan here. Get new white ones every year as the go with everything.
I've never had converse but I believe superga are slightly wider if that helps. Amazon is usually the cheapest place for them too.

I have a couple of pairs of Superga too, but I don't count them or Converse as trainers - to me they are pumps/plimsolls.
