What white trainers are currently "in"?

[ARoseGarden]

I want to buy a pair of white trainers to wear with jeans and dresses for the summer as I'm bored of my Converse and Vans.

What white trainers are currently "in"? (Not that it matters, but I would like to know)

Thank you!

Fila disrupters or Air Force ones?

Watching with interest, I’ve had converse for many years now and fancy a change. I’ve heard about air & grace? But I think they are quite pricey?

I’m not sure if they’re in (I might be a bit out of touch ) but Stan Smith’s?

How, HOW do people keep white trainers clean??? I use a baby wipe/wash laces but they still look "worn". Loads of people on the street have such nice sparkly ones!

Superga- plus you can throw them in the wash

Air Force one (Nike)
Adidas Sleek or Stan smith
Puma Cali

Vejas seem popular with the 30/40 somethings

Nike Air Force for the edgier/younger look.

Been beaten to it, I was going to suggest Air Force ones

I have white leather superga, but the fabric bits get filthy really quick. Can they go in the wash??

I’m 23 and wholeheartedly disagree with these suggestions! However it might be different with your generation/your peers of course.

You wouldn’t find people my age in stan smiths/fila disruptors as both are hugely outdated. Vans aren’t “in”. Converse had a resurgence in recent years, but I think popularity is beginning to wane again. The more “premium” styles like the platform, leather or rarer colours are the way to go.

Popular trainers now are chunky like the Balenciaga Track (which are expensive!) or Adidas ozweego.

For a more slim style Air Force are popular, as are the “knit” trainers like Yeezy or Balenciaga Speed.

Jordans are popular. Nike release new colourways regularly which each sell out within seconds.

Air Force ones, which look good and are so comfy!

Oh dear lord.. just googled the Balenciaga

i have a pair of yellow Vejas which my DH compares to orthopaedic shoes. They aren't the comfiest if I'm honest but I chose them for their fair trade. I'll be looking elsewhere for the next pair of ethical trainers. Wish I could justify the Stella McCartney Stan Smiths. I love them.

I have "white" canvas Superga, never again. I have tried Oxi, Vanish powder, wash at 30, absolutely everything. Can't get the whiteness back at all, they look grubby. What a waste of money!

I am convinced Duchess Kate has a brand new pair every time she wears them.

I wear Ozweegos - have three pairs in pale pink, white and black. Also All Birds

I must be totally outdated then 😂

@RosaBudDrood I mean…

I’m with the previous poster. I’m in my twenties and fila disruptors are a definite no.
Balenciaga may have even had their moment similar to the Alexander McQueens tbh.

Veja’s are good but don’t clean well, Air Force 1’s or Jordan’s 1’s from Nike are good at a lower price point. Common projects are classic and pretty comfortable.
Higher end white sneakers would be Saint Laurent SL06, Chanel white sneakers or something like the Hermes Advantage sneaker. All pretty comfortable in my opinion and go with everything.

Good luck with whatever you choose don’t forget to spray with something like crept protect to keep them white !

Fila disrupters are not massively outdated I'm also in my 20s and work with teenagers and lots of mr friends and the kids I work with wear them. Agree about Stan smiths though! Balenciagas are grim tho, don't care if they're in or not!

No idea whether these are in or out or somewhere in the middle and don't really care, because I love them (and am nearly fifty, so doubtless nobody else cares either) but I have these

They are incredibly comfortable and not so flat they make my legs ache. Plus they come out of the machine looking immaculate

Another vote for Air Force 1s and I’m in my late 20s

Mine are puma but I am incredibly unfashionable

Me looking at the Balenciaga trainers. Those are some ugly clumpy shoes. Such a reasonable price thought

Air force ones have been my go-to for two / three years and I'm nowhere near ready to give them up. I'm going to be gutted when they become dated because they're the perfect trainer IMO. They stay white, they're comfy, they look good with jeans / leggings / dresses and they make my feet look small (I find converse clown-like on me but I might just have weird skinny feet).

I buy the women's for keeping pristine if I'm going somewhere nice and the juniors for if I'm going somewhere they might get un-whited like a muddy rainy walk

Air Force 1’s or Jordan’s 1’s from Nike are good at a lower price point

The world has gone mad if this is considered a lower price point!

23 year olds arent automatically The Last Word. They can be far too slavish in the brands they will/wont wear. It can be like a uniform, the dictated brand. By 30s/40s people interpret trends through their own lenses thankfully
