Are these nice or have I lost the plot?

Thinking of autumn every day trainers. White seems too summery, my New Balance navy have been well worn but I fancy a change.
I'm middle aged and a very conservative dresser.

I say go for them. It's good to experiment with bolder choices. They're not totally out there either, I would consider them quite safe actually.

I don't like them at all, but then I live in Converse.

If I saw them somewhere I'd think they were a £5 knock off job.

Ugly as fuck sorry 😣

I really like them but then I hate the white trainers that are recommended on here no matter what the outfit or occasion so what do I know.

I wouldn’t part with £100 for them, but would probably buy them on sale. They’re ok - if you like them, go for it!

IntermittentParps · 01/09/2021 09:58

Not sure I'd wear them, but if I saw someone in them I'd like them.
My rule of thumb is look at the pic of the 'top shot' –that's the view of them you'll mostly see, so if you like it, buy them; if you're not sure, don't.

I got these when I was last in Ambleside. Bit of colour but not too in your face. And comfy Wink

I wouldn't wear them , they definitely dont look like an expensive shoe. If you do though just go for it.

One thing to consider though , will you wear them often and will they go with your clothes? If the answer to the first question is no them it would be crazy to spend more than £20 on them.

NatriumChloride · 01/09/2021 10:12

I like them! Go for it, OP!

WhoppingBigBackside · 01/09/2021 18:40

Those are nice @Juniper68, there are similar in the trainer type shoe that I like too.

bringincrazyback · 01/09/2021 18:51

I love them!

@WhoppingBigBackside

Those are nice *@Juniper68*, there are similar in the trainer type shoe that I like too.
I see they have them in different colours 🙈
