I really don't get on with Converse. I find them uncomfortable and my feet are always cold. 😂 Any recommendations ladies?

no idea how comfortable they are though

I like the leather ones I have from Moda in Pelle. Not the height of fashion but they always seem to get compliments. Mine are years old but I like these ones.

Thank you ladies! I used to have Ash a few years ago actually! I dunno, I just feel suggestions so far feel a bit heavy and wintery? The vans link isn't working for me so I'll Google them now. Appreciate the replies. Any more recommendations? Maybe a bit lighter and sportier? Springy rather than Wintery..

I was searching for converse alternatives a few weeks ago, saw some nice high tops by Gola and a brand I hadn't heard of called Novesta.

Air and Grace. Converse rubbed my heels raw

I have Nike Blazers which are comfy and come in lots of colour-ways.

I’ve just got some Gabor Bulner trainers. I’ve got quite wide feet and as much as I love converse my feet really don’t.

I have Veja hi tops which I love. Like these but mine are grey with white soles. They're not canvas so fairly warm. www.veja-store.com/en_eu/catalog/category/view/s/roraima/id/228/

Would you budget stretch to golden goose, if you've bought ash before?

CoconutAmericano · 11/03/2022 21:31

Thank you all! The Nike Blazers are right up my alley! The vintage ‘77 are 👌🏻 And also my year!!

I'd second vans. I don't find converse comfortable but I do vans. I have grey ones. Nice for summer

schroeder · 11/03/2022 21:50

I love my nike af1 hitops very comfortable.

Bpickle1 · 11/03/2022 22:01

Soft 7s from ECCO are very comfortable and have look of converse

I LOVE those! Do you know if they come up small or big?
WorkingOnMyNightCheese · 11/03/2022 22:35

I've got some AllBirds and love them. They're light and soft and comfortable from first wear.

RampantIvy · 11/03/2022 22:48

I have these, but I'm not very fashionable.

Smudge18 · 11/03/2022 23:26

I love my Ugg Olive's.

Nitgel · 11/03/2022 23:30
