What trainers are cool now?

[nurseynursery]

I wear my vans pretty much every day but need some new trainers. What's on trend for a 35 year old on the school run?

New balance 327 or adidas ozweegos

Thanks. I've seen those Osweegos. They are the most awful shape 😂

327s are still very in.

I’m 35 and wear Superga’s but I doubt I’m on trend

You'll get in trouble for this thread and attract all the irritable anti-trainer brigade

Ooh I like these.

It was discussed in great detail "Trainers Again What's Cool" on the 18th February.

Adidas Samba is the current favourite for the fashionistas.

I am loving my Nike blaze at the moment

I just live in Adidas trainers from ebay but if had to guess, based on my observations, I'd say New Balance.

My reply on the other thread!

I've been looking for 'spring' trainers. I have worn black 327's for the entire winter and I really don't think I can beat them, they are pretty much the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. I think I'm just going to get them again in a stone colour. I have never bought 2 pairs of the same trainers!

327s her too...so comfy

But don't forget this is mumsnet and you're not allowed to be 'on trend'😉

Ive just ordered some brand new 327s from Vinted for £50! Bargain

I read the other thread and want some trainers. Everyone raves about NB 327 but I quite like the look of Hoff trainers - my platform high top converse are currently on their way to me, so debating if I actually need a another new pair 🤔

new balance 400

As a result of this thread, just ordered these New Balance shoes. They not any of the ‘in’ shoes, ie. 327, but are a lot cheaper and I think have a retro look about them.

Do the new balance trainers give good arch support?

@MabelMoo23 I’ve got some Hoff Rome trainers arriving today ! They look lovely so fingers crossed they fit and are comfy!! I’m done with white trainers.

Superga are nice but very narrow and no support so no good for me, I like a bit of a bounce.

I love my HOFFS

I also like the 327s , maybe will save for them too.

I love pumps/trainers but haven't worried about which ones are cool since I was about 15.

That's the great thing about growing up, you do and wear things that you actually like without worrying about what other people think. The cool trainers are always the ones you like best.

@MabelMoo23 and others, Hoff trainers are so comfy! Seriously considering a second pair. Whether they count as on trend, I couldn't say but I love them!

My hoff have arrived and they’re as beautiful as I hoped. They are quite stiff though, do they soften up? And can you drive in them - the soles are quite solid so I may have to use an old pair to drive in! I think they’re a tiny bit big but a size down will be too tight on the width. I’m wearing them inside the house for the day to make sure I’m happy. I’ve previously worn the same pair of Stan smiths for two years (apart from walking trainers), so obviously those are super soft and any new trainer will feel quite different!

@melonraspberry I have two pair of Hoffs, both are very comfortable and great for my wide feet. I didn't need to wear them in at all. The pair with the thicker soles are so comfy I actually wear them for running as they are better than any pair of running trainers I've ever had.
