Trainers for office wear?

I attend office a few times a month and am struggling with footwear that won't hurt my feet but look reasonably smart. Younger, slimmer colleagues do well dressing up the look of running type trainers. What are alternatives to white flatforms and converse that can look smart?

Camper was my go-to for smart/comfy office shoes

I wear trousers all the time in work and tend to match the colours of my runners with whatever trousers I am wearing that day. It makes them look a bit more discrete. So currently have grey black and navy runners on the go at the moment.

Simple plain black Nike or plain black trainers

Hoff. And keep them purely for going out or the office, don't wear them to the supermarket/school run.

I wear black Nike air force 1s, usually with wide leg or cigarette trousers. I often wear my various white trainers too though.

Russell and Bromley do some nice laceless flat form trainers in loads of colours

I wear gold, sequin hightop converse. Looks good with dresses or trousers. And it's always a talking point when I meet new clients. (Not my pic, but same shoes)

Any of them. They all look very smart and on trend.

I don't wear them because they don't have enough room for my large toes but they look fantastic.
