Bump, because someone must've bought some recently!

I'll give this a bump and I'm keen to see suggestions too.

Though mentioning dunk highs is doing me no favours. I am totally coveting a pair now!

Kenworthington · 19/04/2023 08:24

Well I realize mine are total marmite but I LOVE how extra they are. They are also very springy. Converse on steroids

@Lottapianos they are an absolute bargain! Get 'em on!
@Kenworthington I keep eyeballing these and I can't decide how I feel about them... 😁Are they comfy though? They look it...

@YouveGotToGrooveIt My daughter has vetoed my choice of dunk highs... she said the colour combo was awful. 😂She's wrong, obv, but I do need her to be seen with me in public.

Very fly @Kenworthington ! I'd gladly swap mine Grin

Musicalmistress · 19/04/2023 18:24

I bought these & I love them! I also bought a plain black pair which are nice enough but not quite as funky

@desperatehousewife2 I like both of those!

I'm now looking at Nike Air Max 1 in neutral shades. Bit dull.

Gazelles - classic, but they are having a moment. Will people think I'm trying to be über trendy? The rest of my wardrobe suggests not 😂

Dunks - plum and cream. Nice but will get grubby...

Off to look at Hoff...

I love trainers. Had some lovely Nike air force ones but had to send them back as only had them since November and they had worn out inside. Got a refund though but not sure I want to risk Nike again

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 19/04/2023 22:09

Such a shame

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 19/04/2023 22:13

Sorry tried to post a pic but can't

TheFormidableMrsC · 19/04/2023 22:14

I've just bought a couple of pairs of Superga on Vinted. Both new in box at a fraction of the price, one silver and one white leather. Really pleased. Go with everything!

GreyTS · 19/04/2023 22:32

These are my most recent pairs, love them both. Been wearing Hoffs all winter and they were great

@GreyTS are your New Balance 550s? If so, are they comfy? I like the look of them, but haven't stumbled across the 'right' colours yet...

Yes 550's, love them, super comfy, insoles are v bouncy, not sure about the all white colour way though, I usually go for brights. Been stopped loads in the street when I'm wearing them, mostly by v young people, definitely the trainer of 2023

GreyTS · 21/04/2023 15:30

Love this colour!
