Probably inspired by the beautiful weather today, I'm thinking about buying some new trainers ready for spring.
I want something fashionable, that look up to date. Any suggestions please?

I like these

And these but they're pricy

but I don't really know what's in fashion at the moment

I have some arigatos that I love from Vinted and also some new balance which I think look great with every outfit.
Let me find the links ...

onlyconnect · 10/02/2024 14:38

I will keep looking on Vinted for Arigatos. There aren't any suitable at the moment.
Any thoughts on the Adidas ones?

I can't open the addidas link, I've got these but in green- I think they go with everything as would you arigatos

There was a similar thread a couple of weeks ago and following that I bought Hoff (broadways) which are similar in style to the two you linked. They are so comfy.

What about some Superga? I got a pair just before Christmas and I love them. So much more comfortable than other big brands that look similar. And very on trend as PoW has a collection of them. And not terribly expensive either.

Openingmyeyes · 10/02/2024 14:59

I got these ones, sorry I'm not good at links either

Does it matter what is in fashion? Surely you just buy the trainers you like?

FancyBiscuitsLevel · 10/02/2024 15:08

Ooh, I’ve just been thinking new trainers too. I think I’m a bit bored of white trainers, have been wearing a variation each summer for the last 10-15 years. I’ve got some new balance cream ones with the N In leopard print from last summer still, and was considering a pair of green adidas gazelles.

I’ve decided I’m binning the white and nice looking but bloody uncomfortable vejas. So many people told me how comfy they are but I think I might have weird shaped feet.

for those with a smaller foot size, always worth checking the kids section of adidas as often they have the same trainer style and colour ways but for £20-30 less, was surprised how big the kids section goes with them.

Growlybear83 in this instance I want something fashionable. Generally I think it's what I like that matters but I want some trainers that look up-to-date

All the middle aged instagrammers seem to be wearing mustard coloured trainers. Am assuming that’s the middle aged mum trainer of the season.

onlyconnect · 10/02/2024 15:14

FancyBiscuitsLevel I'll have a look. Mustard does go with everything and I am fed up of plain white.
So far these are still my favourite though because they're just slightly built up

FancyBiscuitsLevel · 10/02/2024 15:24

Ooh, they are nice! But you probably need to do some trying on and go for comfort.

Oldraver · 10/02/2024 17:25

I know nothing of fashion at all, I love the Gola ones and am so tempted

Reebok Classic have some nice trainers

Quizine · 10/02/2024 17:29

Wait for the knock offs in Primark. Then you'll know what's in fashion.

I still have some cheapos that look like some of the brands above, without the logo. So comfortable.

Shock horror, unbelievable, you couldn't, you didn't, you wouldn't would you? YES.

New Balance website seems to have a few sale items. I've just bought these:

I tried to link some Saucony Shadow 6000 trainers but MN have hidden it. I used tinyulr to shorten the link so not sure what I did wrong.
They have a sale on - RRP £130, got them for £67.35 (incl postage).
Lovely summer colours.

Hashtagihearya · 11/02/2024 07:43

I'm also looking! Bought some NB but in white and pink but didn't fit my wide feet...@Openingmyeyes are the hoffs wider than normal trainers? The only ones that fit me are Clarks wide fit and puma mens...I love the red Gola ones tho @onlyconnect !! The mustard link doesn't work.

I've been eying up saucony, what's the sizing like?
