All the Yr9s at DDs school are in Nike Air Force ones. I think that the older years are a bit more individual in their taste but marginally so. DD had half a dozen friends over recently and playing "guess the shoe" when it was time for them to leave was quite a challenge

13 amost 14, Mum <eyeroll> yo old has AF ones welded to her here too.

JaneKatSuttonGoals · 16/03/2024 22:17

Still panda dunks and Jordan hi tops here but muttering about AF1

idontlikealdi · 16/03/2024 22:18

AF ones or dunks

Mine are in NB 9060 dad trainers ( stupidly expensive) and Gazelles - they are what seem to be coloured Sambas by Adidas

It depends on how old they are and where you live

Onemoret1me · 17/03/2024 08:01

Thanks that’s really useful. I’ll check out the ones mentioned

they will be 14 and live in a small town on the midlands

Ours are AF1 or black and white converse high tops.

I wouldn’t buy anything without asking them. What’s trendy for one lot of teens would be a social no no for another.

Watchthedoormat · 17/03/2024 08:26

Air Force ones
White

Or those Nike (270?) with the bubbled sole and sporty look. Red sole I think.

Yes this! My 14yo wouldn't be seen dead in AF1. Check with them what they'd like.

Absolutely this.

SpottyCats · 17/03/2024 10:19

I would definitely ask. My teens wouldn’t wear AF1 or most of the others mentioned on here tbh. They wear New Balance 530 or 2002R, Sambas or Nike TNs.

TotalDramarama24 · 17/03/2024 10:40

Mine are still wearing Nike Air Force 1s but must be white with white tick

Deargodletitgo · 17/03/2024 10:44

Air Force ones are over, it's new balance (just bought mine some 550), or adidas are really popular, sambas, gazelles. Or puma palemo

Onemoret1me · 17/03/2024 12:49

I mentioned to her about new balance but she’d never heard of them!
