Canvas style shoes, thin soles

Does anyone know the kind of shoes I mean, a very relaxed style. I’ve seen similar in Shameless and I’m sure other tv shows, especially on young, poorer kids.

hard to describe but basically I like converse but not the thick white soles?

Did you use the word starting - Plim ending Soll

Apparently they've coded it so any post containing that word is autohidden.
There was some pervert coming to MN obsessed with them.

My other replies upnthread were all hidden for a while they seem to have appeared this morning.

Edited

Yeah, its another word for the same shoe, four letters. It is once again a well known troll.

Some Vans don't have white soles, there are about a million kinds. They can be found surprisingly cheaply on Vinted.

If you're feeling like splashing the cash, I've just bought a pair of Vivobarefoot vegan Magnas (surprisingly expensive even on Vinted 😱 But my walking boots were starting to cause me severe pain the moment my feet got hot, so...). They are canvas and rubber and light as a feather, with a thin yet durable "barefoot" sole. They're supposed to be suitable "from city to summit" (I certainly hope so for the price!).

Sorry, OP, I apologise, you are not the small, flat, canvas footwear troll (totally normal words to type! Grin) But that it why some posts are automatically hidden, there are words which are flagged up.

Ones like these?

I like the Toms ones. There’s just something about cheap canvas shoes that makes me think of beach holidays and messing around on boats.

and sorry for starting a thread about the P-word… never thought it might attract that troll

No, I meant lace ups with rubber soles. Thinking about it, I probably did mean the old fashioned gym shoes. I hope that doesn’t encourage the P-troll…
