Just thought I would ask before I order some.

Thy are pretty narrow, the tongue sits weirdly and they are not comfortable in my opinion.
I also think they are overpriced I used to see them everywhere now hardly see them I think ppl have got over the hype. If I was looking for new trainer style shoes they wouldn't be on my radar.

@Hskatkat have you any recommendations?

I tend to prefer new balance , Under Armour and I used to wear some Nike
But I don't wear them with dresses etc so I might not be the person to ask.
I never got on board with white trainers and a midi dress look.
It depends also what you 'look' is, I'm not an overly dressy person and don't chase the next fashion I buy what I and what works for me, i recently gave away 3/4 of my wardrobe as it was for a life I no longer have.

I have wide feet and have been wearing the same pair for nearly 3 years. Very comfortable. I wear them with wide legged trousers.

No! After 1 year of wearing them I had bunions. My feet aren't even wide even with the bunions but they are not roomy for toes or supportive.

I've got 2 pairs and like the look of them but they feel very flat and uncushioned and not supportive compared with other trainers.

I have very wide feet and they were fine but not super comfy and I found the material behind my heel wore away quickly. My knees also started to hurt as the sole is pretty hard.

I bought these about 6 months ago and they are much more comfortable.

I bought the veja / ba&sh collaboration trainers & they're seriously uncomfortable!

I now have 2 pairs of Hoff which I love

ObliviousCoalmine · 28/12/2024 17:02

No. They're also quite plasticky and sweaty, and they age badly.

I have wide feet and after spending a summer holiday with uncomfortable feet, decided to only buy wide-fit trainers in future. It limits your options, particularly if you don’t like Sketchers (I don’t), but brands such as Hoka and OC sell wide-fitting options online - there are generally less colour choices and they seem to sell out quickly in some sizes but I have a couple of pairs that I really like and which I can walk for miles in without discomfort.
