Looking to buy a new pair of trainers but I am totally out of touch with styles since having my kids.

Im 23 weeks pregnant and tend to suffer with pgp in pregnancy so ideally want comfortable but in style and that I’ll happily wear after baby.

Help a girl out please

Adidas are everywhere at the moment if you want something on trend. The Gazelles, Sambas, and Spezials , all quite similar in style.

I love my Nike AL8s, they are so comfy and right from the get go.

I've just ordered some fitflop trainers, they aren't as stylish as the addidas ones but I need something really comfy for work where I can be on my feet all day so giving them a go.

I think different styles are comfy for different feet! I personally like Gazelles - super light and comfy. I got mine from vinted for quite cheap if that doesn't repulse you - have a look at the kids ones, often up to about a size 5.

ohhh, I’ll get comfy. I love adidas in general, gazelles and campus in particular as I have wideish feet. These seem universally acceptable as teen dd just got some which her sister approved prior to purchase.

i had my eye on some Hoffs which the sales assistant in office said were doing very well. She said size up though.

big dd still wears her Airforces but purchased some New Balance which she and her teen friends had been eyeing up for ages. I have seen some NB 574s to try as well.

people on here pointed me in the direction of the trainers on community clothing which look good (eyes on the blue pair). I always love a puma but I’m a 90s indie kid.

i also have Fitflop rallys as my plain white pair and I never rule out a dupe and have good pairs from fat face and new look.

dh has said no more but I’ve not decided on my AW colour way so I dont know how he thinks that is could be right ;). And yes I do wear them all regularly.
