Trainers for A/w - what are you wearing?

[Mysteise]

I am so over this heat and v much looking forward to packing my sandals away until next year!
On that note, I’m looking to upgrade my everyday trainers and never quite know what’s currently trendy and comfy.
Are colours still in, or are we heading back towards neutrals? Not really a fan of anything too bold, but I do like richer autumnal tones burgundy, chocolate brown, dark green etc.
What are you all planning to wear this A/W? Any particular trainers you’d recommend? Would love some inspo!

No, the yellows look amazing. Very retro. Thinking of buying a pair but not sure how comfortable, think they may not have much cushion like Adidas Sambas.

I like the look of the Tigers but I have wide feet and I suspect they’re for slimmer feet only. Anyone?

I've found them: Adidas Barreda Lo in metallic. They're much less bright silver in reality.

They're SO cheap on sale right now, but at £60 full price I think they're a bargain.

I have now seen other colours on sale elsewhere & am SO tempted. I need to stay off this board 🫣.

I'm not criticizing anyone. I just genuinely didn't realize seasonal trainers were a thing.

This is interesting as I ruled out buying them as they looked too flat soled.

What the hell would you even call this type of shoe? It’s like a hybrid trainer and boot.

A Brainer? Or a Troot?

I’ve been wearing low-profile trainers a lot this year - aqua & orange suede Adidas or silver Pumas especially. I also picked up some retro-looking mustard yellow ones from M&S for £40 that I’ve been really pleased with. They’ve been really comfy for sightseeing and look as good as my more expensive trainers.

I can't wait to get back into my burgundy Spezials. They're actually a great colour to go with black and blue jeans, which was why I wanted them, but also good for not showing the dirt:

I also want the neutral mushroom-coloured ones someone linked upthread or an animal print. I can't decide!

Ive just bought a third pair in another colour for autumn. I love them 😂troot sounds good to me. This type of trainer boot has been around forever.

When its not so hot I'll model them and post a pic. They really aren't weird under a pair of long trousers. They just look like trainers. I find them super comfortable.

I have orange Puma palermos which are really comfy and I love the autumnal colour if them. I do wear a lot of brown, so been considering getting a brown pair possibly Nike Cortez. I have Gazelles, but their arch is so high that they they are actually a little uncomfortable.

My NB 327s are still going strong. They really had theor moment a few years back, but they are so perfect for my feet that I'll only let them go when they fall apart.

I have mushroom with pink Spezials which look lovely. I am really struggling with the arch supports - will they ever soften out?

I love the Spezials arch support but do have a high instep.

Gone for these; worth a punt at £33 a pair, and I love burnt orange!

I like brown trainers I've just got these, im only 5ft 5 so these give me an extra 1.5-2 inches 😆

Thank you! I love my platform converse but they just look so dated now, but at 5ft 3 I desperately need the height and have been looking for an alternative. I might reach the giddy height of 5.41/2 in these! 😁

I have these exact ones and absolutely love them

According to Vogue trainers are out and smart lace ups and loafers are in.

Have had multiple pairs of Hoff trainers including these in a different colour, would recommend!

Does anyone care what Vogue says anymore? I thought most people have a variety of shoes that include trainers, lace ups and loafers.

Everyone will probably hate them but I just bought these in the sale and I am so excited to wear them. https://www.kurtgeiger.com/women/shoes/sneakers/islington-bow-sneaker-gold-combination-sequin-kurt-geiger-london-5295166779

I like them! Very cool.

I just got myself a pair of these after seeing their ads on social media:

Only tried them on so far, but they seem very comfortable.

I love the arch support, but I'm not sure if they softened up or if I got used to it?
