Trainers and autumn dresses - a plea for help

5 replies

Pregnancypleaforshoes · 25/09/2026 20:53

Can anyone please suggest a trainer that won't look horrendous with black tights and dresses please? My maternity wardrobe consists of 90% ribbed dresses, but severe pelvic girdle pain has me on the hunt for comfy shoes I can wear with them.

I can't afford to replace my maternity clothes with this much to go, and my lower back cannot take another day of boots, even flat ones with insoles.

I've trawled through online retailers but the nicest I could find were black Adidas sambas.

When I was pregnant with PGP I bought some plain black sketchers to wear to work for the last couple of months. So much comfier than shoes/boots

Black adidas samba’s? Have you looked on Pinterest or just googled tights and trainers to see if there’s anything you like in any of the pictures?

Thank you all! Shamefully I didn't even think of Pinterest. I tried Instagram but everyone looked stick slim and stylish - I am a waddling moon at this stage. Having much better luck finding styles I like on Pinterest.
