what trainers...converse or whats the alternative?

[littlemisschatalot]

fancy some converse but wondered a)what colour and b)what else is trendy?

anyone?

Navy Converse are the Official Trainers of Mumsnet.

I also wear PF Flyers which are similar but leather.

thanks..i was tempted by silver..the sparkly ones....

I love my converse, but quite like superdry as well.
I was really excited when superdry opened at our outlet village recently, only to find it didn't have any footwear

oh you should buy the silver sparkly ones, you won't regret it

adidas superstars for me, always have an always will!!

bumping for the weekday mums

I wear classic adidas
these currently

i braved superdry the other day and got a funky pair of yellow and blue ones, they are like converse, but as the 6 year old shop assistant told me "they're two years old, that style" so not exactly high fashion. I like.

i have lots of these

southeastastra, yep thats my babies! But they are very cool in that colour.

I have this Fly London pair and I love them! The blue is gorgeous. A bit pricey for canvas, but they are so comfortable and are a bit funky!

I have the same pair in all leather in green and have worn them all winter.

I also have a pair of Superdry...blue floral...that I love in the summer.

I just bought silver converse style in M&S kids, they go up to size 6 and only �£15

I love my converse. Ive got a grey pair which go with just about anything. I am currently looking to purchase more but the selection is so huge I can't decide which ones.

piratecat, you also get extra stripes in different colours, so you can change them when you fancy

I like those SEA

I love the look of converse, but they let the rain in something rotten, and I live in England's rainiest city .

Rocketdog slip on canvas types for me

are con's comfy tho? i keep hearing not? i need comfort i walk everywhere!

Converse are quite narrow, so better to try them on before buying if you've got wide-ish feet - I can't wear them at all

I can wear some PF Flyer styles though, and they do have nice thick bouncy soles which is great.

Also like the Adidas Superstars - in fact I must be due a new pair of those

yes fat feet over here

I wear these sketchers, have a silver and black pair, and it makes a nice change form lace-ups and they are super comfy for people like me with wide feet.

If you want really funky colours I recommed Onitsuka tiger trainers. Really great!

how cool

I have these

ah yes forgot about Skechers - if you are wide of foot then Skechers is your friend
