Trainers are more than shoes that you wear when exercising. They are now fashion statements, a sign of sophistication, and even a way to show how much you love a particular brand. There are trainers designed for working out and pairs meant to be worn to parties and get-togethers.
There are some interesting pairs indeed, including must-have sneakers that will complete your fashion arsenal like no other. If you are out for new trainers and you want to settle for nothing but the best, here are the options to look into.
Balenciaga Trainers
Balenciaga trainers are all the rage right now. Whether you are a sneakerhead or not, a pair of Balenciaga trainers can never go wrong. E-commerce retailers like SSENSE carry the full lineup from this brand, including iconic pieces Blue & Pink Track trainers.
What’s interesting about Balenciaga trainers is how comfortable they are to wear. Balenciaga may not be the oldest brand in the business, but they clearly know how to pamper (the feet of) its fans. Besides, picking up a pair of trainers from Balenciaga is more of an investment than a purchase.
The Cloudbust
Every woman should have at least one pair of white trainers. They are easy to mix and match with other fashion pieces. They work well as part of casual and semi-formal looks and they are as timeless as trainers get.
Sure, white trainers are not the easiest to maintain. You have to clean the pair you own regularly to prevent them from looking dirty. At the very least, you want to age them in a stylish way so the pair ends up looking gorgeous and not dull.
The one pair to die for is the Prada Cloudbust. It is a uniquely designed pair that blends fashion and style with functionality nicely. The sole is incredibly soft and the trainers provide sufficient support for your feet.
Adidas Originals
The Adidas Originals line is filled with gorgeous trainers to choose from, which is why I’m recommending the whole line. The general designs of shoes in this lineup are similar, but you can see different accents, colours, textures, and materials creating different looks altogether.
If you are looking for something stylish and unique, the Originals by Alexander Wang are worth checking out. These Originals feature accents that really bring out the chic side of sneakers. They are perfect for jeans and short skirts.
Nike Blazer Mid Rebel
Nike Blazer Mid Rebel trainers are the next one on our list. The cream pair of trainers is not only comfortable to wear in the winter, but also very comfortable in the summer. The secret behind this trait is the choice of materials that Nike decided to go with.
Skirts and tights are the perfect fit for this pair. You can also wear the Blazer Mid Rebel with a pair of jeans and rock that casual look that suits you so well. Since the Rebel has a higher top, you can also pair it with skinny jeans and still look chic.
Holo Croc
The Holo Croc has become somewhat of a must-have thanks to its unique approach to trainers. Rather than using conventional materials, Holo Croc is made of textured croc fabric. It has a unique finish to it too, plus you will absolutely love the colours it features.
The Holo Croc is not just a good pair for casual looks. You can also rock these sneakers when pulling off a rock and roll look. As an added bonus, this is the pair to wear if you are attending disco- or 80’s-themed parties.
Keds for Kate Spade
Alright, I admit I’m a bit of a sucker for white trainers. The simpler they get, the easier they are to pair with other pieces and accessories. The Keds for Kate Spade white trainers, however, are special. I’m talking about the Ace Glitter ones.
The pair is simple enough to wear but exquisite enough to recognize. Anyone who loves chic trainers will certainly appreciate the Keds for Kate Spade. They are also easy to maintain and age beautifully with a bit of care.
Oh, and did I mention that they are also affordable?
Tretorn Camden
The classic trainers are never out of style and Tretorn Camden understands that. That is why the sparkly pair that is now part of the brand’s Classic trainers collection is so popular on the market. Simple accents, white laces, and colors (and texture) that are easy to mix with jeans and other casual outfits – what’s not to like?
This is the pair that will stay relevant. It may not be as recognisable as the Balenciaga sneakers mentioned earlier, but it will not disappoint.
So, which of these trainers do you like the most? There are more options on the market right now with the trainer market growing rapidly. Shop around and be sure to share your favourites in the comments below!
