I just bought my first pair of trainers in about five years and I’m more excited about wearing them that I thought I’d be. Unsurprisingly, I opted for a pair of Adidas Sambas but, when they arrived, I had a mild panic. How do you style trainers in 2024? As someone who rotates between a capsule of minimal, black leather boots in the winter, loafers in spring and autumn, and simple slider sandals come summer, I had all but forgotten how to make trainers work in my wardrobe. So, I did the natural thing and went straight to Instagram and TikTok, on the hunt for some trainer styling inspo. And, go figure, everyone’s wearing their trainers with trousers right now.
