White trainers are a forever-fave, and these ones go with everything

The best white trainers are definitely a commitment. No matter where you live or what environment you wear them in, you’ll struggle to keep them box-fresh.

That said, we’ll never tire of wearing them will we? We all know they’re a classic for a reason; not only do they look really chic, but I don’t know an outfit that doesn’t instantly work (or look better) with a pair of crisp white trainers.

While there aren’t many fashion items that truly stand the test of time, when it comes to footwear, there’s no denying the longevity of humble white trainers. Originally introduced to the world as a sports shoe, these days you’re just as likely to find one on the feet of a fashion week f’row-goer or even in the office as you are on a tennis court. And let’s face it, there are so many designer trainer collabs happening ATM it’s easy to keep that luxe element if you want to, too. Only now it’s just much, much more comfortable.

Whether it’s a chunky-soled number from New Balance, a sleek slip-on-and-go pair like these Samba Mary Janes or a fan favourite Adidas SL72, it’s never not the right time to embrace a pair of the best white trainers and all the fashion girlies, models and IT girls can’t get enough of them.
