Hi.

I've recently joined an office where the dress code is fairly relaxed (although I've still been wearing trousers and shoes). I was thinking of starting to wear trainers to work, mainly becuase I have problems with my feet and it's better when I have good cushioned footwear (most trainers are usually fine) and was wondering if you had any suggestions of decent black trainers. A bit of colour is fine, but mostly black. I really like the Onitsuka Tigers, but haven't found a nice pair in black and in my size. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
:)

I have some black kickers shoe/trainer for Nursery which go well with black pants and cords and allows me to run after brats/run PE sessions.

Got them from republic a while ago now.

Similiar to that - though mine are better. Feels like you are wearing a trainer.

Ask the missus generally do good trainers/shoes
I think these (http://www.office.co.uk/mens/ask_the_missus/georgie_lace_up/71/4688/12713/1) are quite nice..

Yeah, used to do that at school, might invest in another pair.

Thanks for your replies guys, some things I didn't think of (kickers and ask the missus look promising!)

Ha ignore mine - I didn't realise you were male - though I'm sure kickers do a casual mens range!!

Must be the way I stand...

I didn't ignore it - I'll take a look at what kickers do, but the flowers on yours did put me off a bit ;)

HaHa! Oh dear, might start getting a complex about this :D

Suggestions were still good though, just looked for the male equivalents.

What about a pair of skate shoes? I have a pair of DVS skate shoes and they're black all over without a hint of any colour. Obviously, they're unisex so you wouldn't have a problem with sizes.
