Despite having already enjoyed a solid couple of years in the fashion spotlight, trainers are showing no signs of going anywhere. Once fashionistas discovered just how much more comfortable they are in comparison to bulky brogues and toe-crushing stilettos, they never looked back. And since then, trainers have only become more wacky and wonderful. So while we’ve still got a good chunk of summer remaining, we thought we’d share some of the more colourful offerings currently available, to ensure you steal the show this August!

Adidas Zx Flux Farm Tropical

Tropical by name, tropical by nature, the Adidas Zx’s are the perfect way to add a taste of the exotic to your outfits this summer. Constructed from a lightweight mesh material, and finished with the brand’s signature black accents, they're guaranteed to keep you feeling ‘cool’ wherever you end up.

Nike Air Force 1 Cmft Qs

With a holographic rainbow-coloured body, contrasted with fresh white detailing, these Nike’s are certainly a ‘force’ to be reckoned with. At their best in full sunshine, these high-top trainers are for those looking to make a statement, everywhere they go! It doesn’t even matter what you pair them with, whether it’s a tracksuit, diving suit, or even a birthday suit, as no one will be looking higher than your ankles...

 Saint Laurent 'Court Classic' Sneakers

Everyone, at one stage in their life, suddenly gets that desire to buy a pair of striking red trainers. It’s like wanting a sports car the moment you hit fifty. If that’s you now, these are the trainers to get. Crafted from luxury calf leather, these Saint Laurent beauties are the only choice when you’re looking to paint the town....um....red.

Nike Free Inneva Woven Sneakers

Combining flair with performance, the Nike Free Innerva’s have been updated with this striking shade of cool ocean blue. And with their incredibly comfortable glove-like fit, you may never want to take them off again!

Valentino Lace Trainers

Valentino’s Lace Trainers contrast soft suede panelling with the brand’s signature Rockstud spikes, making them the ideal option for those who change their mood as often as their outfit. They’d look just as great with a pair of grey cotton shorts, as they would with full-on biker leathers!

Dolce & Gabbana Panelled Sneaker

Expertly crafted in Italy, out of leather, satin and mesh, these pieces of art from duo, Dolche and Gabanna, manage to fuse two seasonal prints; red roses and a tonal-blue pottery motif. Don’t wear them. Just frame them.
