So I'm looking for a trainer for regular everyday office wear. Doesn't need to look smart as my place of work is very relaxed. I need them to be super comfy as I want to move away from the boots I currently wear and look after my feet and knees.

Any suggestions?

Roshe Twos if you want something cheap. Most people will recommend something with a boost sole though (ultra boosts, pure boosts, NMDs etc.)
 
If I want anything other than bog standard colours on the Roshe Twos then they are only £20 less than the Ultra Boosts.
Those are Flyknit Roshe Twos then. But tbf you aren't going to get anything other than bog standard colours on Ultra Boosts too.

If you want something more vibrant then look at the Flyknit Air Max 1, Lunar Epics etc.

I thought I had to pay £110 for a pair of black Roshe Two to be customised with a white soul but it's only coming to £80 in the basket.

I think I want the Ultra Boosts but I'm not a fan out the polystyrene soul. Does it look better in person?

All bar one of the Roshe Two colourways have a white/sail sole. In fact if you go to Urban Industry you can get a pair for £68 (15% off first order).

And yeah, Ultra Boosts look much better in person on feet than they do when not being worn. I'd recommend hunting down a pair of the uncaged version if you go that route though, as I personally find them to be way more comfortable.

Thanks for the link. As they're so cheap I might pick up some Roshe Twos as well as some Ultra Boost Uncaged

I apologise for what may be a stupid question but if I'm going for comfort do you all wear socks, trainer socks or nothing at all with your trainers?

Ended up ordering these yesterday: ナイキ 東京 LunarGlide 8. EM is heavier than flyknit (to me at least) but these were pretty comfy when I tried on a regular pair at Niketown.

I swear by LunarGlides for running and everyday wear. Will definitely be picking these up!

Just want some XXX1's,none of the usual sites are loading for me.

Footlocker has every size left if you are still looking. I feel like an idiot desperately trying to hit the SNKRS app right at 9 yesterday when I see so much stock still around for the 31s.

Eastbay,Footlocker,Champs and Nike are all out of stock for the 31's in sz 14. There are usually restocks on the new J's correct?
 
I think the olive ultra boost uncaged look the best. What are the chances that they will become available again on the Adidas website or would I be best hunting in store in my local city (Leeds?)

These look dope. I need a pair of gym only shoes. These could be it.

Banned 1's going for about $320 in my size. If they get to $300 I might jump on them.

What size?

Yeah, I like em a lot. I think they're underrated. Most people just think they're poor mans Yeezys though.

Yea definitely underrated IMO. I really wish I didn't miss out on the ones with the pink bottom.

The new black Flyknit Racers also look great. Must decide between those and LunarGlide 8 tho.

Dammit, I really like those. I might cop them with the triple black alpha bounces releasing this week.
 
oh wow

nm, this will be my gym shoe lol

Can't go wrong with either but I'd say the LunarGlide 8 are probably better for the gym though you can work out in Racers. Most people I know will race in Racers and work out in LunarGlides. LunarGlides also being cheaper by like $30 helps too lol.

That said, those Racers look great and I kinda want a pair myself.

Not on the first colorway going from the last few years atleast. The Team Orange 29s never got a restock, IIRC. I remember F5-ing to get them on release day. Obviously the 30s sold so poorly we didn't have to worry about a restock. I really liked the 29 Team Orange, and the 29 Lows. I hated the 30s though in looks and function. I love the Banned 31s as well.

I just checked Footlocker and they have size 14 in stock if you still want it.

I ordered the XXXIs. I thought about paying reseller prices for the breds but nah. I already have the Saint Laurent "breds" anyway so it's redundant to get the AJ1 breds. At least that's what I'll keep telling myself.

Since I took the L on the breds I was thinking about getting these. they look nice and different.

Not going to be shorts weather much longer. Not sure how I feel about sockliner shoes with long pants, especially if you're not rolling or cinching the hem.
