Drumroll please, as I announce the trainers that will hopefully save me any further slipping embarrassment…
By Katie Garner
Well, it’s been quite a short journey, but an interesting one nevertheless. My mission, which I desperately needed to accept, was to purchase a pair of brand spanking new trainers, complete with gorgeous glue-like grip, yet enough style to make me feel trendy and vaguely sporty. I was fed up of the constant splits, slips and stumbles caused by my tattered Nike’s, so when I was flush with birthday money, I spent out on a shiny new pair to adorn my feet!
I’ve shared with you my top three picks from both Reebok and Adidas. I did have a brief check elsewhere but nothing really caught my eye, so I’ve stuck with these two main popular brands. I’ve showed you trainers in a range of prices, colours and styles, and while you may have guessed which pair I have actually chosen, or which ones I may have preferred, I shall now reveal the pair that won my heart as soon as I set my eyes on them…
Ok, I'll admit the dotty socks don't really match...
Yes folks, I chose the Adidas Clima Cool as my trainer of choice. My main reason is totally vain and simply because I love the colour. I dig purple. Secondly, I believe they are running trainers, so they have a decent grip. Although it doesn’t stick out too much, it is sturdy and I can already feel the difference. It feels amazing to wear trainers that aren’t misshapen, and won’t let me fall to one side. They are super comfy to wear and a really nice fit. I can’t wait to take them on court and test them out properly, but they survived the gym so that’s the first step!
A bird's eye view...
A good solid grip
Looking cool on court come club night!
Did you guess right? Do you think I made the right choice? Let me know what you think about my trainer hunt on the whole! Anyone else hunting for anything right now?
Gotta love the colour!
