Trainers that go with everything: How to spot the best ones in the sale

The right shoes can make your outfits feel - well .. effortless, whether you’re in jeans, a dress, or loungewear. If you’re scrolling through sale pages, why not keep these three style-savvy tips in mind so you don’t end up with another “looked cute online but never wear” pair. Why not take a look at what we have in the sale at the same time - check it out here

Shape sets the mood: Chunky v Sleek

The silhouette of your trainers instantly changes how an outfit feels. More 'chunky, styles bring a bold, streetwear edge - think wide-leg jeans, oversized hoodies, puffer jackets, or midi skirts with an unexpected twist. They naturally draw attention, making them a strong style statement. The added sole height can also balance proportions if you love oversized outerwear or layered outfits, giving you a more grounded look.
Sleek, low-profile trainers can give a cleaner, more streamlined finish, pairing beautifully with slip skirts, cigarette trousers, slim jeans, or tailored shorts. They can make casual outfits feel sharper and smart-casual looks more relaxed without looking messy. As a general rule, match the volume of your trainers to the volume of your outfit - or perhaps intentionally break the rule to create contrast, like pairing chunky trainers with a fitted suit for a playful, high-low mix.

Colour counts: Neutral, tonal, or statement

Colour is your fastest route to outfit harmony. Neutrals like white, cream, black, and grey are timeless and will work well with almost any outfit without you having to think. They’re perfect if you want one “do-it-all” pair that won’t clash with anything. Tonal shades, like beige, taupe, soft pastels, or muted earthy tones, work beautifully in minimalist wardrobes, adding depth without overpowering your look. We put a collection together recently, click here to see a pastel pink trainer collection.
If your daily outfits lean toward simple - like jeans and a tee, black leggings and a jumper, a statement trainer can inject instant personality. Bold shades like red, cobalt, or even patterned designs can make a basic outfit look intentional. The trick is to echo that colour somewhere else in your outfit, like in a bag, scarf, or even nail polish, so the look feels pulled together rather than random.

Material matters: Leather, mesh, or suede

The fabric of your trainers can subtly shift your outfit from casual to polished. Leather trainers feel more structured and refined, making them a great choice for smart-casual settings, dinners out, or when you want your jeans-and-shirt combo to feel more put-together. They’re also easier to wipe clean, which means they can keep their sharp look longer. Although but the effort in to keep them looking box fresh, we wrote a guide on this which you can read here
Mesh trainers are breathable and lightweight, ideal for warmer weather, travel, or days with lots of walking. They pair effortlessly with summer dresses, linen trousers, or activewear, giving you a sporty edge. Suede trainers, on the other hand, bring a soft texture that works beautifully in autumn and winter, adding richness to outfits built around knits, coats, and scarves. Just remember to protect them with a spray to keep them looking fresh.
When shopping the sales, think beyond comfort alone—the best trainers are the ones you’ll actually style again and again. Start with the shape that suits your wardrobe, choose colours that mix well with what you own, and pick a material that fits your lifestyle. That way, you’ll end up with a pair you love, wear constantly, and never regret snapping up before the sale ends.
