Trainers for Every Occasion

17-05-2011   


When it comes to finding the right outfit, choosing the right shoes is most important. I am a great believer that if the shoe doesn’t work then the whole outfit will have to change. As the Foot Locker Sneaker movement takes off, people all over the world are showing their passion for sneakers in weird and wonderful ways shown in these new Video Virals. This is fcMenswear’s guide to what sneaker suits what occasion.

To start off our guide you can’t beat a classic. A pair of Converse All Stars are a shoe rack must have. Whether you’re Indie, Emo, Skater, Trendy or a Fashionista these trainers go with pretty much everything and will never go out of style.

Running

When going running the last thing you want is a pair of uncomfortable trainers that weigh you down. A pair of Nike Free 3.0 V2 weigh in at only 7.0oz. This light weight trainer will give the wearer the ability to go that bit further in stylish comfort.

Now that its summer it’s time to make a statement by adding a bit of colour to your outfit. These adidas Originals Adilette come in a variety of bright primary colours. Whether you’re wearing them to the park, the beach or to a BBQ with friends, just remember to leave your socks at home.

This Blast from the Past is the 1990 OG Air Jordan V’s. The sample pictured here is from the original release of the Air Jordan V Black/Metallic Silver, 21 years ago. The Jordan V was the first model to bring translucent soles and lace-locks into the Air Jordan line, two features that would eventually become epic. If you’re lucky to have these retro classic’s tucked away then your very luck indeed. Foot Locker has a whole library or Vintage trainers for you to reminisce over.
