BLACK TRAINERS

About

Black goes with everything, which saves a lot of thinking. Our black trainers for mens and womens are mostly leather, with lighter knit styles in the womens range, and come with padded collars, soft linings and cushioned footbeds for all-day wear. It's the colour people reach for first and the one that hides scuffs best, so it's the backbone of the trainer range rather than an afterthought. Sleek and minimal if you want them smart. Sportier if that's your look. Either way, there's cushioning underneath: Bounce footbeds on many styles, supportive midsoles, and slip-resistant outsoles for grip on wet pavements. Below: how to choose between leather and knit, what's inside, how to wear black trainers beyond the obvious, and how to keep them looking crisp. Why choose black trainers over other colours? Black pairs with the widest range of outfits and hides marks better than any other shade, which makes it a sensible first trainer or a safe replacement for a tired pair. It works with denim, chinos, joggers and, in a sleek leather style, even tailored trousers on a casual day. If your wardrobe leans navy, grey and charcoal, black sits comfortably with all three. It's the colour that asks the fewest questions. Which black trainer is right for you? If you want one reliable lace-up, start with The Good Trainer, which has a Bounce footbed and a moisture-wicking socklining. If you prefer something softer and more casual, the Wyatt has a padded collar and adjustable laces. Women looking for something lighter for warmer days can look at the knit styles, and anyone after a sportier shape can browse the athleisure-inspired designs.

For ladies, the range stretches from classic, minimalist leather to a more modern, sporty look, plus lightweight, breathable knit trainers. For men, there are sleek, refined black leather trainers and more athletic-inspired designs with extra cushioning
