Now that I’m fully on the pathway to being a sneaker convert, I’m looking to graduate from my Nikes. But what to choose, seeing as there are so many styles, from logos, embellishments and prints to the laceless sock kind? Personally, I’m after something chunky that nods to “dad” sneakers. As I’m still relatively new to this trend, though, I don’t want anything too loud or colourful, so I’m opting for Stella McCartney’s white faux leather Eclypse sneakers.
In fact, we loved Stella’s trainers so much that we asked her team to make a women’s version of a pair we saw on the men’s runway especially for our customers; it’ll be launching exclusively in September (stay tuned; note that you can buy her other versions already). But until then, I’ll be wearing my Eclypses day in, day out, and I have to admit they’re quite simply the comfiest things alive.
