Styling Guidance

The black and gold colourway gives this trainer a slightly dressed-up edge compared to a plain black trainer, while still working easily with everyday basics. Pair it with straight-leg or slim jeans for a daily look, or with black or grey casual trousers for a coordinated outfit. Black, grey, camel and cream all sit comfortably alongside this colourway, so building an outfit around this trainer is straightforward rather than restrictive.

• Works well with: jeans, casual trousers, midi skirts, everyday knitwear
• Colour palette: black, grey, camel, cream
