You are wrong in your opinions on white trainers, and extremely wrong in your opinion that black reeboks count as 'smart clothes'. You are SCOTTISH though, innit
Just personal taste. I also have a slight dislike for those tiny little socks which come just to the back of your heels. They look like my late mums orthopaedic socks which she had to wear late in life to keep her blood circulation flowing

Adidas Dragons are indeed a 'snug' fit compared to most other originals.

Nike air max... reebok classics... although i am liking these nike slip on slipper like shoes...
I tend to wear shoes more these days, age thing, but I have a pair of Vans for non-shoe days.

For me it is Lacoste. But then I am a south London chav at heart

Wow an NSC thread I can truly relate to for once.
Adidas by an absolute country mile for me. Getting to a point the missus is starting to insist on a 'one in one out' policy on new purchases (totally ignored). However I own two pairs of Diadora Borg Elites which own a special place in my heart.
The nostalgic romantic in me has had my eye out for a pair of Nike Cortez.

Used to breathe and sleep Adidas when a yoof, but now wear Converse, who according to some comedian, on a similar thread a while ago, are the footwear for vicars.

For running/sport i'm an Asics man but for wearing out it can only be Adidas. Think i've got 20+ now in various colourways. Big fan of all things football casual

Addidas Superstars, which are now apparently the cool trainer of choice amongst the youth..

DC's for me. Been wearing them for years and when I do occasionally stray elsewhere I am always disappointed as DC's are so comfortable and hard wearing.

The title of the poll and the question in the OP are two different things. Who makes the best trainers? Haven't got a clue. For general wear I like Nike because they fit my wide feet – which has always ruled Adidas out for me, sadly – I like the styles and they are really comfortable.
But for running – I've had Asics for a good few years (having had New Balance and a pair of Nike 'proper' running trainers) because they wear amazingly well and are SO comfortable it's like putting on slippers when I put them on. I get about 1,000+ miles from a pair of Asics, so in that respect they make the 'best' trainers for me, but they don't really go with everyday clothes.

All white, with no visible branding or contrasting patterns. With white laces.
I've given up looking for them.
