Twisty white trainers

I really like these white slip-ons from H&M with a twisty thing at the front. Very original. But how the quality can be anything other than a skin-lacerating plastic/polymer hybrid at this price is beyond me.

Personally, I’m going to use some of my hard-earned filthy lucre from the DM to get myself a pair of Stan Smith velcros (not their real name).

    I had twisty-top shoes like this when I was about 7, so loved the look of those immediately. Funny how things from your childhood can still really drive your adult desires, like I’m always trying to recreate some feeling I used to have about stuff.

    Esther – H&M ones a total find. I am about 13 months pregnant (feels like) and with bending over to deal with various toddler insanity countless times a day I cannot be faffed to bend down to put shoes on. Just. Too. Much. Last pregnancy was summer, so Birkenstocks all the way (not especially stylish, but really. I was so fat I couldn’t see my feet anyway). So these are perfect. thank you

      Oh Rhian this is a terrible time – PG with toddler insanity. I remember clearing up some terrible bathroom spillage while 234 months pregnant, down on my hands and knees and thinking “it can’t get much worse than this”. and it doesn’t. I’m so pleased the twisty white trainers have a fan. I do hope they’re comfy
