How about these?

http://www.crockettandjones.com/product/clifford-t...

I have a pair and they're lovely - darker tan than your option so less 'hello!', beautifully finished and extremely comfortable.

Very nice but dare I ask the price? I tended to go for the Barkers because they can be had for about 200 notes, I dread to think how much the C&J are, 400?

tbh - I can't remember exactly. I bought a number of pairs at the time and don't know what the individual prices were. Not sure it was 400 as a deal was done given how many I was buying, but that sounds about right. It was from their shop in Burlington Arcade.

Shoes are one of the few things I don't set a budget on as it's a false economy. I've pairs from 25 years ago that still look as good as new.

Its the same issue I was faced with, so I got black, navy and blue !

I prefer the samba with the fatter part at the front, but they are all proper classics, no other trainers for me thank you.

Where did you get them? I wanted to replace my old Sambas that look like your pictures but on the Addidas site they have some strange brown sole

Might go for a pair of Gazelle

sorry just saw your reply, I got mine from Sports Direct (I know I know !)

Trainer wise - I've worn virtually nothing but Sambas the last 20 years, they are versatile, durable and I love the look.

Have they always had the 'Gazelle' branding so large on the side?

I can't remember my old ones being so brash - I wouldn't have bought them otherwise.

Must say, I like the look of these... Note to myself - must pop into a shop tomorrow.

I have them in black already, very comfy, well made, cheap enough, so I've bought a brown pair for work too.

Are you an estate agent or in mobile phone sales?

Did these get missed? No one's taken the piss out of them.

I like those.

Would look good with a navy suit.
