Kicking Up a Storm

What… the Lacoste Storm 96 Lo Trainers

Why… Because a 90s dad trainer isn’t exclusive to the trend; it’s the shoe that transcends the seasons.

Lest we forget the chunky dad’s sneaker that has become the trainer of choice of the last few years; their slightly grotesque, chunky characteristics were the gateway accessory into the ‘ugly but cute’ trend that still prevails. As heels have gone into hibernation and comfortwear has taken centre stage, it seems natural to be pulling out the solid style from the back of our wardrobes.

While not as classically versatile as a basic white trainer, that doesn’t mean that their styling abilities are only limited to the aforementioned fad. Take Lacoste’s latest shoe offering: the Storm 96 Lo trainer. Inspired by the original the Storm 96 OG, Lacoste’s first running shoe released in 1996, the trainer perfects the balance between being designed with the aesthetic in mind, but still being wearable year to year.

Spoilt for choice with colourways – there are 12 styles that range from vivid to more subdued hues – this chameleon-esque shoe can adapt to any outfit. Need a comfortable shoe that’ll bring a youthful edge to an oversized suit? Reach for the Storm 96 Lo. Opting for a sportier look? They’re the kicks for the job. Or even just to grab some milk from your corner shop, these Lacoste’s will mean you’ll be striding in style.
