HELP!! I need a pair of trainers....
Right SNET fashion fans!!
I'm on the hunt for a decent pair of fashionable trainers. I'm out the loop a bit lately as a) I'm old! and b) all I ever wear is shoes!
The only trainers I own are for the gym and they could be illuminous orange and green for all I care!
I would love it if you could offer up some suggestions and even pics/links for me to have a nose.
Come on guys...help me get some street cred!!
P.S Need them to go with a pair of jeans!

Some good finds here boys. Thanks for your help. Keep them coming folks.
I like them Marathons in blue but I worry I couldnt 'pull em off' or have the guts to wear a bright blue pair of trainers!! I usually end up with white cos I'm boring!

Adidas Orginals - Chile 62's 
I have the lighter brown ones and think they are the shizzle nizzle
Or Nike Cortez, come in loads of cool colours, i love the white and green ones
Old school trainers will always be cool IMO, unlike all these stupid silly multi coloured ones you see teenages wearing these days
I mean come on! will you ever look back and think, i must of looked super cool strutting about in those

As I move on from my mid-30's into my late-30's, I've change from the typical Adidas stuff to Timberland trainers. A little more grown up and still comfy!
The only stuff I like above are Davyboy's choices!

You can never go wrong with a classic, and to be fair, you can wear them with pretty much anything. Also the classic styles are available in some cool/funky colours and if you are brave enough there are some nice boxing boot 'style' classic out that I think look cool.

These bad boys can only be carried off by a select few though.

Why because I grew out of Reebox Classics when I was 15? 
Seriously, they are the trainer of choice for the modern day pikey!

I have those, but they are silver and white, not pink.
