Retro-inspired cool starts with Gola trainers
Whether you’re seeking on-trend footwear or simply pure comfort, Gola trainers have you covered for a minimal legacy trainer that is lightweight and dripping with cred. Launching back in 1905 in the UK, the brand coined the term ‘trainers’ around the late Sixties, when sports and athletics dictated certain styles of their repertoire. A wide range for men and women, Gola trainers focus on premium textiles such as suede and leather, adding a retro feel to their designs. Ladies' variants include colours spanning feminine pinks and purples to classic black and whites. Mix them with power suits at work, jeans and cropped tops, or curate more alternative looks with a voluminous tulle skirt, plain tee and biker bomber jacket.
Gola for a contemporary flair to menswear
Primarily a lifestyle shoe now, these Gola kicks bring an effortless cool to outfits ranging from casual to dressy. Guys can combine with cargos and sweatshirts for a streetwear look, or tailored trousers and a button-up shirt for an edgy look at the office. With a gummy outsole for rainy weather stability, these trainers come standard with midsole cushioning, making them great for jobs with walking or standing. Chic and vintage with a sporty edge, Gola pulls off preppy as much as athletic, making them the perfect shoe for upscale casual looks. Combine men’s designer hoodies with jeans and show up polished and confidently cool.
Seventies-inspired trends in a shoe
Fans of old London-inspired retro fashion from the Seventies will love the Gola aesthetic. Colour combos such as mustards, browns, burgundys and deep navys add a music- and sport-inspired cool that speaks of Camden town authenticity and depth. One of the compelling draws to these kicks is how they blend so well with thrifted and pre-loved looks, seeing the younger generations flock to the look with an ‘if you know, you know’ attitude. If you want to use them for light sports, they are great for tennis, Padel or parkour. Grab some trendy men’s tracksuit bottoms and step out with a comfortable, good-looking addition to your shoe collection.
