Not sure whether to be embarrassed or proud, but my Mrs bought me a couple of pairs of Skechers in the states last summer and I love them. Comfy as hell, memory foam inner, it's like wearing slippers outside. Also got a pair of hamburgs for "smart" , and a pair of cheaper nikes for when I am not fussed about getting them muddy. But yeah, the Skechers win for day to day. They're cheap as chips in Florida but can be more expensive over here so I'm told.

Personally not a fan of adidas anymore, they're too expensive for a brand that have been too inconsistent fits despite being supposedly the same size. The last pair of sambas I had would have this incessant squeak that never went away. It's a shame because I really like adidas shoes design wise...except for the yeezy boosts, they're overpriced turds that are only selling because they're Kanye West's brand.

For comfort, I think vans are amazing, old-skools especially are a great shoe for the cost and are a bit more robust than the more plimsoll like things they have. Would definitely recommend. On a similar note, Nike SBs are also pretty good, they're a bit more understated than Air Max for a considerably smaller price tag.

My experience couldn't be more different. adidas shoes, are just about the only item of clothing that I'm 100% confident buying on line, because I KNOW that every pair of size 10 adidas are going to fit me perfectly.

New Balance - found the right pair for my unique feet problems are years of trying others, and 90% solved. Amazing. Worth the research. I also learnt to always buy slightly too large, including on width.

I have the same with Nike.

New Balance -- they seem to make a lot of trainers for a cheaper price and those cheaper ones are fine for me.

If you like the New Balance stuff it's worth checking our Saucony Jazz or their Shadows. Good trainers for 70 quid but regularly found on offer for 50ish.

Bloody love the Adidas Originals, you just know that they are going to be like a comfy pair of slippers everytime you buy them.

I didn't mention that NB also supply extra wide sizes 2E and 4E, great for wide front half of your feet and toes, if you have wide feet. Trying loads of other brands, I never found this.

Would recommend anyone on twitter to follow SneakerDealsGB if you're into trainers. They tweet when firms do random price drops. Picked up some hamburgs for £35 last week!

I am not on Twitter but have discovered that they also have a FaceBook page, so I am following that to keep me informed of the latest deals. In a similar vein and for those interested it is worth registering with www.adidas.co.uk as they often e-mail out deals and sales.

This brings me onto answering the original point of this thread and it will come as no surprise that I am Adidas Originals all the way...I currently have about 6 pairs on the go!

But in the past I have also had some cool Fred Perry's and Lacoste as well as a fantastic pair of Ikon's.

Albion, England & Adidas forever.

Bought two pairs a couple of months ago (different make). Sports Direct in Crawley do some fair prices.
