The Nike Air Force 1 Gore-Tex comes in three subtle and one not-so-subtle colourways, but it’s the black and orange that really caught our eye. Standing on a loose paving slab on the way to the office and accidentally getting muddy water all over your favourite sneakers never felt this good.

Adidas Manchester United Barcelona ‘99

You don’t need to be a raging Man United fan to appreciate this latest terrace fashion-friendly trainer from the Three Stripes, but it probably helps.

Created in conjunction with the world-famous football club, the Barcelona ‘99 celebrates the 20th anniversary of Manchester United’s Champion’s League final triumph in 1999.

This collaborative effort features subtle nods to that iconic moment, including the numbers 91 and 93 to each tongue – the minutes in which Man U scored the equaliser and winning goal – a red devil to the heel and the word ‘treble’ printed on the laces. Be prepared to pay resale prices though, as this one is already a big hit with collectors.

Reebok x Bronze 56k Club C Revenge

One’s a gritty, underground skate label from New York City, the other is a sportswear brand from, erm, Bolton. On paper, you’d probably never put the two together, but as it turns out, the unlikely duo makes one hell of a trainer.

Reebok’s Club C model has been having a bit of a moment for a few years now. Its retro styling and remarkable way of somehow looking even better when it’s a bit beaten up have made it the go-to sneaker for too-cool-for-school urban hipster types. It’s difficult to imagine how it could be improved upon, but Bronze 56k has done a pretty good job of it.
