A pair of men’s trainers should suit how you plan to wear them, not just your outfit. Yet many people choose footwear based on colour, brand name or an appealing product claim. Afterwards, the fit may prove awkward, the sole may wear out quickly or the shoes may be less suitable for their intended purpose.
Use these checkpoints to compare men’s trainers based on specific features. You’ll also find a selection of PUMA and adidas models for everyday wear, streetwear, training and running.
A low-profile, narrow trainer may look sleek, but it does not automatically provide enough room around the toes. So check the size chart, stated foot length and fit. A standard fit, performance fit or regular-width fit tells you more than your usual shoe size alone.
Models such as the adidas Samba OG are listed as having a standard fit. If you have wide feet or fall between two sizes, compare the length in centimetres with your own foot measurement.
Lightweight men’s running shoes are practical for walking, light training and everyday activities, but not every model is designed for intensive sport. Look at the sole type, the sturdiness of the construction and the brand’s description.
According to the product information, the PUMA Pounce Lite has a lightweight foam construction and a PROTREAD outsole. This makes it an interesting option for everyday movement and running, but product information is no substitute for personal running advice or a professional assessment.
An upper made from leather, synthetic material or textile affects breathability, care requirements and appearance. The sole also helps determine grip and durability. For example, white trainers are versatile and easy to style, but generally require more maintenance than black men’s trainers.
Also check the washing instructions. Several models in this selection must not be put in the washing machine and should be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Measure your foot at the end of the day, when your feet may need a little more room. Measure from the heel to the longest point of your toe and compare this length with the size chart for the specific model.
Pay attention to these points:
If you’re looking for trainers in sizes 40 to 45, it’s worth checking the current stock and exact size notation for each product. A size 44 in one model may fit differently from 44 2/3 in another.
For men’s casual trainers, grip, flexibility and everyday comfort are often more important than maximum cushioning. For running or training, weight, fastening and sole construction are more relevant.
Look out for:
According to the product description, the adidas Run 70s 2.0 combines a synthetic leather and textile upper with a rubber outsole. The adidas Samba OG has a leather upper with suede overlays and a gum rubber sole, creating a retro streetwear look.
PUMA states that at least 30% of the upper of the Pounce Lite is made from recycled materials. This is a verifiable product specification, but on its own it says nothing about the shoe’s overall lifespan or performance.
For longer-lasting wear:
Why it suits this profile: This model combines a retro look with a synthetic leather and textile upper. That makes it well suited to everyday wear, jeans and sporty casual clothing.
The product information specifies a rubber outsole, flexible construction and breathable textile lining. Be sure to check the exact foot length for size 42 beforehand.
EU size 42, foot length 26,5 cm according to the product details; rubber outsole and textile lining.
Why it suits this profile: The combination of full-grain leather, suede overlays and the distinctive black-and-white colourway is ideal if you’re looking for a statement casual trainer for streetwear.
The materials and standard fit are clearly specified. Don’t expect a running shoe: the gum rubber cupsole is primarily designed for casual wear.
Full-grain leather with suede overlays; gum rubber sole; sizes available according to the stated adidas size chart.
Why it suits this profile: This model is designed for light everyday movement, training and running. The white-and-black version also works well as a sporty everyday trainer.
The product page specifies the foam’s weight category, a performance fit and a rubber PROTREAD outsole. Measure your foot and follow the PUMA size guidance rather than choosing based on appearance alone.
Upper made with at least 30% recycled materials according to PUMA; textile and synthetic materials; rubber outsole.
Why it suits this profile: According to PUMA, the roomier futuristic shape and SOFTFOAM+ sockliner make this model suitable for everyday city wear and long days on flat surfaces.
The product description mentions IMEVA, an extra-thick heel section in the sockliner and a regular-width fit. These are more specific points of reference than a general comfort claim.
Upper made from 78,60% synthetic material and 21,40% textile; IMEVA material; rubber outsole.
We’ve put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
That depends on how far you walk, your clothing style and the surface you use them on. Men’s casual trainers such as the adidas Samba OG are primarily designed for style and everyday wear. Models with a foam construction, such as the PUMA Pounce Lite, may be more suitable if you regularly walk, train or go for light runs.
Measure both feet in centimetres and use the longer foot as your reference. Compare this measurement with the specific product table. Also pay attention to the difference between a standard fit, regular-width fit and performance fit. If in doubt, check the information on insole length and foot length, rather than looking only at the EU size.
Clean stains as soon as possible with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh products and do not submerge the shoes. Allow them to air-dry and store them somewhere dry. White men’s trainers show dirt more quickly, while black men’s trainers often conceal stains better but can also become discoloured through strong sunlight or incorrect cleaning.
