Taking Over The Streets Of London—This Trainer Trend Will Rival Sambas This Spring

If you step outside in London on any given day you'll likely catch sight of a few things, but none more apparent than the Salomon trainers. Sure, you'll probably come across a stressed commuter or two. You're certain to spot the odd improperly disposed of Greggs packet. But without a doubt, you'll run into a healthy handful of stylish people wearing the technical, running shoe du jour, Salomon trainers.
Although the Adidas Samba trend swept the city in a major way this season, the Salomon trainer trend has been slowly stealing fashion hearts, too. Beloved by those who favour a sportier, more outdoorsy edge, these chunky trainers feature a thick sole, drawstring closure and angular detailing that culminates in a hiking shoe-adjacent style that the city's coolest can't resist.
A well-timed palette cleanser after seasons of Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 and (more recently) Adidas Taekwondo, these trainers marry comfort with style, meaning that they naturally appeal to city dwellers who often rack up a step count in the tens of thousands.
Specialising in outdoor gear including ski equipment and hiking paraphernalia, the Salomon brand prioritises comfort and performance throughout designs, and luckily for tired feet, their footwear collection upholds this quality.
Transcending the hiking trails that launched the footwear trend, the sneakers continue to grow in popularity across London, Paris and New York. Although they're available in a wide range of styles, I've spotted three key silhouettes during most of my recent outings.
