#  Why We Love Converse Again  


For some, Converse have taken a backseat to sporty sneakers as the athleisure trend has soared. Here at SL, we've always been a fan of the high top – especially when we’re in the mood for something less bulky and a bit more retro. Here’s why…  


[ Save To My Favourites ](/user/login?destination=/markdownify/node/22169)

 

 



 

 

 

 

01

 

 

### They’re Really Subtle

If you’re over the chunky trainer look, Converse offer a more subtle alternative. All-white versions, in particular, act as a fuss-free foundation for any look.

 

 

 

02

 

 

### They Tap Into The 90s Trend

We love the throw-back feel of Converse – black styles have an especially vintage feel. Add to tapered navy trousers and oversized sweaters for an on-trend nod to a bygone era.

 

 

 

03

 

 

### They Can Be Smart And Casual

Keep them spotless, tie them up tight, and they’re about as smart as trainers get. Scuff them up a bit and keep laces loose for a more knock-about, relaxed feel.

 

 

 

 

04

 

 

### They Go With Everything

From denim to miniskirts, long dresses to smart trousers, a crisp white pair of Converse will work with most things in your wardrobe.

 

 

 

05

 

 

### All The Coolest Girls Still Wear Them

From the world’s biggest influencers like Sincerely Jules to cool Frenchies including Camille Charriere, our style favourites still live in the look.
