Dad trainers are the surprising trend that's taken the fashion world by storm, and while they might be somewhat of an acquired taste, it looks like they are here to stay. Already a supermodel favourite, they've slowly been replacing everyone's trusty Converse and other favoured retro styles, both on the streets and on the red carpet.
Of course, they might not look like they could fit in your wardrobe. But before you write them off completely, know that they actually are a pretty versatile shoe that would add a cool touch to any outfit, whether you like to wear midi dresses or distressed denim. Read on to see how street style stars have been wearing them, then shop a pair once you've been converted — and trust me when I say that you will be.
