Retro sportswear is having a huge influence on the sneaker scene at the moment, with everything from minimalist styles to bright colours ready to jazz up your new season wardrobe. Here are five essential trainer trends to know about this autumn… 1. Gorpcore 2.0 As the hugely popular ‘gorpcore’ trend evolves, we’re seeing a new wave of sneakers inspired by hiking gear.

Haines says: “It’s exciting to see these types of shoes blend seamlessly into mainstream sneaker culture – these brands have made running silhouettes a part of everyday fashion.” Asics Gel-1130 White/Birch Trainers, £115 3.

Exciting collaborations are also keeping the soccer trend alive and kicking.” Earlier this year, British menswear designer Grace Wales Bonner collaborated with Adidas on a version of the much-loved Samba.
