As someone who usually gravitates towards more structured footwear, such as loafers, boots, and more recently ballet flats, I've never been much of a trainer person. I've always associated trainers with sporty vibes—great for some, but I could never quite make it work with my style.
Price: From £25 to £65
Size range: UK 2.5 - 13.5
Fastening: Lace-up
Upper/sole material: Pure cotton upper with rubber sole
However, I've recently converted since trying my first pair of Superga 2750 Classic Canvas trainers. From the moment I tried these on with various outfits, they just worked. And they are some of most comfortable trainers I've tried and tested too.
I've worn these day-to-day, running errands in them, wearing them around the house, and even on my recent holiday. So if you're looking for the best white trainers, these are an excellent pick that won't have you compromising on either comfort or style. Plus their classic canvas design looks great with so many outfits, from denim jeans and knitwear to flowy skirts or dresses.

Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Canvas Review: Comfort & Support
Although the Superga trainers don't have a plush padded insole like other trainers might, they still offer enough support for daily wear—and most importantly, they didn't give me any blisters! I recently wore them on a long day of travelling from London to Ibiza, and these were the perfect choice—comfortable enough to see me through a train ride, airport security, and flying overseas, and of course I wore them whilst exploring the island too and had no issues with comfort.
They may not be super cushioned but they're reliable, and definitely suitable for all-day wear. They are supportive without being chunky, and fitted but not too tight because of the canvas material, making them my new go-to staple. They are ideal for office wear, city commuting and daytime outings too.
Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Canvas Trainer Review: Style
What drew me to these trainers was their classic cool design that's effortlessly chic—and of course the fact that they are Kate Middleton's go-to footwear choice helped!
They truly pair well with so many clothing options, for example, I styled mine with a denim dress whilst travelling, and they complemented the outfit so well. The fact that they show just the right amount of ankle makes them work with a variety of trouser styles too. And the bright white colour is also an excellent choice to make statement trousers pop (see header image).
One of the best things about this classic style is how easily they can transition between the seasons. In the summer, I can imagine that they're perfect for styling with dresses, skirts, and white jeans outfits, and when the cooler months arrive, style with tailored trousers and a chunky knit.
Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Canvas Trainer Review: Cleaning & Care
According to the brand, the rubber sole on these trainers has a crepe-like texture that is designed to help with traction, and this really does the job. After wearing them numerous times, from airport travels to casual city strolls, they have barely any marks on them.
Although for the more accident-prone amongst us, I would highly recommend getting some crepe protection to ensure maximum protection. Or you could always select a darker shade!
However, the huge advantage of the Cotu 2750 style is that you can easily clean them in the washing machine if they do get scuffed. The Superga website actually suggests, "The best way to wash our Cotu shoes is in a pillowcase, cool wash, and powder detergent (not liquid), leave laces on so you don't lose the shape of the shoe, and hang to dry naturally, not on a radiator.".
Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Canvas Trainer Review: Verdict
I've tried quite a few trainer styles over the years, attempting to make them work with my style and hoping they would be comfortable for all-day wear too, and these are some of the best I've tried. They are a great addition to any wardrobe, and have versatile styling options so if you're on the hunt for staples to finish off your autumn capsule wardrobe consider these trainers.
Another winning factor is the price, they are a lot more affordable than leather trainers, and you don't have to sacrifice comfort or versatility.
The classic tennis shoe design and white canvas material look stylish and refined, whilst also giving off an effortlessly cool feel—and they instantly complement almost any outfit. Consider me converted!
