White trainers are a wardrobe staple that marry comfort and style, not to mention can be worn with dresses/trousers/skirts/your attire of choice.

There's no shortage of styles to shop on the high street either, but an affordable M&S pair is going straight in our basket.

These Lace Up Trainers cost just £25 and boast a minimal design that won't clash with anything you already own.

They also come with over 500 five-star reviews from shoppers singing their praises, and are available in classic write or a metallic silver if you want a pop of colour.

The perfect year-round shoe, make sure you snap a pair up before they sell out.

Why we rate it

It's not the first time a pair of M&S trainers have proved popular, in February 2020, the now Princess of Wales stepped out in a similar design with a ribbon detail.

She teamed the lace-ups with wide-leg green trousers and a coordinating jumper during a SportsAid event at the London Stadium in east London, and unsurprisingly they quickly sold out.

Having the royal seal of approval isn't the only reason we're a fan, Yahoo UK contributor Anya Meyerowitz has previously raved about a metallic pair that's similar in a glowing review, describing them as the "ideal spring footwear".

The plain white version is currently available in sizes three to eight - half-sizes included - are 100% vegan, and are designed with M&S' Insolia Flex® technology, which provides extra support for the ball of the foot.

What the reviews say

For such an affordable price, it's no wonder these lace-up trainers come with hundreds of five-star reviews. Here's just a snippet of what some had to say:

  • "Wore them around the house for a few days just to soften them up, and their first big day out was a 7.5 mile walk around Prague. Really comfy, no blisters or rubbing on any part of my foot. True to size, I’m a 7, the trainers are a 7 and fit perfectly."

  • "Exactly what I was after; plain white trainers to wear with dresses, shorts and jeans. Great style and fit."

  • "I was concerned they might be uncomfortable or sweaty after a while, but I wore them loads in Italy and they were really comfortable, walking lots. Dripped coffee all over them and it washed off no problem."

  • "Great trainers, true to size, hard wearing and comfortable. Really good value for money."

  • "Fantastic simple yet comfortable and wonderful with trainers or dresses."

  • "Comfy and trendy, smart or casual, with a dress fab, shorts, lovely, cropped jeans really smart. And wipeable."
