You know what the problem with athletic shoes is? They look like athletic shoes. Okay, so maybe you don’t care too much, but we think that sometimes it’s nice to have shoes you’re proud of wearing. Enter the NOBULL Clay Trainers. These bad boys are equipped for virtually any activity your training might require – from running to jumping – but have a sleek, put-together look – one just as at home hanging out as they are on the track. A perfect balance between cushy trainers and stylish sneakers.

Like other NOBULL pieces, the Clay Trainers value high-end engineering and tech – not gimmicks.The thick, padded uppers are fastened from a seamless piece of “SuperFabric.” This material of unspecified origin is breathable, ultra-durable and abrasion resistant. This is paired with a perforated microsuede tongue that breathes to keep your tongue cool. Carbon lateral and medial guards add protection to the mesh sidewalls. We’re not entirely sure carbon “guards” aren’t gimmicky, but we definitely prefer more support over less.

On the bottom are sturdy, tacky and flat rubber outsoles. With a durable lug pattern designed for “multi-environment usage,” these soles balance flexibility and support.

We could stare at them all day. If you’d like to add some style to your gym outfit without sacrificing performance and agility, snag a pair of these Clay Trainers.
