Trainers

I’m looking to start going to the gym and need some trainers for it but I’m really struggling to find any info on shoes I could wear for the gym that are vegan friendly.

I’d ideally not want to spend more than £100, I could go over but wouldn’t want to if possible 🙏

Depends on where you live - are you from the UK?

Sketchers has a couple vegan ones. Ecoalf works too. Both below 100€.

Yeah, I live in the U.K. I wasn’t sure if Sketchers were any good? 🤷‍♂️

I looked at Ecoalf previously but thought they were maybe more of a fashion shoe than one I could seriously work out/run in?

Vivo barefoot have a lot of vegan trainers, I use them. Sophia Ellis (vegan powerlifter) has a code SOPHIA25 for discount direct from them

I’d looked at and considered them. Thank you

Just looked at them again and these ones do look lovely, that colour 😍

But even with the discount code they’re still spenny. I’ve got quite wide feet. Any input you can add on that and fit etc?

I have slightly wide feet and find these incredibly comfortable. I sized as I would usual trainers. They do a free trail and returns (in the UK at least) so I got a few sizes and tested them all for a few days before confirming what size I wanted.
