Neutrals were a clear favourite, especially for this time of year. Fresh, crisp and clean they are the versatile pair of shoes you can wear with everything in your wardrobe. Find the new collection of Veja, classic Vans and some sought-after chunky styles from Puma, KENZO and more.

# Winner 3 – Platform Boots

Then throwing it out to the girls, we asked you whether you were going for a heeled boot or a chunky platform and, we got the vibe. Keeping it cool, casual and comfortable, you can’t go wrong with a flat platform boot. With a style essential status, Dr Marten has always been a go-to because you can officially wear them all year round.

# Winner 4 – High Top Sneakers

Everyone owns a pair of classic sneakers, whether you are a Vans lover or live in your Converse. These are the power players that never go out of fashion. Throwing it to you, we asked if you prefer a low-top style or a high-top and it was close, but the high-top style won. So here are some top-line picks for your everyday wardrobe.

@flissnoakes

Lastly, we got your opinion on Veja styles, the IT shoe of the moment. Known for their high-style reputation and sustainable ethos, you picked the V-10 style, and we can see why. Worn with jeans, chinos, skirts or dresses, these are a pair of trainers that you can live in for the whole term. An alternative similar style is the V-12 if you can’t find the colour way you love.
