For young men, trainers can be the most sought after item in your outfit. Limited edition Nike releases can make or break your reputation of being a trendsetter. Young men with perhaps not a lot of money will try and spend all their money on those Ronnie Fieg collaborations and still won’t get any attention from the girl he is trying to see. Well gentleman, stop spending hundreds of pounds so you can say you own every pair of shoe Nike have ever manufactured. It’s time to step up your shoe game and move it from sneakers to brogues, monk straps, desert boots. But most importantly, the Chelsea boot must rule all.

Harry Styles knows. You can hate One Direction and Harry all you like, but he is one of the best dressed young men on the planet. (Except when he wears shirts and forgets to do up half the buttons) One man you will follow is Fashion Street’s favourite Yeezus. Kanye West can do no wrong in our eyes. Now married with a daughter, Kanye has found himself again and not only is he making good music again, he is a fashion icon and he rarely steps out without chelsea boots.

You may still want those new Adidas Y3’s or a fresh pair of New Balance’s. But a smart, sophisticated, well dressed man can get you places. In your adidas tracksuit and Saucony’s, you will probably be best suited walking to your local job centre or supermarket. What are your thoughts on the topic? Tweet us @fashion1street on whether moving away from trainers can aid you in other walks of life.
