Cute or Creepy: Liberty Nike Trainers

Liberty have joined up with Nike to launch a range of trainers with prints created by children’s illustrators. Read that sentence again. It sounds like a hallucination, yes?

I have no words. Bring on the shoes.


Mauvey Print Blazer Mid Premium Shoes, £75


Helena's Party Blazer Low Shoes, £70


I think I've gone blind in one eye. What do you think?

    Hmmmmmmm...

    I only begrudgingly wear trainers for when I'm running/at the gym. Presumably these aren't really for running...and I'm not going to wear trainers unless I have to, even if they're flowery!

    I love these - who says trainers have to be ugly?

    Oh nobody says trainers have to be ugly! I just find it incredibly confusing that someone appears to have based an entire range of expensive shoes on the inside of a puffa jacket that my friend Joanna owned in 1991.

    I think the first three are hideous and weird and make my head spin. The last pair make me feel queasy but I can't stop looking at them. I think I need to step away from the website.

    I have some brilliant trainers. I love trainers. I'm not sure I could ever love these.

    I like the Eb's print high skinny dunks and have added them to my birthday/christmas list, I just like that pattern and the colours aren't too in your face. The others? Think they're not my bag, the first and last pair are particularly icky.

    It's just such a weird idea - why? They are okay but can't really see who they are hoping will buy them. The original Liberty prints are so lovely, why not just stick to them?

    I really like them... I think they'd be great with a floral dress, however lily allen-esque that may be...

    Only thing that confuses me is why they are launching them now, A/W.. they look much more like S/S shoes to me. I'd be worried about wearing them in the rain!

    I actually love the first ones. The rest make me think of things people wore on episodes of Fun House. :(
