Thoughts on the new allbirds couriers?
I already have a pair of white tennis shoes, but I’m looking to get another pair of sneakers to go along with casual wear. My general aesthetic is a more modern minimalistic look, think Uniqlo/Everlane. For context, I’m in my early 20s. I’m just not sure how I feel about these, some people on r/allbirds say they are hideous. The other color ways look bad imo, but I feel all white on a trainer may be a bit strange.

As an alternative, I’m also considering these NB 574s, but the very retro look is a bit out of my comfort zone
These are so much cooler than the allbirds
574s much better looking imo
Allbirds have strong tech bro associations in some circles
You might want to steer clear if that isn’t your vibe
Not even a big 574 fan and they look miles better
574s are super tame
Aside from looks go for NB for comfort. I tried allbirds before and had to return as it was hurting my feet so much
Any other recommendations for trainer style sneakers that go with a more minimalistic look?
GATs aka german army trainers
I have the maison margiela ones but you don't necessarily need to get those
Cool, I’ll check those out as well
sambas are very trendy and pretty minimal
