"I’ve taken to wearing training shoes a bit recently. No, it’s not a misguided attempt to fit in with the youth of today; I just appreciate the comfort in my medium to old age. When my team told me they could combine the elegance of a dress shoe with the comfort of a trainer, I was most excited. Nevermind trainers: the padding, foam filler and flexible soles would have them as comfortable as old slippers, they said."
