I don’t want to think about how many workout sneakers I have (probably 10ish pairs: 2x road running shoes and 2x trail running shoes, cross trainers, turf shoes, tennis shoes, and a few old pairs of running shoes)… and these aren’t even all of my athletic shoes (like cycling shoes), and I have chosen to make some of these shoes multipurpose even if they’re not meant to be. Side note, I’m glad I’m from a part of the country that uses the term sneakers, I think it’d be way too confusing to use a term like tennis shoe or gym shoe since they’re different shoes in my book!
I also have a pair of lightweight black Sauconys with white sole, they’re kind of a hybrid between a workout shoe and a fashion shoe.
As for fashion sneakers I have flat form black leather slip on sneakers, Adidas Grand Courts (black stripe), all white Sauconys, and gray Allbirds.
Allbirds are my errand running / casual shoe: not cute enough to be worn with a “nice outfit” or if I’m going somewhere but nicer than wearing workout shoes (and saves my workout shoes from unnecessary wear and tear). They’re comfy, trendy enough to feel good wearing out and about but nothing to write home about.
The other 3 I’m likely to wear with jeans, cute but comfy black pants, or other casual pants. I also wear them to work at my current job but couldn’t wear to other jobs. My favorite style wise are the grand courts, but they sometimes give me blisters so I don’t wear them as much as I’d like.
I don’t like longer pants with sneakers (ptsd from wet bootcut jeans and sneakers from childhood!) so I wear them with straight leg, kick flare, boyfriend, or similar cut cropped or ankle length pants (or cuffed boyfriend jeans). If I’m wearing flares or bootcut pants, I wear boots, loafers or sandals. I also usually wear black jeans or pants with my GCs so I feel like the black “matches”, but this is my personal preference.
If I were you I’d try the Treetorns with pants like I mentioned above and see if you like it.
