Adidas Trimm Trab

Product
Adidas Trimm Trab
A West German keep-fit shoe that ended up as the uniform of the North West. It came out of a campaign to get people exercising in the mid-1970s, and by the early 1980s it was the shoe of choice for UK football casuals. In Liverpool, "trabs" is still slang for sneakers, which tells you how deep it went. The thick white sole and suede upper are the whole look, and the chunkier sole sets it apart from the flat indoor shoes elsewhere on this list. Reissues have come and gone for decades, and the 2019 global release swapped the suede for soft nubuck, so check the upper before you buy if you want the old feel. Sources disagree on whether it first appeared in 1975 or 1977.
