Since becoming a writer at Female a year and a half ago, I’ve swopped out the open-toed sandals and wedges I used to favour for more comfortable alternatives. Sneakers are now my daily footwear of choice – a cute pair from Alexa Chung’s collection for Marks & Spencer is my latest acquisition, and I’m awaiting the arrival of a pair of retro Puma suede sneakers too.

Below, meet everything on my wishlist that scores high on style, quality and comfort, from the Veja x G. Kero parrot-printed pair (available in extremely limited quantities) to the Axel Arigatos I’m hankering for.
