Trainers and suits are a big no no, been getting a lot of stick from work for wearing this combo but its something ive always done and never thought twice about it. I always thought id look fly if they matched but maybe because im growing up a bit ive realised i look like a right wally :'( :(

I just wish id of known this before i got married 18 months ago, i thought i looked cool and my bride didnt say anything but now i know i looked like the accused in a rental :( :'(

Now that I think about it, and with two divorces behind me, wearing running shoes to your wedding might not be such a bad idea after all. :thumbs: :lol:

I switched to my trainers halfway through the wedding reception last year, but i also took off my jacket and tie so it was trousers, shirt and trainers.

That was more for comfort than fashion though.

Especially if you didnt take them off! :lol:

Totally uncool Lee, but never mind mate, just Photoshop a nice pair of shiny black shoes in and you've cracked it.

Is your missus having a bad hair day there? :D

Id be more worried about marrying a headless woman mate ! ;)

But trainers and suits of any description are definitely a no-no ! ;)

Yeh, I've accidentally worn trainsers with a shirt and black trousers to work. It would be the day I had 2 site visits to do as well. The clients were quick to point out my fashion sense :|

I only ever wear trainers to the gym!

I sometimes where flat trainers with jeans, like these:

Lee, It's just plain wrong fella....................... although looks better than the Scouse fashion faux pas of Shell Suit and Rockport boots.:gag:

Lee, if you'd met me at the altar wearing a suit & trainers you can bet your bottom dollar you'd have been met with a very different kind of dressing down!

Starting on the left of the group shot, I wonder exactly what the lime greenn mermaid was aiming for when she purchased that outfit? ...

Just why did the middle-aged woman in the orange lace pinch the lap dancers shoes & whats with the snow white boobs? ...

What had her friend been up to the night before to get those bruises on her knees?...

and why did mom wear a mixing bowl on her head!

Think Id better stop there!

I guess this really proves that 'theres nowt as queer as folk' and lets be honest, every wedding throws up a fashion faux pas or two ... just some have more than others! :lol:

I think everybody was doing that for a bet.

:lol: I missed that the first time - I was still reeling at the sight of the lime-green horror on the left.

But no - Trainers and Suits...:nono:

Get some nice black brogues and spend a while breaking them in. They'll last a lifetime if you take care of them. My pair have so far done about 20 years and been re-soled three times. And good brogues never go out of fashion.
