If plain, simple and classic is your idea of a good pair of trainers, you just might appreciate the latest reissue of the Adidas Samba Suede.
Very much back to basics with the original black and white colour scheme, gold detailing and branding, a premium suede upper, white contrast sole and white laces.
No rarity value, but the upside of that is a £49 price tag.

We actually featured the Adidas Carl Gruber range as far back as 2006, which is roughly when this reissue of the Adidas Carl Gruber Moon Boots hit the shelves. Sought after then, they're equally collectable now – and there's a pair on eBay if you are off skiing anytime soon and want to make an impression.
The range, in conjunction with the Austrian ski instructor Gruber, was big news in the 70s, with an updated range of old and new designs returning five or so years back. The Moon Boots were pure 70s excess, especially in the rainbow colour option.
This pair is a UK size 8, still in the box with tags and selling originally for £129.99. Right now, this pair is yours for £79.99 on a 'Buy It Now'.

Big thanks to Andrew for the tip off!
Here’s something that’s ghosted in without warning – new reissues of the Adidas Chile 62 trainers. Read more
In its day, the Verner Panton Peacock Chair was a stunning and eye-catching design, so much so that Habitat reissued the chair for a very short period in the 1990s. It's one of those reissues that you'll find on eBay right now.
Dating back to 1969, the chair has the look of a peacock's fan-like tail, with a galvanised white metal frame hosting seven red circular wool cushions. It's a space age classic, guaranteed to set off any room.
According to the seller, the condition is 'very good', although the cushions might need a dry clean from general wear. £199 is both the starting and current price for it, much less than the Habitat reissue cost at the time.
A no-nonsense 1970s classic is back with a new finish – the Nike Cortez trainers.
Well, we say it's a new finish – it is and it isn't. The new material is a lightweight nylon upper, but the colour scheme is apparently an original college colourway. Specifically, that's white with a touch of red and blue, plus an oversized 'swoosh'.
Available online, a pair retails for £49.
If you're a fan of Puma, you might like to know that the Puma Basket trainers are back on the shelves.
A limited edition reissue, this much loved basketball shoe and pre-cursor to the classic Clyde is back with an original shape and colourway, specifically white with a deep red stripe on the side and heel, gold slipping in for the branding.
The upper is a premium leather and the price online is £55.
