The Germany Army Trainer (GAT) is a sneaker design that has it’s 1930s roots tied with two sneaker giants today, Adidas and Puma. And if you’re looking to get your GAT fix there are loads of places to look, from budget friendly military surplus stores & second hand to not so budget friendly high end fashion brands like Maison Margiela.
Today I’m taking a look at the Preston Chelsea Boot by Beckett Simonon in a terrific chestnut coloured suede, it’s lighter brown than my other pair of Chelseas meaning it should give me a bit more variety when putting together fits.
Everlane launched their Tread sneaker line last year with their first sustainable shoe, the Trainer. Which was a chunky, dad shoe with minimal branding.
This year Everlane released their follow up, the Court sneaker with a more minimal low top sneaker aesthetic.

Meermin has been on my list to try for a long time and now I finally get to see if this pair of suede Chelsea boots will be my last, or the first of many.
