Trainers, on the other hand, can sometimes feel too informal for smarter outfits. Enter the \u2018sneakerina\u2019: a clever mix between a sneaker and a ballerina shoe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Designed with a flexible, trainer-style sole and built-in Insolia technology, M&amp;S&#8217; pair are made to support your feet from morning through to evening. The soft lining and secure ankle ties help the shoe stay comfortably in place, giving you the ease of a flat with the feel of a trainer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns fp-affiliate has-border-color is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-6f203dca wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-color:#f4f4f4;border-width:15px;padding-top:25px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:25px;padding-left:20px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading fp-affiliate-product-name has-contrast-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-58ca262f451f0c298f23a30b8f86cd4d\" style=\"margin-bottom:2px;text-decoration:none\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marksandspencer.com\/ankle-tie-ballet-trainers\/p\/clp60776592?color=BLACK\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.marksandspencer.com\/ankle-tie-ballet-trainers\/p\/clp60776592?color=BLACK\">M&amp;S Ankle Tie Ballet Trainers<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" style=\"margin-top:2px\" \/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full fp-affiliate-lead-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/02\/sneakerina.jpg\" alt=\"sneakerina\" class=\"wp-image-9368\" style=\"object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/02\/sneakerina.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/02\/sneakerina-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/02\/sneakerina-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/02\/sneakerina-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center fp-affiliate-lead-price\" style=\"margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--xxs)\">Price: \u00a336<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center fp-affiliate-lead-website has-sm-font-size\" style=\"margin-top:2px;margin-bottom:2px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marksandspencer.com\/ankle-tie-ballet-trainers\/p\/clp60776592?color=BLACK\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.marksandspencer.com\/ankle-tie-ballet-trainers\/p\/clp60776592?color=BLACK\">www.marksandspencer.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-052834f7 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:5px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-base-color has-base-2-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-sm-font-size has-custom-font-size wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marksandspencer.com\/ankle-tie-ballet-trainers\/p\/clp60776592?color=BLACK\" style=\"border-radius:3px;padding-top:8px;padding-right:16px;padding-bottom:8px;padding-left:16px;text-transform:uppercase\">Buy Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-sm-font-size\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The term \u2018sneakerina\u2019 emerged as a major fashion trend last year, largely driven by the release of the PUMA Speedcat Ballet SD, and the hybrid style has only gained momentum since. Both practical and dainty, it removes the chunky associations of traditional trainers and lets you lean into a softer, more feminine look; while still offering the support you\u2019d expect from a trainer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What really gives this pair its fashion-forward edge is the clean silhouette and delicate ankle ties. It\u2019s a subtle, on-trend detail that elevates the design and makes them feel thoughtful rather than basic &#8211; the kind of shoe that looks effortlessly current without trying too hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The black and cream shade offerings are incredibly versatile too, working just as well with winter layers as it does with lighter spring outfits. Think straight-leg jeans and a knit for weekend coffee runs, tailored trousers and a blazer for the office, or a floaty midi dress for an easy off-duty look. They strike the perfect balance between smart and casual, making them ideal for days when you want comfort without compromising on style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What we love most about these is how timeless they feel. While chunky trainers and statement footwear come and go, these sit firmly in that classic, quietly chic category. The simple shape, subtle detailing and neutral colourway mean they won\u2019t date, even as trends shift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short: sleek, supportive, endlessly wearable and surprisingly practical &#8211; these M&amp;S \u2018sneakerinas\u2019 are a wardrobe win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>M&amp;S\u2019 take on the \u2018sneakerina\u2019 is our favourite yet Just arrived, and already flying off the shelves!
