Marks & Spencer has introduced a new £50 pair of 'sneakerina' shoes, blending trainers with ballet flats, which is expected to be a key trend for spring 2026. The Suede Single Strap Mary Jane Trainers feature a suede finish, a flat sole, and a Mary Jane-style strap, available in deep brown and taupe.
The 'sneakerina' trend has already been embraced by celebrities such as Phoebe Dynevor, Bella Hadid, and Dua Lipa. Bella Hadid was seen wearing a £119 pair from Vivaia, while Dua Lipa showcased Puma Speedcat Ballet Shoes. The style combines the edge of trainers with the femininity of ballet flats.
To style the M&S shoes, fashion experts suggest pairing them with straight-leg blue jeans, a white T-shirt, and a bomber jacket. The trend is expected to gain further momentum as more brands release similar designs.
