Having worked in the fashion industry for over 20 years, I am well-acquainted with FitFlop's ergonomic sandal designs, but did you know this footwear brand, which counts movement and biometrics at the core of its expertise, also makes some of the most comfortable trainers?

With a job that requires getting out and about and a toddler who's suddenly on the go, trainers are my shoe of choice. However, with limited storage, I prefer versatile designs that can pair with almost any outfit. Enter the...FitFlop Rally Trainers.

An all white shoe, without any branding, it's the perfect choice to pair with everything from denim jeans to my best summer dresses, and thanks to its logo-free design, it feels smarter than other white trainers I have owned. Less sporty, more polished, the all-leather design is sleek and clean, allowing for smart-casual outfits that err more on the dressed-up side.

FitFlop Rally Trainer Review

FitFlop Rally Trainer Review: Comfort and Support

The FitFlop Rally trainer can appear a little heavy in its online photos, but in reality, this stylish white trainer is much more streamlined than it originally appears. Light as a cloud, when the box arrived, I genuinely thought it might be accidentally empty. They are certainly some of the lightest trainers I've ever owned, which adds to their all-day comfort wear, as your feet won't feel heavy after several hours of wear.

Slipping them on as soon as they arrived, I did feel like they were perhaps a touch narrower than my usual Puma Cali Court shoes, but once I had them on and headed off to the nursery pick-up, I didn't think about my feet again, a rarity when wearing new shoes.

I did find that the FitFlop Rally was particularly low cut at the top of the foot, meaning you'll want to bag yourself some of the lower rise trainer socks, the type that just cover your feet, if, like me, you want to avoid flashing the tops of your socks.

The lightest pair of shoes I have ever owned, I barely felt like I was wearing shoes at all, which was pretty dreamy.

FitFlop Rally Trainer Review: Style

With a tennis shoe-like aesthetic, they have a lightly sporty look, but thanks to the lack of branding, they have a much more polished finish than many of their counterparts. The clean aesthetic and rounded toe made these a dream to style; they were so discreet, I think they'd work really well with this season's women's trouser suits or a women's tuxedo if you wanted to give a tailored ensemble a little more of a relaxed feel. But essentially, think of this as an unbranded white shoe, grounding any outfit you put with it, so go maximalist or lean into Quiet Luxury, this pair of trainers can do it all.

And the fact that the Rally style is logo free, makes them so much more versatile and a great alternative to ballet pumps if you need a shoe with more arch support.

FitFlop Rally Trainer Review: Cleaning and Care

Like all white shoes, it's essential to maintain cleaning and care to keep your Rally trainers looking tip-top. While there is a whole separate guide on how to clean white shoes, my advice to you would be to wipe your Rally trainers with a damp cloth after each wear to stay on top of their original brightness.

White trainers look best when box fresh, so maintaining their care ensures they look polished for longer. Crafted from supple leather, there isn't much you need to do with the Rally apart from a quick wipe and get yourself some great shoe storage, either a shelving unit or the original box to keep these from getting scratched and scuffed.

FitFlop Rally Trainer Review: Verdict

Some of the best white trainers I now own, I love how the brand combines brilliant scientific know-how to design a shoe that supports your body's natural alignment, movement, and energy, without compromising on style. Because while the shoe trends are important to me, supporting my overall health, after all, good shoes, good posture, better back long term, come up higher on my list. And when I can make style work with comfort, like the Rally provides, I know I am on to a winner.

White trainers aren't going anywhere, a staple of a shoe capsule wardrobe, having a couple of pairs can also help to edge out longevity, as you can rotate and give shoes a rest. The Rally style is a light and effortless choice that will work all-ear round, and the darker navy, black and monochrome iterations are solid choices for autumn and winter too, easily replacing ballet pumps, loafers or brogues in work ensembles. This editor-approved trainer is one you'll wonder how you lived without.

Crafted from soft and lightweight leather, the Rally trainers are gaining a spot in my wardrobe. While I need to get used to the lower rise of the shoe, the lightness was such a game changer, as I can find some of my sportier trainers a little clumpy, which, although in line with the latest shoe aesthetics, can become quite heavy on super busy days.

With a 4.6 star rating on the brand's own site, from over 2000 reviews, it is clear that this is a trainer style loved by customers too and I totally get why. If you want a dressier version, say for pairing with your best wedding guest dresses this summer, I'd give the metallic silver iteration a whirl. Comfort and party-ready design, what's not to love?

And better still, there are often great deals to be had on the FitFlop Rally trainers, whether it's over on Amazon (there's 58% off right now on Amazon Prime Day deals), or via the brand's own website - where it's offering a 15% discount to new customers with the code WELCOME, these trainers are a style steal.
