Going For Gold With Gola’s New Trainers

Finding the right pair of sneakers for a new gym regime has always been difficult in our experience. That was until we discovered the new Active collection by Gola, a shoe brand many of us remember fondly from our school days.

The innovative styles in this new Gola collection will suit those seeking a good-looking and practical trainer and are ideal for anyone who’d rather be outdoors running than lying on the couch this spring. That’s thanks to new features like a memory foam in-sock, which provides superior comfort, and a sock-like fit with speed lace uppers that’s designed specifically for athletes to enhance their performance.

The Zenith 2 (above) is one of our favourites, a lightweight running and trail shoe laser-cut from a one-piece upper to provide extra support. Its open in-sock allows moisture to wick away from the feet while delivering comfort, durability and shock absorption.

The X-Pand Fly is perfect for those who like nothing more than getting outside to run. A moulded insole offers long-lasting cushioning, as well as helping to inhibit those nasty sneaker odours by allowing the air to flow around the shoe and keep your foot cool.

And while they’re suitable for various types of sports, both trainers are contemporary and modern enough to wear with your favourite jeans in the evening – plus they’ve got their own style that is uniquely Gola.
