Top 5 key insights
1. Nike takes the lead

It's no surprise that Nike's Air Max Tuned 1 is leading the pack. This trend showcases the enduring popularity of Nike's dynamic and stylish designs, particularly among the younger demographic who value both comfort and trendiness.
2. Retro styles reign supreme
adidas Campus 00s and Jordan 4 Retro are enjoying a resurgence, beloved by all genders. This aligns with a broader nostalgia wave; students are embracing styles that merge vintage vibes with contemporary streetwear sensibilities.
3. Grade school shoes dominate
Students are shopping in a savvy way to save money. While not everyone can take advantage of grade school sizing, those who can are using this to save some extra cash and enjoy cheaper trainers from the kids section.
4. Budget-conscious choices
High-price items are scarce, with most top sellers sitting comfortably in the mid-range bracket. This suggests students are keen on finding a balance between quality and affordability, making smart choices that suit their budget without compromising on style.
5. Summer = shopping season

June sales crush other months. New term, new me energy is real and students tend to buy trainers over the summer ahead of a new year of uni.

By focusing on popular, versatile brands, students are stocking up on pieces that are both currently trendy and timelessly classic.
