    Men that wear trainers with suits to the station

    There is a perfectly good logic to this. If you have any significant amount of walking as part of your commute doing this in smart shoes for a month will not only destroy your feet but it'll also cost you lots of money in replacing your shoes regularly. Simple solution to both keep your shoes at work and wear trainers for the commute.
    Buy decent, English made shoes (& not just one that pass themselves off as having been made in England). And get ones that fit, not ones that have to be broken in.
    Or just wear trainers. Who gives a shit if someone else doesn't like seeing you wear them.
    People treat you they way they see you. If they see you looking like a chav, that's how they will treat you. It's delusional to say who gives a shit, everybody does

    Bullshit. Wearing trainers on a commute to work is not a fashion statement, anyone with a brain cell knows why you're doing it.

    It's not a problem, it's just a fact of life. We all instinctively assess people as soon as we see them.

    Out of interest, did the suit and trainers ensemble have anything to do with you ending your commute to town 13 years ago ?
