Still love my California’s, but during the summer prefer to wear Stone Island trainers. Sizing can be tricky on these, so check out a side by side comparison to a Puma California. Click below to read more.

Overall, I still prefer to wear Californias with trousers, but find them too bulky to wear with shorts in the summer. The Stone Island trainers make a really good low cut shoe for wearing with shorts. The other plus side of the SI trainers, is that there are a lot of different color option. I have them in grey, white, yellow, and the reflective.

The branding on the SI trainers is subtle enough. Just a minor logo printed on the side, embossed logo on the heel, and the strap at the back.

Soles are a bit heavier, on the pumas. The SI ones have a deck shoe sole.

Shown above is a UK size 7.5 Puma and a size Euro 42 S092. Sizing can be a bit tricky on these. I wear a size UK 7.5 Puma, and size 41 Stone Island.

    Never really bothered to take much interest in Stone Island trainers, but these quite nice.
    Although the photos look really good, I still prefer the California’s. I’ve been wearing them for years.IMO they are much better than anything Adidas have to offer.
