The newest [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-juniper-trail-2-goretex) Trainerendor is a fall shoe made for climbers, hikers and nature-lovers who enjoy being active while maintaining a stylish look. The sneakers have an interesting appearance with a mesh body and unique buckles that straps over the mid-section of the shoes.

Designed for ultimate support, the adjustable straps ensure they have a snug fit that enables them to provide superb stability and traction for climbing and descending hills. There are different versions that combine a mix of [mesh and leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flyknit-venture), which provide breathability for the active wearer. Its color combinations all feature contrasting looks with a speckled sole that adds a stylish pop.

Supporting wearers every step of the way while hiking or simply walking down the street, the [adjustable buckle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buckle-strap) on the Nike Trainerendor allows it to have a tailored fit.
