to be honest i dont think you would be allowed to compete in the UK in running trainers or sneakers! ive certainly never ever seen it. Surely cant be good on grip and support for your ankles

[jabSTRAIGHTh00k]

holy **** are you both wearing trainers??? how can you be allowed to fight in like running trainers and not boxing boots/trainers?????

in most of my fights, i've worn trainers and the ones holding the competitions weren't strict about. Actually, i have a pair of aesics and everlast boxing shoes, but to be honest, i feel way comfortable wearing my trainers. I can move more swiftly on my feet. I guess maybe thats because im flat footed and because the insides of my boxing shoes are also flat, it doesn't give me that cushion that trainers have. thats just me.

I can't afford shoes so i box barefoot. It's awesome but not exactly conventional. I get funny looks. Runners don't let you twist and you can't feel your feetwork.
