The ‘sneakerina’ is trending this season, and Ugg’s divisive new design already has shoppers calling it ‘iconic’
No stranger to a controversial design, Ugg’s latest drop has already sparked conversation online, with shoppers calling the trendy shoe “iconic”.
Just last year, Ugg got everyone talking with the launch of its Mary-Jane boots and its shearling-lined ballet flats. Now, it’s released its Quill Ballet Trainer, a take on the trendy ‘sneakerina’.
Exactly how it sounds, the ‘sneakerina’ combines trainers (or sneakers as Americans call them) and ballerina flats. This sounds pretty harmless, considering the two shoes are already popular. However, the result is something many people have mixed opinions about.
As with most wacky trends, the hybrid shoe design has already received the celebrity seal of approval from major A-listers including Bella Hadid, Dua Lipa and Charli XCX.

The Quill Ballet Trainer features a signature Ugg suede upper, laced in the classic ballet flat design, on a rubber sole ideal for daily wear.
Ugg fans have already flooded the brand’s Instagram account with comments of praise. One user wrote, “What these are so cool”, while a second said, “Soooo iconic babe”, and a third commented, “uhhhh so stunning”.
Alongside Ugg, Marks & Spencer is another brand to jump on the trend with its new style, the Suede Single Strap Mary Jane Trainers, priced at £50. These stylish shoes feature a suede finish, which is right on trend for 2026. They also feature a comfy flat sole that makes them ideal for everyday wear, along with a signature Mary Jane-style strap.
While Bella Hadid was spotted wearing this reasonably affordable £119 pair from Vivaia. And not only is Bella a huge fan of Vivaia’s pair, but so is Charli XCX, who was seen sporting two different pairs in the Coachella desert.
