Footwear advice
Which one should I buy Between Adidas Superstars, Samba and Stan Smith? My priority is durability as well as versatility. Would they work for dress up as well as down? Regarding the colour I'll be picking white because of the versatility.
Look wise i prefer clean white sneakers but unfortunately I can't find a good pair, the closest option is Massimo, however it's a bit expensive so these adidas sneakers are my options... Gazelle also looks good but I've heard bad reviews. I also thought about Vans and Converse but i feel like those 3 will be more versatile.

The differences in versatility and durability are negligible between those 3 options. Pick the one you like the best
What do you mean by dress up? If you wear any of those to a business meeting or with a suit you'll look straight out of 2010
Fwiw I had a pair of Gazelles and they had a great life. They run a tad narrow though.
They’re all the same in durability but sambas are currently the most trendy. Gazelles are similar to sambas in trendiness
So they aren't as versatile as clean white sneakers.
sneakers with tailoring is a skill check imo.
If this is for work, you'd know your dress code better than us, but if it's for personal wear I'd recommend compiling some inspo of outfits you like that use sneakers dressed both up & down and go from there. Right now you're asking what's most versatile, but there is no one good answer that applies to every person's wardrobe.
I think I'll go with Superstar given that most of the Stans smith are made up of synthetic material....
