Some people were just baffled that wearing white trainers was still considered such a big no-no.
"Sorry this is ridiculous," one person said. "I can’t believe the colour of your trainers now determines your entry to a club."
"Why can't you wear white trainers to a club?" a second person asked, and a third quizzed: "Can someone genuinely explain what is wrong with white trainers?"

Other long-time ravers joked the TikTok video was simply a continuation of an age-old trend to swerve dress code rules.
“We use to do this in the 90s all the time,” one person said. “Club straight from work we did all sorts lol.”
“This is an old skool trick, any type of trainers were never allowed back in the day!” a second agreed.

“Did this roughly about 20 years ago. Glad to see it still works,” said a third, as a fourth said: “Legend move, did this 10 years ago and was shocked it worked.”
And another commenter referenced a now legendary moment from teen comedy The Inbetweeners, writing: “Should have found a homeless person to swap with.”
In other TikTok news, if you’re actually allowed to wear your white trainers to the club, there’s a way to get any creases or marks out of them, with very little fuss.
