Default Re: my shoe collection

I just picked up these lacoste shoes in all white. Really really comfortable.


These are my everyday tennis shoes.


I have these with the blue and 1 that's all white.


I've been looking to improve my shoe collection. I have almost all white and need some good color. I have kinda wide feet. I find skate shoes are comfortable but a little to clunky sometimes and converse have worked out pretty well. Anybody have a clue for a good brand that maybe doesn't run so narrow, that has a fresh new line? Something like those pradas but not $600.

I'll start, Tron - those are hideous.

To the guy above who doesn't understand how people wear sneakers with jeans, and to the earlier poster who never wore sneakers with shorts - wtf is wrong with you? You are greatly overthinking this and apparently far too concerned with what other people think, even though in reality nobody will have a problem with you wearing sneakers in most situations.

What I failed to realize is most posters here are still in college. I guess wearing sneakers with jeans works if you are around that age. However, for guys that are older wearing sneakers with jeans looks immature. And clothing does make a difference even if you have the attitude of not caring what others think. Try going to buy a Porsche in shorts and a T-shirt and most likely you will not be treated well. However, show up wearing nice clothing and you are far more likely to be treated better.

MP,

"Try going to buy a Porsche in shorts and a T-shirt and most likely you will not be treated well. However, show up wearing nice clothing and you are far more likely to be treated better."

In NYC and California, at least, the guy in the shorts and T-shirt at the Ferrari dealership is quite likely going to be treated better.

Browns I don't like either, but prefer slip on between those too.

I actually agree with you somewhat, and have been trying to improve the way I dress in casual situations. But there are a lot of people with money who don't dress like they have a lot of money. The Silicon Valley is full of Internet millionaires who don't want feel like dressing up. The era of salespeople turning away the person wearing jeans ended a while ago.

In casual settings people should dress to feel most comfortable - I'm not talking about Tevas and a t-shirt.

You'll feel more confident in clothes you want to wear. Making a big deal about expectations at certain ages is rididculous. My neighbor has several million in the bank, drives a Buick and dresses similar to his neighbor across the street who probably makes $150k/year.

edit: This means department store clothes - Macy's, Nordstrom's, Bloomingdale's. Docker's and Polo's.
