Shoe shopping poll - TT, shant, Tron, and other shoe experts pls help!

[El Diablo]

Alright, I'm about a year overdue for some shoe shopping. Just haven't had time. Went and checked out some stuff today and I'm going to do some buying this week. I'm much more conservative fashion-wise than many of you cats here, so please keep that in mind with your comments. I'm alright on nice black dress shoes and tennis/running shoes. What I'm looking to fill in is the gap in the middle for day-to-day walking around shoes and casual to nice going out shoes.

I'm probably going to go w/ about 5 pairs. I'm likely to pick from this group because I can get them from three stores that are all very close to each other. But, if there's something you think I really need to consider, feel free to suggest.

1. Adidas Samba. These are my standard walking around shoes. I'm getting these, this is just an FYI.


2. Adidas Kick AG Beige. Probably getting these.



3. Adidas Kick AG Black. Probably getting these.



4. Puma by Alexander van Slobbe Sprint Logo Leather. I'm on the fence on these. The pair I'm interested in has the plain black logo, not the scribble.




5. Fluevog Charles. All my shoes are either white/brown/black. I kinda dig this pair, but not sure how much I'd really wear them. On the fence.



6. Fluevog Harry. Pretty sure I'm getting these.



7. Fluevog Mateo. Leaning towards getting these. The only boots I have are really old and I do like wearing boots sometimes.


So, let me know! Thanks!

I really dont like the sambas, the pumas, and the last 2.

I do like the white adidas.

Other recomendations:
- New Balances - chics dig these when theyre suede theyre kinda urban trendy or whatever. get them in some different colors (not too crazy) and they can add a lil something to an otherwise boring outfit.

- adidas stan smiths and the other white and ones with green trim i forget the name right now. I think these are more fashionable than sambas these days.

you seem to like black shoes tho, and im just not really a black tennis shoe type of guy.

bj,

Boris just picked up some sweet white/green adidas tennies today.

Re: the sambas, I agree that they are a little on the plain side style-wise, but I just like them a lot. I might go w/ a different color, though.

I think I agree re: the Pumas and the boots.

Voted yes on first 3.

These shoes are disgusting. YSSCKY if you buy those teal ones.

Big,

I am gonna guess you don't think buying this pair for an upcoming Vegas trip is a sweet idea:

Only if you plan on wearing them with a big bird costume.
