You should totally consider Jordan's. I just picked up those retro 1's white and they look sick, they get a lot of attention and are really comfy.
They match with pretty much anything and they're a good convo starter with sneakerhead girls (which are always dtf :banana: )

I had to do it. Switch out the white laces for black on the black pair and youre good to go. I don't think I can go wrong with either these or my Adidas. Anyone notice a difference between high top and low top Chucks? I might have to exchange them for high tops because they feel funky.

low tops are more comfortable over the long term IMO (unless you leave the top 2 holes unlaced on the hi tops). I think Lo tops look better w/ shorts, and w/ pants you can't tell the difference.

good call on switching out the laces for tone-on-tone.

picked up some timbs before i left for europe. really quality craftmanship. vibram sole, leather lining, and gore-tex material. love em. they're all suede though so they aren't mean for everyday wear, but i thought they were a good purchase.

What do you guys think of these?

Picked them up tonight. Will they go with black dress pants and black shirt?

I'm not so much of a cloths horse as some of you guys, but thought they look cool. Just not sure what to wear them with.

Black goes with pretty much anything. If you want to change/match things up, maybe some suede pants and a blue shirt, with maybe a matching suede jacket?

Jordans are alright, but I don't like how they look with regular size Levi's. I can only wear them with my baggy jeans.

Everything I'm finding says not to wear black with brown shoes, but I think they are going more with the suited down or business look.

The colors don't show well in that pic, but they are toffee and calk blue, two tone oxfords.

Here's a link to them on endless;

I'm thinking they might go well with some nice blue jeans and a white button down and maybe a nice charcoal Hugo Boss jacket.

Not sure about with black dress pants though.

Please stick to the topic of casual tennis shoes for jeans and t shirts. There are threads for nicer shoes.

Sorry I blew up buddy. Didn't realize this thread was for juvenile sneakers only.

*Looking at the first page, which I did, it's not all "tennis shoes".....

They look cool if you're 50+. Now, stick to the topic buddy.

Get a pair of Mions, I dont care what shit people talk, they're comfy, and their interesting enough to start a conversation

though they're not sneaker, if you want really casual:

and they're good for your feet

Both you guys have to be kidding me. You get big time negative style points for both of those entries.

I like those Ralph Lauren Houston, I used to rock a pair like those. Aldo makes some pretty dope casual shoes as well.

Ive seen those Polo joints with a leather shoe lace thats def how I would wear them although I wouldnt be caught dead in Polo sneakers b/c to me they send the wrong message Polo is kind of played out.

For a casual shoe for a jeans and a white tee -- no button down over the white tee -- I def say hit it with a pair of Jordans or Air Max with a nice jazzy colorway. Maybe New Balance with those nice J. Crew exclusive colorways. Basically anything Hypebeast promotes let's be real.

ON another route, we could do a dressed down Cole Haan brogue with the nice neon sole that are hot and to be honest when they get played out you can just paint over the color and make them into something new again.

At the end the day, you're gonna go with whatever your heart desires which is in the vein of those Polo sneakers which is cool that's how you get down.
