So I need to get some casual shoes that I can wear with shorts, jeans, khakis and linen pants? would Sperry's fit the bill? Is it a big no no to wear Sperry's with anything other then shorts? What about some Steve Madden's or Puma's.

Damnit I was hoping y'all would post some advice first

You should have a few options in my opinion (one just won't work)

Get some sperry's but if you fucking wear socks with them I'll kill you

then grab some jack purcells (converse) or some vans for cas(ual) days

and some driving mocs for a lil dressier occasion


(I just consulted the jcrew site for pics because I knew they'd have all 3 but you can get this stuff anywhere)

it must be sweet to have a choice of shoes that will fit your foot

[Edited on June 4, 2012 at 10:32 AM. Reason : get one of the ones with the light up heels]

Vans definitely, slip on if possible.

6/4/2012 10:34:22 AM

vans? is it 1998?

steve madden's quality has gone to shit since like 4 or 5 years ago, and every pair ive bought i've ended up throwing away in short order. they're on my "don't buy no matter how it looks" list now.

just an fyi.

6/4/2012 10:36:03 AM

yes Vans... and your statement would make more sense if you said something like 1984. Vans are great casual shoes, very comfortable, actually last a long time for being canvas (for the most part), and are fairly cheap. I think I own 6 pairs.

6/4/2012 10:38:45 AM

These are my new shits for summer



If you don't like 'em, you can suck my dick

6/4/2012 10:39:10 AM

Steve Madden is finally stepping up it's game in the girl's shoes arena with ShoeMint.com

but yeah I agree, for a while they were shit

[Edited on June 4, 2012 at 10:40 AM. Reason : the vans I posted are way cute/acceptable PUSSYSHOES]

6/4/2012 10:39:44 AM

^^ HAHA

^ yeah, dont really like the ones you posted haha

6/4/2012 10:41:24 AM

well ill be a monkey's uncle

6/4/2012 10:41:54 AM

must we bring up the button down shirt/crew neck tshirt debate jaybee?!?!?

6/4/2012 10:43:00 AM

pssh, the never ending debate... never leads to anything. I say stay on shoes

6/4/2012 10:43:49 AM

Get Sperrys. You can wear them with damn near anything except fucking socks. Every time I see socks with Sperrys I just want to kick that dude in the dick.

6/4/2012 10:49:21 AM

say whatever you like but since cole haan teamed up with nike (for nike air) they have be come my favorite shoe supplier.

Never had a pair of shoes with such soft leather and comfy soles at the same time... + women seem to know that they're cole haan... dunno how but i've received more compliments on my current shoes then any i've ever had before.

That being said steve maddens usually last me 6 months and i've had these for 8 now and they look brand new.


I have


and


but i don't know how to wear the 2nd with shorts. (no socks? short black? ??)

[Edited on June 4, 2012 at 10:50 AM. Reason : .]

6/4/2012 10:49:21 AM

you dont wear them with shorts haha. not exactly my personal style, but they would be fine with pants, but I think they would look retarded with shorts no matter what you do

[Edited on June 4, 2012 at 10:51 AM. Reason : d]

6/4/2012 10:50:46 AM

the whole sans socks thing is the primary reason i don't own any sperrys. which, if you know me, is somewhat surprising.

hello. my name is pilgrimshoes and my feet sweat a lot.

6/4/2012 10:51:02 AM

i agree... usually if i wear shorts i wear not shoes (sanuk's) lol

i never liked boat shoes my feet always blister in them

i have huge feet too so i sorta look like a duck any time i wear shorts.

6/4/2012 10:56:47 AM

sparky, have you looked at any Toms shoes?

i've got a pair like this that i wear with shorts, chinos, and jeans now and again.

6/4/2012 10:56:57 AM

lol yeah its weird but my wife got my the 1st set of cole-haans last year and now i won't wear anything else

hell i don't even care if they're ugly they feel like pillows on my feel

/metrohomo.

6/4/2012 10:57:46 AM

oh they're ugly alright

the Toms are fun too, but I wasn't sure sparky was ready for all that hahaha

6/4/2012 11:01:15 AM

probably going to pick me up a pair of these before the summer ends

DB is correct.

Do NOT get and faggy Toms shoes.

I have also heard good things about the Cole Haans with the Nike Air in them. I may have to check them out for my next dress shoe purchase.

I do too. Thats why I every couple of months I put a new odor eater insole in. They work like magic. Also, Cole Haans/ Steve Maddens shoes are fantastic. Especially this style,

[Edited on June 4, 2012 at 11:05 AM. Reason : .]

6/4/2012 11:04:23 AM

i also own these and wear them with jeans, shorts, and to work with khakis all the time




soft brushed leather so they look very casual

6/4/2012 11:06:14 AM

[like]

6/4/2012 11:07:14 AM

too much sole on those cole haans. I hate dress shoes with thick rubber soles

6/4/2012 11:09:14 AM

ibWHAT!THOSEARENTDRESSSHOES!!

6/4/2012 11:10:20 AM

im kinda glad that i changed jobs a few years ago and just wear sneakers and jeans to work now

i actually just donated like 12 pairs of chinos, keeping one just in case something weird happens

i fucking hate chinos

6/4/2012 11:13:21 AM

some people confuse shit list with "you wear ugly ass shoes" list

don't be a douche Toms give a pair of shoes to a needy kid for every pair you buy and that's way better than nike sweatshop labor

6/4/2012 11:20:07 AM

DivaBaby19 thinks 90% of what I wear is ugly, but I dont *think* im on her shit list.

6/4/2012 11:20:16 AM

exactly

lol, do tell why your fire burns hot with hate for chinos.


like true chinos, the heavier twill more casual than dress khakis or all khaki/slack/dress type pants?

6/4/2012 11:22:48 AM

whats the name of these?

6/4/2012 11:26:46 AM

omg please stop posting those shoes

they make my eyes burn lol

6/4/2012 11:27:15 AM

To the OP, why do you need a shoe that will do all of the above? Can you not afford more than one pair?

i think they're called Granddad's Rockports.

6/4/2012 11:30:01 AM

THANKS T-DUB!!

I like these...



and these



the main reason for getting these is that at my new job we have casual Friday, but no sneakers....i was like WTF. so i need a casual shoe I can wear with jeans mostly but aren't sneakers and while i was at it would like something diverse.

6/4/2012 11:32:04 AM

while we're on the topic

i kind of want these
