Preferably something that I could wear mostly w/ jeans and buttoned shirts/sweaters but occasionally wear with shorts. I'd like to keep it under $100, but whatevs.
I currently have the grey version of these (I think) and they are falling apart. they're also a bit clunky w/ shorts:

Do you like the Tom's shoes? They're cheap & sweeping the country. Chucks are timeless...

i would tell you to get a great looking pair of AF1's, but they're not well liked on the west coast.

no, I couldn't really wear those to work. toms shoes are sweeping the country. I don't like most of them, though. Maybe they have some new stuff. I will check.

yeah, I rough ridin' hate tom's.

I can't even stand to wear athletic shoes with most pants, and definitely not jeans. My wife is always buying me these designer type tennis shoes and I just feel rough ridin' ridiculous in them. I have no conscious logical basis for this. I see other guys do it and it seems ok, I guess.

thoughts? advice?
-
You should get a lighter color depending on how tan you are.
I have invisble socks. They don't stay put a lot of the time, but having your top half of foot covered is good enough, won't make your shoe all sweaty and smelly. Once shoe is broken in, won't hurt your heel.
-
I don't wear socks with them. And yeah those are too dark, imo.

thanks guise. I ended up going with these.

I liked Fanning's Puma suggestion. I used to wear them all the time. I haven't owned a pair for a while now, but I'm sure they are still very comfortable shoes.

If you find yourself wanting a dressier alternative to the sneaker, you might try a pair of boat shoes. With their “prep” and “Ivy League” pedigree, these classics have experienced a huge resurgence in the past two years in high fashion as well as everyday wear.
Seems uppity.

Were you wearing these the night of the Royals game? Those looked good.
I've been enjoying these this summer:

Looking forward to a new pair of these for the fall:

I think we're getting chum1'd here
I have those shoes. Probably because I don't really give a crap. I like not really giving a crap. And judging from the reactions of people who apparently give a crap, they convey that I'm clearly not into giving a crap. I like that, too.
-
I just got some new shoes for work. They're Dockers. Got them at Shoe Carnival.
:cool:

Good for you. (seriously)

everyone gives a crap. even the people who claim not to.

He explicitly asked for opinions on his shoes. Hey I don't give a eff about what people think, but I'd like to know what you think about these everybody. Ironically looking like a clunky shoed dumbass is great though. eff you world, he just doesn't care.
-
When I say that I don't really give a crap, I mean that I mostly don't give a crap or that I I only kind of give a crap. I don't mean that I thoroughly don't give a crap. (I agree that this practically never happens.) (Besides, I essentially said that I do give a crap at least insofar as I like looking like I don't give a crap.) Instead of "not giving a crap," substitute "not as strongly opinionated/fussy." Thanks for the opportunity to clarify!!
-
it's just a pet peeve of mine b/c i give a crap.
-
I care about people thinking that I don't care. V. important to me. Like don't let me catch somebody thinking I give a damn.
-
I'm finding giving less of a crap to be a major perk of aging. Don't get me wrong. I still obsess about trying not to get too fat and all. At the same time, I sort of enjoy wearing my old, stained neon green running shoes with olive colored denim pants and black socks. Because why not?
-
aren't you worried that the weight of those massive shoes caused your knee injury?

You kind of think you're hot crap because of your apathy. I won't say you're wrong.
-
Diabetic's shoes? :dunno:

What if I find myself in a situation where I need to chop some wood? What kind of injury would I be risking with inadequate footgear?

Is he dying? I don't know. So tragic. I better be extra nice to him!

J-dub, buddy, pal...why the heck did you get shoes that look like they should have laces but don't?
-
I have those sperry stripers in white. Very comfortable. Great slip on casual etc shoe.
At the debate where I'm trying to decide between basic cowboy boots and ll bean duck boots for the fall/winter
-
I'd go with the latter.

No, I just don't understand why you'd want laceless, slip-on shoes that look like you're just too poor or lazy to buy laces. To each his own or whatever.

At the debate where I'm trying to decide between basic cowboy boots and ll bean duck boots for the fall/winter
Now this is a great debate. Find some basic Nocono boots and you'll love them if you decide to go the cowboy/wellington route. LL Bean makes wonderful duck boots. Get the 6" or 8" versions and be sure to get Gortex, Thinsulate, or both. The unlined versions only make sense if you live in an area that's always warm. Get lining if you want them to be ideal for KS falls and winters.
-
maybe you made a promise to youself to never wear a work or casual shoe with laces again.
-
I went from 2006 to late 2013 without owning a pair of shoes that I need to tie laces, with the exception of running/workout shoes. Do you know how much time I saved myself over that time period?? I'm guessing a couple of days.
Now there are some days when I'm running a bit late for work in the morning and the last thing I want to do is tie my effing shoes. :curse:
-
Also, are there any other Toms guys on this site? Those are pretty comfortable shoes, dude.

the bumps on the leather are called quills and you purchase spurs separately.

Get some Justin Boots. You won't regret it.

Justins are serviceable. Definitely do not get Noconas.

Recently purchased these...not all Toms look like elf/kung foo shoes. And those laces are optional because of the elastic tongue straps :D

Huh. Yeah, I'm on board with any backlash against this.
