On the right person I think they work that way. But that's not the look I'm going for with my khakis. Looking for something just slightly more conservative.

this is my secret sister everyone.

gmku 06.12.2008 04:58 PM

Okay well thanks, I think I'm settled on some deck shoes of some kind. I'll either get some Sperrys (cheap and available for 50 bucks) or these, which I'll have to Zappos order for a little more: http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7159690.html?

Doesn't the term "deck shoe" give you a clue?

gmku 06.12.2008 05:05 PM

Maybe you are. I'm just not convinced these look so uncool as you're making them out to be.

Um... no? Doesn't the term "Doc Martens" give you a clue? Sorry, I don't get it...

Okay, well, I appreciate the input. I did ask, after all.

eh, it's this
 

or this
 

over here, it's a bit hard to wear boots during the summer.

oooooookay.

Glice 06.12.2008 05:12 PM

Trainers/ sneakers are always going to be warm in the summer. Synthetic materials. It's all about a decent leather shoe, y'all. Unless you're going to the beach, but I'm pretty sure it's physically impossible to look cool at the beach.

gmku 06.12.2008 05:14 PM

And what would that be, Glice--the decent leather shoe, I mean?

And Orange Blank, I kind of like those shoes. Converse?

gmku 06.12.2008 05:16 PM

I dunno. I might just go with another Desert Boot, this time in brown suede. At least I know I like that shoe and know how it fits. Plus it's under 100 USD.

Or just wear what I have now and say fuck it.

yes, and yes they are leather.

gmku 06.12.2008 05:18 PM

Nice. That may be the ticket. I'll have to check them out on Zappos. I haven't seen them around here.

gmku 06.12.2008 05:23 PM

http://zeta.zappos.com/product/7208972/color/3123

62 USD and free shipping.

What do you think of the Converse Jack Purcells? They'd work nice with jeans or khakis but I hate the extra little strip of rubber on the toe.

Cantankerous 06.12.2008 05:24 PM

those are fine.

i ttly just ordered a pair of givenchy shoes

:bad:

gmku 06.12.2008 05:43 PM

Wow, I'm thinking the John Varvatos Converse rock, too, especially in black. They're a little more though.http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7337898.html

Yeah, they're getting pretty far from my original intention of finding something more versatile. But they are cool.

gmku 06.12.2008 05:49 PM

I love Zappos. I pick standard free shipping and the shoes are practically on my door step next morning. I don't know how they do it.

You never know. You could get picked to be the next Bond girl. They have boats a lot in Bond movies.
