scott_jambo Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Do they exist? Obviously trainers go with sportswear Shoes go with formal wear. Casual wear...seems to just be an array of men looking like tits, either with trainers that dont suit jeans or shoes that look too formal and awkward for casual jeans. JKB Fashionista's - inspire me. I want to see something awesome not pictures of your lacoste trainers or your adidas sambas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 AP is with the desert boot shout. An ox-blood penny loafer with a pair of 501's also hits the mark, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling Archer Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 +whatever number we're at now for the Desert boots. To be honest it's going to depend on what sort of jeans you're talking about (cut/colour etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoJack Horseman Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 As above, any form of chukka boot really. I prefer a slimmer profile than the desert boot. Something like; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott_jambo Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 Jeans are mainly straight legged. Don't own bootcut jeans anymore or any tighty ones. Have a few colours of your chino's but that's a whole other debate... Colour, blue jeans, not really dark but not light blue either...usually get my jeans from zara.

The Brow Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Merrells? Deary me. They were always the shoes the special kids wore. You see loads of people trying to get away with wearing trainers that look like these Lonsdale efforts underneath. For a while folk I saw a fair few folk stoating around in the Adidas Y3 (the ones that looked like the Lonsdales), which were equally as boak-inducing. Absolutely horrible. Complete 'cool dad' efforts. Desert boots are probably the way to go if you're wanting to be 'smart'. Black gutties with blue jeans is a proper facepalm though. I have a couple pair of deset boots and a pair of Fred Perry MId-Length boots for heading to town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT1959 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Sorry no. Not sure if you are being sarcastic though? I'm winding you up scott_jambo sorry mate, but ugly white trainers with jeans were the norm when I was in my twenties. Nowadays,jeans would only be worn with Timberland Felt Gibson's or the daddy of all shoes .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have shoes similar to this, but unfortunately these fall under "formal wear" and while may look decent with a certain type of jeans, it's not everyday wear that I can pull on during the day.

Notbrainwashed Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Another desert boot shout. Camper also do a good chukka boot. Adidas do a trainer called the Tobacco - much cooler than a Samba and not quite as 'everyone has a pair' as the Gazelle. See size? on Princes st.
