lots of stuff. first thing that comes to mind would be a slim black v-neck tee, raw jeans, and the cream chucks. simple, works for spring.

this guy has a lot of pictures wearing the cream colored chucks. this page starts in november 06, so start here and work your way to the present (each month is on the right side of the page):

Yeah if you want to be classic you gotta go classic (1)

Plus #1 picks up selvedge+indigo if you wear selvedge denim. That's a detail that pleases me almost indefinitely when donning this combo. Plus I've got a belt with a red/white cloth belt loop... perfect

personally i like the first and third ones.

the first are the classic looking and go with anything, while the 3rd have an unusual flare that i havent seen in any cons

the 2nd ones remind me of the old school adidas shoes, which personally i think are dreadful

as for the 4th it seems like there is just too many color schemes going on, white, beige, red, blue. of course unless you are wearing a shirt or something that has 3/4 by all means

i bought a two pairs of cons a few years back, one that i love and one that i hate. the ones that i love are a pair of what they call "hemp" they are kind of an interwoven khaki/beige.

and the others were well.... camo... ill just say they were on sale for $15 and leave it at that :P

err... no. If you inspect the pictures closely, you will notice, that only the first and the last have blue, red and white in them.

by 'picks up selvedge+indigo' i figured it somehow meant the indigo bleeds onto the white shoe. i guess it somehow means 'the shoe matches your selvedge+indigo jean, if you happen to have cuffs and a red selvedge line.'

You probably know this but you'd be wearing the Dutch flag. Is it because we play the most beautiful football in the world?

They look great and are dirt cheap. Do the fit true to size or big/small? I know that the CP version of that is nicer but I don't see how you can do wrong for $64. Do they fall apart or look like crap after a month?

I have pretty much the same pair but mine are perforated. I have had them about 3 months and worn them most days without any problems. I have had a few pairs of converse canvas trainers and these have lasted by far the longest and are still comfortable.

Much better than some other pairs i have brought
