which shoes should i wear?

Windycity · Feb 16, 2010

Hey guys,

I know questions like these probably come up here pretty often. Anyway, I got a couple new pairs of straight jeans. What type of shoes would you wear with this type of jeans? Im used to a little slimmer jeans and i usually wear all stars with those. But they dont really go that well with the straight jeans?? So what would you recommend?
PS. Im in my teens.

Thanks for the help

In your teens? Can't really go wrong with something like a jack purcell or similar. (Assuming we're talking casual)

easiest answer is clarks desert boots with straight leg jeans. i get what you mean in that chucks and jack purcells usually look too slim with straight legs.

Vans, Chucks, Purcells, PF Flyers.

, but arent the clarks a little to "nice" and "classy", for a teen?

you'll feel that initially, but after a while you'll get over it. if you still feel self conscious about them being a bit too dressy, my chill-out sneaker is a puma clyde. the remake is called a puma suede. if you could find the gray ones, they'd be perfect. otherwise black, brown or navy is fine.

other common options are adidas allstars or campus - quite similar to the clyde.

That's just my taste though. some people might not like them.

Wear Vans or Chucks or knockoffs of the two. Everything else will get you ostracized. Style is mostly about being able to pull it off.
