mmmm what do you think of these shoes? http://www.zappos.com/polo-ralph-lau...en-canvas-grey

I am a teen in HS. What would i wear to pull that off with these shoes? and do i wear them with socks or? The color scheme on the site is sorta different from real life. The ones in real life is grey canvas and blue pony. rest is white.

Probably nothing, as there isn't any piece of clothing that wouldn't flee from them... This way --> http://www.styleforum.net/showthread...07280&page=147

High school's still big on showing off logos and stuff I'm guessing, so I won't try to sway you from that (for now). Just about everything Polo produces falls into the prep category, so best with khakis, seersucker, shorts even. Sockless fine, probably preferable. The remark above about fleeing from them; some guys just like to hear themselves talk.

Unless you'd rather pay an extra $20 to have that pony label.

And FUCK.

Do whatever you want if you're going for a "certain high school look." In reality, they're pretty mediocre and you'd do better (and cheaper) buying Vans authentics/slips.

I think you've answered your own question. Go for 'em.

(Being decades older than you, the only thing we had in high school with a logo on it were Chuck Taylors and boy did we ever try to show those babies off.)
