What's the general opinion on navy shoes with jeans?


I think they're great, but probably go better with shorts.
I was debating with myself how I would wear them.
Too close to indigo...and I feel like khakis or even grey jeans would just look lame with them

Shorts or black jeans imo. Maybe grey too but melonadejello might be right about that.

They're dope, I snagged a 42 from them also and they're a bit too tight on me.

looking to get one of these...
Common_Projects_Training_Boot_4.jpg


seeing as i have nowhere i can try them on without ordering them i was curious to see how these are worn. the hem of my jeans are typically between 6.75" & 7" are these slim enough to pull the jeans over without looking weird? or do you let them stack on top?

i think this looks pretty bad

haven't really seen to many pics of these being worn with slim jeans, can anyone contribute to this?

You might be over-thinking it dude. I'm sure they will look fine if you just put them on and let the jeans just fall naturally on them. I don't own this pair but I tried them on once and I don't see any reason why they wouldn't work with a 7" hem.

I do agree though that that rolled jeans look in the picture doesn't look very good with these shoes.

Sorry, can't provide any better fit pics, I'm sure someone here can snap a pic of their own or has a pic.

^I've posted several pics in waywt with training boots, wearing both tucked and un-tucked jeans. They are really, really slim through the shaft, so your pants "fitting over" the shoe isn't going to be a problem
