Light, cool summer shoes?

[chronoaug]

If you don't wear them with baggy, ugly plaid shorts and a poorly fitting lacoste shirt i think you'll be fine. It's the same thing in gainesville, but i'm gonna get a pair anyway. I'm thinking the original ones in navy and/or oatmeal. I want a pair of the madras/patchwork slips too.

Anyone know how sperrys are sizing wise? I usually take a 10.5 or 11 in shoes and a 10 in chucks.

Yeah they look pretty horrendous to be honest.

These look pretty great. I know I've seen other shoes just like this... does anyone know of one (pref. for less than 40GBP)?

Are there any uniquely colored or designed boat shoes out there? Maybe a break from the norm would work without going down a certain path.

i always thought these boat shoes were cooler than top siders: http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/21286609/c/790.html

I've had these for a long ass time. Thought they would break down but they've actually help up really well and are pretty thin. Not exactly the most original or unique but definitely work with a tee, jeans, and a slim hoodie for cooler nights. Pretty hard to screw that up.

Its all about the Superga's for me. They look great with apc ns and shorts. Oi polloi have just restocked these

What's the opinion of Lacoste boat shoes like these http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2930794/...bo=2385180&P=1 I know they're a bit branded but I think they're cool.
