That's because people don't buy the right shoe. Any of my dress shoes are as comfortable to me as sneakers, with the benefit of not feeling like I'm walking on marshmallows. I pull the sock liner/ insole out of my running shoes, in fact.Well, one reason they stay away is that they're stuffy. And that they are often thought to require relatively uncomfortable shoes.
What makes them stuffy? Because you associate them with businessmen? Could I not flip it around and say sneakers are trashy because wife beaters and thugs wear them?
If one were to attempt this, it should be a simple shoe. Your first pic is extremely incongruous. The second is better by comparison, and the last would be close if not for the big red accent. Why does it need to be synthetic or canvas? At least get a leather upper. https://us.jfitzpatrickfootwear.com/collections/sneakers
Not my style, nor do I think it flows all that well 2ith the sole, but they are closer to the spirit of a suit than a pair of patchwork NBs.
