Strangely enough I have the opposite of your pics. I have black canvas Cousys and black leather Center Hi's. I love them both. I don't wear the leathers often (that's like a Fri or Sat night out, which I often work nowadays =( ) but the canvas are great as beater shoes. They are basically Chucks with a slightly different look to them (mainly that 'gullwing' upper area). I like my shoes looking a little dirty and beat and I stay away from white completely so I can't really comment on that. I guess the only thing I could say for sure is that the more you wear them, the faster they will get dirty.

I have the Center Los, I love them and I wear them everyday. It's more comfortable than a pair of Chucks and they are a little different. I like the silhouette of the Cousys better. But really with stuff like that there really isn't a right or wrong answer since both things are really comparable.

I would go with the Cousys here because I don't have any white leather sneakers. You can't really go wrong.
