In this particular neighborhood of the forum, No. In SW&D, probably.

I think it would make you look you're trying awfully hard to be hip.

There may be some sneakers that can look good with dress pants, but IMO, Sambas are too decidedly sports-oriented to work that way.

No, not there either. Give us some credit, it's not like we're completely devoid of class or good taste. MC seems to have grown more elitist in the past year or so.

I personally think they look decent.

I'm a GQ whore so that's probably one of the many factors why I trust the look.

I love my pair of Sambas as they go with just about anything......except suit pants.

Big no from me.

I'm still wondering why a guy who claims to buy 3200 RLPL suits bickers about the price of a shirt.

I'm callin troll on this one.
