Shoes Help Please!

[imyourhuckleberryxx]

Whats going on guys? I'm hoping yall can shed some light on a shoe dilemma I've been having...

I've been looking to get a new pair for some time now. I have always been a very "basic" person when it comes to shoes. I've rocked the Adidas shell toes for more time than I can remember. Lately I've been sporting some Creative Recs. Both fit very well with my overall style. Denim and Tee's almost at all times. But higher quality for both. Mostly designer denim. Rock & Republic, Monarchy, William Rast and AG Jeans to name some. Nothing too baggy but nothing too tight either. Tee's are mostly heathered and fitted. Lots of v-necks.

I would like to know if these Lunargrands would go at all with my daily wardrobe? There seems to be lots of debate about wearing them with jeans and tees. I personally feel they are casual looking enough to not seem out of place.

If its a definitely NO for the Lunargrands I am looking to get a pair of the Pantofola d'oro. Just cant decide on the brown or gray. Cant remember the last time I had brown shoes. I've always went for white or gray.

Any input would be appreciated guys! Thanks!

Personally I don't mind the look of the Lunargrands with the jeans in your picture. The yellow sole instantly makes them more casual.

I'm not going to tell you what to wear, but soles that loud make me cringe. Maybe something a little more understated like this? The yellow, just ehh...and they're going to get dirty real quick.

I like the Lunargrands with the yellow sole. If you were rocking khakis and a polo in a business casual environment, they might not be the thing to wear, but with nice jeans and nice t-shirts, they are spot-on IMHO. To me, the Pantofola d'oro's seem to be trying too hard. Too much verbiage on the shoes and the stars just kinda get on my nerves. Keep the Lunargrands!!

I think those are great looking. And perfect for jeans and t-shirts. That's what they are made for.

Thanks for all the feedback guys! I still haven't made my mind up on a pair yet I've just owned anything other than sneakers so this is soooo foreign to me lol. I have definitely decided to cut out the Pantofola d'oro's. I really really like the Lunar Grands I'm just not sure about them working as my daily wears. I'm going to have a pair ordered by tomorrow though.

Lemme know what you guys think about these options...and remember I would really like to be able to wear these daily with my jeans and tees.





The gray with yellow soles from my original post are also still on the table as well.

Both Lunargrands are fine with jeans, preferably dark jeans but the Pantofola d'oro shoe are hideous!

The green and white ones will work better for every day. Long as you can keep the white clean, that is. The blue, however, is going to be a problem for you. I've tried 3 pairs of blue shoes so far, and I've tossed or sold each and every one.

I like the look but not the yellow soles.
White or brown would be better.
They're a step above boat shoes or Adidas without moving above jeans and a t-shirt.

Personally, when wearing jeans (or dockers outside of work), I'm either wearing my Sperry boat shoes, AE Yumas, or Rockport MainRoute (AE and Rockports are suede)

I guess for context I should post my jeans shoes. Call me dressy, but I love 'em.




If you're going daily wear, those neon soles are going to let you down unless you can miraculously keep them clean.
