Good summer shoe choice? Or no?

I need a good summer shoe that's good with both jeans and khakis.

Whatdya think? Alternatives?

noooooo.

yeah if you're on fucking miami vice.

i just snorted.

My shoe of choice. They go with everything.

WTF? They wear them on miami vice? They're a pretty damned cheap shoe for those Vice guys to be wearing.

get a pair of white ones and wear them with no socks and a pastel t shirt.

No trousers?

So what's the alternative? Can't do Converse or sneakers with khakis. That's tacky.

I've got some Clarks in brown and blue (the trad oxford Trek and Desert Boot). But sometimes they feel a bit heavy for this time of year.

come on, I need help. Quit trying to put me down just because I get around...

KHAKIS are fucking tacky.

Flip flops?

Actually I am looking for something that might work with no socks. And I just bought some pastel linen shirts from BR. Along with some white and some green khakis.

Maybe I am going with the Vice look.

i'm looking for a HEAAAAAARTTTTT BEAATTTTTTTTTT

Shoes with no socks? Won't they chafe?

No they're not! Not if you get the right kind. They're a nice alternative to jeans.

I got some really nice ones at BR for fairly cheap. They're summer weight and plain front, and they're slim but not overly slim.

I think khakis are tacky when they try to get either too dressy or too casual. Too dressy means pleats, too casual means distressed cargo.

You have to go for the plain chino looking ones.

no. sorry. they suck.


sexxayyyy

Nope, not w/ the right shoe leather, fit, and style.

Well, yeah, you know, you can find a bad example of anything. That is not what I'm talking about at all. And I know you know it and are just being difficult.

Plus I really doubt those are khakis in that photo. An 80s era suit pants for the Miami set does not a present day pair of plain khakis make.

no, they rly do suck in all instances.

mick jagger would never wear any of this shit. how dare you betray your idol.
