I spy a Pricilla's frequent shopper/club card on the key ring.

Lately I've been buying running shoes instead of updating my casual kicks.

So is there any middle ground between haute couture and the frat boy douchebag sneakers and cargo shorts thing?

If there isn't snow on the ground, I wear barefoot shoes (not the toe shoes).

My current shoes are out of production but the Merrell Tough Glove are close:



They are very comfortable and extremely lightweight.

I also have a pair of Trail Glove shoes for hiking.

I wear the Trail Gloves for working out. I like them quite a bit.

I'm currently either Reef Flip Flops, Chacos, or Redwing Iron Rangers.


Currently wearing selvedge denim, chacos, and this shirt my wife bought me for Father's day:

I think flip-flops are more frat boy douche.

I’ve tossed all my cargo shorts. Plain flat front only for me. But only wear them when its way too hot to tolerate jeans.

For shirts I wear button-ups most of the time. In summer I roll up the sleeves rather than opt for short-sleeve (never liked that look).


Despite my attempt to get away from sneakers, I don't think dress shoes look good with shorts, so my go-to shoe is air force ones like this but in a darker grey:

Going to Hawaii in November, my wife bought me a couple of "Hawiian shirts". Not gaudy colors, but kind of flower print. Comfortable as hell! Don't know why i didn't think of it earlier...and I like cargo shorts...tons of pockets and they look pretty good on me.

My cargo shorts have also become just work shorts for me as well. I'm also finding myself just rolling up long sleeves on my buttondowns more and more. I have some sweet short sleeves, but I just don't like the way they look on me as much as my long sleeves. I never wear 3 button polos any longer for some reason.

I'm gonna get some Old Navy's linen shorts next time I'm out. Saw them the other day and they look super light and comfortable. Only $20. Need a pair to bum around in other than my expensive linens.

Yeah, this thread cracks me up.

I wear comfortable shit, and I don't try to pretend I'm a fashion guru. But if you're pushing black sneakers (or half the other shit in the thread) as fashion advice, you need to re-evaluate.
