I Suppose it depends on whether you’re a top or a bottom.

I've worn Check Taylors all my life, but when every other teenage girl started sporting them, I had to put mine in the closet.

It's worth pointing out that all of these "casual" shoes aren't going to be the most comfortable shoes out there, at least not if you have to do any real walking in them.
Vans Classic Lites look good and are the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn.

As a former Journeys Store Manager.

I prefer vans and love all of my vans Slip-Ons.
But I would recommend the Converse Chuck Taylor II. They have more padding on the inside and are more comfortable than both the slips ons and the original converse.

neither passes the eye test. If you wear them for comfort, fine. If you're trying to make a fashion statement or look well kept, its a fail


White low chucks and authentic vans are some of the cleanest casual sneaks out there.

Then as you know Chuck's were great but in no way could hold up to constant skating. The canvas didn't stand a chance. Vans was always a better shoe but a pair of Airwalk was where it was at.
I'm 44 and I still skate occasionally with my 12yo and I think I'm going to buy me a pair of Airwalks for skate shoes because of this thread - thanks.

Yeah, and too many little girls where Chuck's now for me to even think about a pair of those.

At the end of the day it's all personal opinion but I'd argue that the Classic Vans are a cleaner look than the shoes with all the checks on them that LE posted, even though those look solid too.

That's what you think in your head. They have poor aesthetics & no profile. At least the high top chucks add some framing to your legs.

Im not saying all clothing goes out of style but with time comes improvements in style & comfort. Who wants to wear a boring, flat soled shoe when there are so many better options now? Step your game up
