Ditch the athletic shoes. White athletic shoes (otherwise referred to as tennis shoes or sneakers) are stereotypically American. Any shoes that don't look like they were meant for exercise will suffice. If you do wear socks, make sure they're dark or match the color of your pants. Flip-flops are also very noticeable as American attire, unless you're in a country like Brazil where Havaianas reign, or Australia or New Zealand where the Brazilian flip-flops are also ubiquitous. In most countries, open-toed sandals (Chacos, Tevas and Keens) are borderline at best, and may be totally unacceptable. Shoes are always the safest bet in urban areas. However, these are quite acceptable for hiking and active outdoor pursuits, just as they are here. Also, Crocs, the popular foam clogs, may be ubiquitous in the US, but in most of the world are regarded as ridiculous in the extreme and are worn mostly by gardeners and the very young, if at all. Sneakers like K-Swiss, Vans or Adidas in a dark color with no or very subtle logos are much less conspicuous and are a good compromise if you are planning to do a lot of walking.[1]

Well now you know what NOT to wear if you go to Europe.

At least if you don't want to be marked as a typical American tourist.

It's a safety thing as well. If you stand out as an obvious tourist...more likely to be targeted for some scam or theft.

The Earth is flat so no we all live the same because we are all on the same plane of existence.

Odd. I find them ridiculous in the extreme and I am in the US.

I also agree with their assessment...

They’ve made a major comeback among female students at LSU this year. It’s inexplicable.

So is it supposed to be like the just rolled out of bed look of baggy tshirts and nike running shorts that was the LSU uniforms for girls several years ago.


So sad...these girls in their prime beauty years and want to put fricking Crocs on their feet.

What do.you imagine growing up different child hood memories with different regions?

Yep. European tourists are so damn easy to see.

Dude, I so get you. One time I stuck my cock in a coconut and it felt great. Then a snake bit me in the ear and things went south. I sprayed butter on the racoon and it climbed the tree and crapped jello.
