Bought a pair because I needed black shoes for an event. They are comfortable and good to work out in, but I'm not sure if I should be seen in them in public. Wife says they are good for going to Walmart but nowhere else. I try not to go to Walmart.

TIA.

You let your wife tell you how to dress?

If you gotta ask, you're not cool enough to wear them

I usually buy up a few pair of ASICS cumulus or nimbus on the model years they release them. We can either wear all black or all white with our scrubs at the hospital I work for. White tennis shoes can look pretty nasty pretty quickly in the hospital when you’re doing patient care.

Something like this


Otherwise they look like Beavis and Butthead shoes

They look like non-slip shoes that someone that works in a restaurant would wear.

Those go well with flight suits.

That's about all I got.

I like them.
But I also have black wheels on my white truck and I’m OT trashy.

Who cares? You already have a wife so quit trying to impress other people that won't sleep with you.

They are more stylish than all white tennis shoes.

As long as you wear them right, these will work:

Not a fan, but I like them way more than the word "tennies."
