Looking for "Slim" looking White Sneakers

[qom]

Hi

Looking for a pair of new white sneakers, been looking around for quite awhile now, I want to find a pair that doesn't look ridicilously big wearing my thin finns, which are ~15cm by the foot, so no clown shoes.

Intended to buy these at first:

But now I'm having second thoughts, the description says the have somekind of diamond pattern, but I cant see any due to shotguns crappy pictures.

You may also want to look at Chuck Taylors, Keds Triumph Lo, and slip on Vans. All of those are slim shoes that look great with skinny jeans.

I'm not that fond of slip ons for some reason.

The Keds wasn't that nice either, heh

And I think that the chuck taylors are way to known and used

i just got a pair of nike all courts and they look awesome with my julian reds and my h&m slim/low jeans.

i don't really have a camera so i can't get a picture for you, but you can pick them up foot locker for 80 bucks canadian.

Try Dior Homme Sneakers. http://men.style.com/fashion/buy_now/high_top_sneakers/dior_homme

They seem to suit slim cut jeans well. If u want a cheaper alternative, then get VANs

there's a pic posted on the "Shoe suggestions for skinny dress pants????" thread. they look pretty sick if you can find them.

qom - those shoes you linked look like adidas stan smiths. adidas runs pretty narrow. chucks and purcells tend to give me clowns feet, so i stick to sneakers. you could try the adicolor hi tops. try www.hufsf.com

you'd know if you were handsome

Thanks for you replies!

I've seen some pics of Swear shoes, and they look to 'dressed' for my taste.

I'd get a pair of dior shoes if they weren't Dior and costed $400

Few months ago I tried Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, I don't know how similar they are to the Stan Smiths, but they looked like clown shoes, and also I find Stan Smith to mainstream.

The Umbro shoes I posted looks pretty slick, but I want a shoe that's all white, and not some lame pattern.

german army sneakers = bundeswehr halle turnschuhe

Alien vs Predator, Freddie vs Jason, Nudie vs A.P.C.

[rogue audio]

Creative Recreation have a nice shoe in that style.

[su8m3rg3d]

both these shoes will kill both converse and vans..

[verver]

spring court

As mentioned, the German Army Sneakers are a good choice. Those shoes mentioned two posts above me are called TST and you can get them in black or white on Yoox...I think one of the dudes on the Nudie website is wearing them.

yea! been wanting to get a pair of those man.. always ran out of sizes.. any idea on where to cop a pair?

[ishboo]

look at Nike Blazers. Not sure if they make a white on white pair but they're really nice sneakers, look very thin, and keep their shape really well.

Oh, sorry, well, don't they have somekind of homepage or so?

They are out of my size on yoox.com and I'd like to see some other models, also I can't seem to find any TST shoes on ebay

Another alternative, that you might like are some Spring Courts (already mentioned). As you stated earlier you would get the Diors if they were cheaper...these run about $80.

I still haven't found any info on TST...you might wanna email Nudie if you really want them and ask them. These are available at www.stevenalan.com and come in Ecru or White and a few other versions. Personally I can't decide between these or German Army Sneakers...the advantage of these is you don't have to wait for shipping (or pay for shipping) from Germany.
