can you guys recommend some sneakers that offer really good support? My Adidas really suck in this department and i've developed toe blisters on both feet recently, and this is even with insoles.

Man, at half price they're only comically overpriced, instead of insultingly overpriced.

Got the Common Projects in.
To tight, wrong color gray (not as dark as I like). No problem, gave them to my son.
So now I'm on the hunt for a Black pair of sneaks.
What are your thoughts on All Black?
I find my white Greats and white Nikes to be to bright in the evening/nite.
Would a triple black pair work?
Hoping to wear these to travel in.
I might spring for a pair of CP or just go with another pair of Greats.
Any other suggestions?

You're on your own on all black sneakers. Are you a nurse? I have nipples...

I just equate all black sneakers to people whose jobs require them to make that bad decision. But you be you, with your ugly shoes.

So far it's been all boots and Chucks. So I bought a pair of all white sneakers (Greats). But they seem odd to me come evening/nite out. So I'm thinking an all black pair might be more fitting |

This is like trying to determine if you like green shirts by starting with an Iron Heart. Do I like Engineer Boots? Let me buy some Role Clubs to check. Can I drive manual? Ferris Bueller looked good in a Ferrari 250GT, let me check eBay for one. |

Time to upgrade to some nice leather sneakers, I've done my time in the cheep seats. |

I was going to say maybe try a pair of some of the higher end leather Chucks.
I've discovered that I look terrible in all black shoes though so I never wear them. I will wear black shoes but they've got to have some white somewhere.

Docs are about as close as I've ever come to wearing all black. Wearing green and blue Vans now. Screw a buncha dressing like my age.

Got the Koio's
Nice sneakers, very good quality.
But, not the look I'm going for.
Good thing my kids have the same size feet, needed sneakers and like that style.

Help me out guys.
I'm looking for a sneaker to wear to Europe. Something nice classic, to go from street wear to dinner out.
No high tops (to hot), I'd think leather over canvas, something that goes with jeans,chinos,slacks.

I've got two pairs that are black leather with black laces and side logo but a white sole and toe. They almost have a Common Projects tournament high look to them...and on that note, maybe give Common Projects a shot if you want to go into a much higher price range. |

Of course I can't find a picture of the leather Chucks I have anywhere right now. I bought one pair off of Amazon and the other off of Converse/Nike. They're hightops anyways though so I guess that won't be an option for you.
