Lot of the seniors at my firm wear On
If you're gonna wear On, you may as well wear literally anything else as those shoes are so ugly
They make casual / Stan smith style sneakers as well. Not just the athletic ones
Nutmegger probably wears Nike Hyperdunks to the office.
Drippy supreme on the weekends
Feel like I always see people with the Cole Haan dress sneakers
Anyone have any recs for Cole Haan styles
I think these are the ones a_guy is talking about (Zerogrands): https://www.colehaan.com/mens-2.zerogrand-lined-laser-wingtip-oxford%C2…
Those look disgusting I’d rather straight up wear normal sneakers or dress shoes.
Any sleek white leather sneaker IMO (Common Projects, Koio, Thursday Boots to name a few)
I also came up with common projects. Maybe an alternative? I had some and they werent that special in terms of quality
Axel Arigato Clean 90s
New Balances
Alexander Mqueens or Jordan 4s work best imo
Margiela Replica GATs all the way
Didn't think anyone would say this but yes. The best. Have the tan myself and worn to work on our casual days several times. Gorgeous and stable shoes.
Fucking great shoe
Solid white or the tan / gray / white?
Napa Valley White Leather Sneakers from Thursday Boots are goated
Depends on your office vibe. IMO wear proper trainers, running shoes with slacks just looks douchey imo but to each their own.
Am a big fan of Axel Arigato white leather sneakers but have seen clean simple kicks in the office from Common Projects, Koio’s, Margiela, Saint Laurent, etc depends on your price point but I’m a sucker for Arigato - made in Portugal and can find them brand new online for like $150-160 a pop. Better value for me than dropping $400 on CP’s / $800 on YSL. I like McQueen but for me is a going out shoe, the chunky sole / silhouette is too much of a “fuck you” for me in the office but maybe you can rock it!
New Balance, Veja, Cole Haan, Greats The Royale
Second vejas. Kind of a Stan smith or AF1 feel but appropriate for the office
yea agree, some vintage nikes can also work well. Forgot to mention Le Coq Sportif also kinda nice
Can’t answer your question, but I personally hate sneakers that try to look like dress shoes
Margiela Replica GATs for sure

Zegna Triple Stitch
This is the only right answer and I don't know why it took so long for someone to say it!
LV Trainer Sneakers
Don't wear sneakers to replace dress shoes. Ever.
But if you really want to...go with Nike Dunk Low Medium Currys.
Has anyone tried those Amberjack dress shoes? Apparently they feel like sneakers while looking like dress shoes. Was considering buying them when dressing casual with a Lulu-esque dress pants. Anyone have any thoughts on these?
absolutely hated them and didn't think they looked that good in person
Good to know!

I'm at an SF EB and my associate often wears Yeezy Boost 350s at the office
Congrats on Q
all white stan smiths. cheap and easy
Wouldn't wear sneakers to the office. makes you look like a child + unprofessional. I'd advise always being overdressed especially if you work in an industry with human contacts (m&a or what not). will never be held against you and you'll leave an impression of seriousness.
Lol false
Have both common projects and oliver cabell. Obviously common projects are more of the vanity play but I'm on by third pair of OC's. Reasonably price and last a long time. Plus I like the shape better than the common projects.
Nike force A1
Any Veja sneaker works well, as long as it's primarily white.
Long ONON

I wear $85,000 Yeezy Red Octobers to work and fight off multiple gangs during my morning commute. This makes for phenomenal cardio
I'm all about that comfort-meets-style vibe in the office!
Swapping dress shoes for sneakers is a game-changer, right?
Where the fuck do you guys work that this is acceptable?
