Hey, just a quick question concerning casual clothes for school and out to eat. Usually, I wear some kind of nike/adidas athletic shoe, but I feel like I'm "growing out" of this and want to look more mature.

While at first glance, the popular boating shoe looks like a fine choice, but every person at my school has these: http://z.about.com/d/shoes/1/0/a/K/022406_boat_shoes.jpg

I was looking for something a little more original, until I found Wallabee Clarks: http://www.shoes.com/ProductImages/Shoes_iA05517.jpg

I read some reviews online and found that they can last over 10 years, and while they can cost a little more than 100 dollars, I think I'm making the right choice. I think they would look good in pants and jeans only though (no shorts :()



TL;DR: Do you think Wallabee Clarks would be a good casual shoe with jeans or pants?

yes I wear them, their pretty comfortable and durable. I don't know about them lasting 10 years though. Anyways get the black suede or black leather ones they go good with blue jeans. If you decide to get suede ones be careful as they are really hard to clean.

Ghostface pulls them off :). You might want to check out some Alife Kennedy's, though. They're based off of Wallabees, but are a bit less formal and more sneaker-y and come in a lot of different colors if you can find them.

Cool, I'll look into Alife Kennedy's.

Does anyone know of a brick-and-mortar store or chain that would sell Wallabee Clarks? I just want to go in and make sure I get the right size and try it on.
