And I would like some of you alls opinions.I already have my "dressy" (kenneth cole) shoes, so I need some sneaker/athletic shoes. I am looking for something simple, no high tops, no chucks, no skater shoes. For right now I got it down to these choices (I've always worn adidas since I was a little kid) it doesnt have to be adidas, maybe some air force 1s in the mix

and these

I've had 2 pairs of superstars and I love em.

I'm thinking about getting both since I need some black shoes to match my black shirts and the superstars to match my blue stuff (basically all i got). These are fairly cheap.And if you want to help out, let the price tag be under 80 please:)

Just in case you can't read between the lines:Give me a link to some shoes that match my criteria listed above, thanks.

:help

no chucks...bastard!

I suggest New Balance, being they don't look too goofy, and are supposed to be really comfortable.

I'm used to walking in them, not a problem once the shoe gets broken in.

I have a set of the adidas high top "racing" shoes in grey nylon with green stripes and yellow high lights. I friggin love them, they are super comfortable ( and I usually ****ing HATE shoes, I always wear clogs). A big plus is that I'm kind of tall and they give me extra leg room in the 240 because they have very very thin soles. If I could buy them again I would have tried to get suede ones, but I like the grey color which they only made in nylon. Anyway I vote for the adidas, thought I don't like the low tops as much.

Converse dawg! hehehe.

I always wear New Balance, cause the are good quality, comfortable, and they are usually right around $50. Which is a fair price.

Just got back from the galleria, found out the white ones got discontinued:( So I went with the black ones instead those were my next choice anyways. I checked three places and only one had them in my size (12) and I also got the blue superstars:)

I love the first one, probably just because everyone and their mom has a pair of the second and they are soooo 90s JNCO style.
