What Do You Think Of These Sneakers

[Anonymous]

I am looking for a new pair of sneakers that will replace my pumas. I can't seem to find another pair of pumas I like. I am on the fence about these

i like them ok, but they seem a little too light colored. Have you looked at puma outlet?

[Anonymous]

I think they are cute.

Where is there a puma outlet?

Ok, but the light color is a little off to me. Are you looking for knock around shoes? I, also, like Pumas.

PP is right about them getting dirty. More important, shoes should never be lighter than your pants unless you're in the gym. They're great for a light-colored pant but I suspect you will be wearing them with jeans. I'd go with a bright or dark color.

nah - There's something about them that reminds me of the movie, Napoleon Dynamite.

I agree with Pumas.

Ooo...I like them!

hideous, like the ones worn by the homeless woman outside the CVS on Wisconsin Ave.

Have you worn Earth shoes before? I like the way they feel, but some don't. The heel is lower than the rest of the shoe.

PP -- are you talking about sneakers/tennis shoes ONLY? I assume that is what you meant.

Don't love the sneaks, but they're not really my style. I'm more a ballet flats kinda girl,which is why I asked PP what she means by shoes being lighter than your pants. Wondered if she was suggesting that metallic ballet flats can't be worn with jeans.

metallic ballet flats can be worn with all manner of things. Shoes need not be darker. Very old school rule. Check out the women in Italy. Rich cognac shoes with black pants, dark brown pants, jeans, etc. Red shoes with many different color of pants, etc.

I must say, I'm not a fan.

Sorry, OP, I don't like them either. They look cheap. If you really do like them, I bet you could find a similar pair for a lot less money.
