Oh god, that deserves another post. Those quasi-boat shoes are BADDDDDD. Why the **** do you need/want that much tread on shoes with that little support?

I'm not surprised that your style =/= my style, but I don't ever see myself rockin boat shoes. I dress somewhat preppy, but those shoes only go with khaki shorts + no socks. If that's the case, I would rather wear the polo flip flops i posted earlier on this page.

Are those shoes not popular in the states? They are probably the most sold Timberland shoes in Germany.

It looks like someone attached a boat shoe to the sole of a boot. Not a great look, unless you want to be able to go mountain climbing in your boat shoes - then you've got the best shoe for the job.

A version of that shoe is popular in the States, but it doesn't have nearly as thick of a sole.

I don't like the American version either fwiw

Not that it's a bad thing, but you will be INSTA-spotted as a Euro if you wore those.

Yeah, I like the version as well, but I love this version a lot more!

Obviously a good thing! Goes without saying.
I will probably be spotted as a Euro-guy rather quick with my style.

I meant any 18-25, but "both" is also acceptable I guess.

What are regular shoes, until a few months ago, I had some sneakers, but I think leather shoes are a lot more comfortable.
