Cool Need Shoe Recommendation (Weird I Know)

does anybody know a shoe with this design but is not heavy and can be worn casual to clubs, everday, etc with a pair of jeans and a collar shirt? something comfy and easy to get around in?

Yeah, but depends on how much you want to spend. I personally like Donald J. Pliner, about $300-375, but other really great shoes are Kenneth Cole $125-$175, and Aldo $60-$120. Look them up online to see the varieties, but all of these brands will last you at least 2-3 years.

+1 on the Ecco's. I have a pair pretty much like that, and they're very comfortable and look great!

Most of the name brand shoes mentioned suck. They are constructed of rubber soles which are glued on rather than using superior goodyear, blake or rapid stitching and are constructed of corrected grain or plasticized leather which is neither comfortable, nor holds shape well. This results in heavy creases and a short life cycle. They are often way overpriced as well due to heavy marketing.

I would also avoid very trendy duckbill shoes, bicycle toes shoes, etc and instead go with styles that are more timeless. If this is what you are looking for then forget what I just said.

Ecco makes good comfort shoes but lack in the style department, especially if they are for clubs like you said. Might make a decent everyday shoe. Their construction isn't as horrendous as KC, SM, Aldo and others. Cole Haan is hit or miss, they make some good shoes and some are absolute junk.

You can either be truthful when someone asks a question in life or blow smoke up people's asses. When I know a little about a subject I do the former. When I don't know enough to make an educated opinion I stay quiet.

I would expect the same if I asked a question regarding a subject I had no knowledge about.

Check out www.johnstonmurphy.com. They have lots or dressy shoes, but you can surely find something similar to the Clarks that you displayed. I have many pair of J&M shoes, and love every pair.
Good luck in your search.

Can't go wrong with Bruno Magli or Johnston & Murphy, but I wouldn't wear them at the club, they get ruined real fast.
