Dapper or Crapper? Jerad’s Yellow Sketchers with Khakis

Jerad had the big brass ones to send the inaugural submission to “Dapper or Crapper?”, wherein readers submit pictures of their outfits and ask other readers to pass judgement. He asks, “Should I wear these Sketchers shoes with khaki pants (like I am in this picture)?”

Our take: First of all, more often one should match their shoes with their shirt or belt, so you’re not giving us much to work with. There is some question as to wearing such a mild yellow with khakis, but I don’t think the shoes clash enough to matter…if they were clean! The suede looks like you store your sneakers in a septic tank.

It’s my opinion that loud sneakers need to be clean as hell, be they stark white or some gaudy color.

You might consider dark socks, too. At least then they’d suck up some of the light that might otherwise reflect off that suede.

Verdict: Crapper.

What say you, peanut gallery? Too harsh?
