This is my second pair. I wore the first pair after two seasons and didn't take good care of them. Anyway, I'm 42 years old. It's very easy to throw on a pair of flip flops and just go, but sadly gone are the days when I feel like I can get away with wearing overalls on Vans or Converse. The boats are played. The gray canvas is best of all - comfy, super casual shoes, but it doesn't look out of place on me. I'm almost tempted to buy another pair just to stick in my closet when I need a new pair in a few years. They are comfortable and breathe well enough that my feet don't feel sticky.
