So I have a Formal coming up for school and I am dressing properly for the first time.
I have a pretty black, pinstriped single breasted suit white identical pants.
I was thinking of buying vans to go with it though, as I know I'll scuff the hell out of whatever fancy stuff my parents buy me.
Is there any alternative dress shoe? Particularly Vans that would suit what I'm wearing?
<3 youzzz
Complimentary boobs for looking at this infernal thread.

Well you can wear Converse all-stars or vans sneaks with your suit and look like a douche, or just wear those dress shoes you never wear and be decent.

When you are going to wear converse with a suit you are going to look kinda like this:

So I'm going to +1 Reise, and I'd say just be decent.
In the end it's your choice anyway so do whatever you like.

That's not suit genius.
And Converses doesn't look bad with suit. You don't look too formal with them but still formal enough. You have to buy new converses though becouse if they are dirty and little broken they look stupid with suit.

Its a formal...what about just wearing dress shoes. Kids these days complicate things too much..or care too much about what others think.

What are vans? When I saw the thread title, I thought it was talking about vans like a Dodge Grand Caravan, or a Chevy Express Cargo Van or something. I see this is something to do with dress shoes?

I'm very well aware of that
It's just the global picture I used for the example.
Since the thread is about shoes.

Yeah just go for the dress shoes. Vans will make you look tacky and weird. If its formal dress formal, no shortcuts noob.
Since its a school dance, unless its prom I say nix the suit just where dress pants, dress shoes, and a nice colored long sleeve dress shit with a tie.

DumbDoii has the right idea, thanks a million!
I'm only thinking of getting these as I could wear them again, and they'd last longer.

Just wear chucks or a regular pair of black slip-on vans. I own both and I think I have a similar suit (suit jacket) and both pairs match with it so I say go with it.

I think most people just stare at 2 things in the picture - and it's definitely longer than 3 seconds.
