I've narrowed my choice down to 2 pairs to wear with slim jeans and shorts. Which ones do you guys recommend and why ?

Both are top notch, but the spring courts have a little more pinache. Plus, the rubber toe will keep your toes from eventually wearing a hole through the canvas, which is a problem for many other shoes (vans, topsiders, etc...) By the way, where do you plan on getting either of these, both are kind of elusive?

I have the Spring Courts. They're not too bad, very comfortable. The shoe laces are WAYY TOO ******* LONG on them.

I would never pay full price for the Spring Courts..but they are worth every penny for what I paid..

That's funny, I though the first pair looked feminine.

(and I like functional details like the sole vents... and hate non-functional details like buttons that don't button, fake hood scoops...)
