PF Flyers Number 5

Kate knows that I will not wear dress shoes to our wedding. Not even our own wedding? Yes. It's our wedding. Kate and I are calling the shots. Kate and I are paying a hefty portion. Kate and I will have our own style. But the one thing, up until now, Kate and I could not agree on is me wearing leather Chucks for our wedding (the ceremony and the reception). For the past six years my dress shoes have been leather versions of Chuck All Stars or Vans Slip-ons. I own about 15 Chucks, two of them being dressy counterparts to the classic black/white canvas joints. The other one is a brown leather, lo-top oxford pair of Chucks. Then I have all black canvas Vans slip-ons and brown leather slip-ons.

Well, Kate thinks they are still too casual. Anyhow, Kate and I have finally agreed on a pair of shoes. The PF Flyers Number 5. Everybody I talked to still thinks it's too casual but Kate and I have flare, yo. I'll rock this shit in a dope suit and it'll look hot. For too long, guys have been suited up like penguins and plain as hell. We're not quite traditional. We will both walk down that aisle as Jeff and Kate, not Jeff and Kate acting like a bunch of other people (not even on our wedding day). Like I said, it's our wedding. With that said, the shoes...
