Just don't roll up your trouser legs, or wear shorts or cutoffs. Cutoffs plus those shoes would definitely put you in the "flaming" camp. As long as you wear your trouser legs down then the shoes will look like normal hightop Chucks. But then, what's the point, I guess. And don't tuck your BDU's into them either, that would just look wrong.

Depends on what the rest of the guy looked like to be honest. What you make of it is what you make of yourself.

Now THAT's a set of high-tops.

Not for me, but whatever floats your boat.

I've had simular chucks. Black with white laces and brown with brown laces. I roll my cuffs and definitely don't look queer. It's like a nice, lighter alternative to wearing your 14 eyelet steeltoes in the summertime. The colour is up to you, but the actual design is great.

Sure, why not wear them? That yellow is horrid though, but I don't see how one could look homosexual in them.

I myself where similary high canvas boots, Underground though not converse.

gay as ****. Is what id say, but not really implying you look gay, or gay people wear the shoes. Just they are odd.

A gay man wouldn't be caught dead in something that ugly.

I think they would look great with a pair of shorts and some white tube socks just below the knee

I see you've seen me in the summer then.

I'd rock those, Hell, I had a pair of those. They don't fare up to well in mud. I had to sacrifice them.
