I'm going out for my friends 18th birthday on saturday, the club they are going to won't let me in with trainers (unlike most clubs I go to). I don't want really really smart 'suit' shoes, can anyone recommend any smart/casual ones that will survive in a club?

Any shoe will survive in a club for just one night. If you ain't gunna wear them more than once don't bother with brands or spending much and just buy black, brown or tan for less hassle. Take your pic from the link

n.b never go a club that requires 'shoes' or 'collar'.

chelsea boots ftw.

absoloutly hate shirt and shoes clubs

get yourself a ben sherman shirt thats 3 times too big, and some timbelands that have been worked in for a couple of years, or some rockport and you are fine.

wear some decent trainers and a smart tee and you aint. cunts

Been trying to find a nice pair of Chelsea boots for a while. Really like these but if anyone knows a cheaper alternative let me know.

I got told to `take it off or get the fuck out` in ref to my head gusket by a thug bouncer the other night. I was like ~~`seeya` and left coz it was a shit club anyway. head gusket was how I was rollin that night , I dont take it off for nobody.
