Against the Law: Sneakers and Suits

In celebration of Lil' Thunder's success and in recognition of Fashion Week here in the NYC , I've decided to rant about a recent and disturbing trend in men's "fashion". I've noticed "men" wearing sneakers and carrying their shoes for their daily commute.

For years women have been slipping out of their high heels and wearing tennis shoes in order to commute more easily in the city. This is completely logical - high heels suck, one of the many reasons I'm glad I was born a man (an Italian man at that - I can feel the pride swelling).
Running for and jumping on and off trains, buses, elevators and escalators is virtually impossible in most women's dress shoes (or "Choos"). There are exceptions of course.

However, men's dress shoes do not present these problems. When a man leaves his home for the work day his outfit should be complete. He should not be carrying his shoes (along with his manhood) in a satchel. In real life, men who wear sneakers with suits never go home with the prom queen. Why emulate them?

...and that's why men wearing sneakers with suits are AGAINST THE LAW.

I have never seen that. This honestly happens? Like more than one random guy doing that? That should be against the law. Literally. As in a violation of the NJ Penal Code.

Oh yes, they're out there. I once tried to get a pic of an offender on my camera phone in mid-commute but ended up looking like a gay stalker. Not good times...

What is it that Freud said? Oh yeah - "Sometimes a cigar means that Dave Law is undeniably gay."
