Depends on your office vibe. IMO wear proper trainers, running shoes with slacks just looks douchey imo but to each their own.

Am a big fan of Axel Arigato white leather sneakers but have seen clean simple kicks in the office from Common Projects, Koio’s, Margiela, Saint Laurent, etc depends on your price point but I’m a sucker for Arigato - made in Portugal and can find them brand new online for like $150-160 a pop. Better value for me than dropping $400 on CP’s / $800 on YSL. I like McQueen but for me is a going out shoe, the chunky sole / silhouette is too much of a “fuck you” for me in the office but maybe you can rock it!

 

Second vejas. Kind of a Stan smith or AF1 feel but appropriate for the office

 

yea agree, some vintage nikes can also work well. Forgot to mention Le Coq Sportif also kinda nice

 

Can’t answer your question, but I personally hate sneakers that try to look like dress shoes

 

Wouldn't wear sneakers to the office. makes you look like a child + unprofessional. I'd advise always being overdressed especially if you work in an industry with human contacts (m&a or what not). will never be held against you and you'll leave an impression of seriousness.
