But yeah, i want some quality ones. I'm a karma whore so eexpect it for help. Heres a photo

um are you referring to the style of shoe? if yes they are called loafers
are you looking for a dressy type shoe or just something casual?

Mocassins aren't bad for outdoors. I have a pair of Sperry mocassins that have a rubber sole so it's all good.

Get a pair of leather Sperry top-siders. They're like the shoe you posted but more comfortable and old school. No socks and top siders=amazing.

Oh, and Sanuks are the shit. That pic looks really weird because the shoes are built to fray around that awkward sole part on the side of the shoe.

Most comfortable shoes I have ever worn.

check steve madden. they have a ton of dressy casual slips. I've got like 4 pairs, solid with jeans and a button down when going to the bar or dinner, kinda dresses everything up.
