I love Stan Smiths, but hate when they lose their pristine whiteness. So now I go with Converse All-Stars (sorry, Chuck Taylors). They're available in every color under the sun, my current pair are black nylon, part of the John Varvatos "designer" All-Stars (but apart from being not the usual canvas they look the same). I got them to see if they will remain looking "newish" (they should, being nylon instead of canvas, but time will tell). For a TSA-compliant pair I'm also looking at the faux-laceless variants, but haven't pulled the trigger on them yet.
 
I have no recommendations for leather, but for canvas sneakers I prefer CVO's as being a bit more adult-looking (to my eye) than the styles already mentioned . I just got a pair of Sperry Stripers, which I'm pretty happy with so far. My next choice would probably have been Vans.

This was a problem for the leader of the congregation, because he 1) wanted my friend's help, but 2) insisted that those who assisted with communion wear ties. He scanned the room, and his eyes settled upon a man wearing a skull-and-crossbones bolo tie. Apparently, that was close enough for the leader of the congregation, and my friend passed communion with a large borrowed skull staring out from his collar.
