New Balance Sneaker
"While I would not immediately co-sign a man who wears these on the first date, this flip to the sneaker of the moment is pretty sweet for a weekend look. Your man might be a recovering indie rocker who is trying to step his game up from Saucony, so throw him a few points for effort. If he pairs them with well-fitting jeans and a good attitude, give him the benefit of the doubt and lose your fear of showing off your tattoos."

New Balance 574 Sneaker, $75, available at Urban Outfitters.
