When you're wearing a graphic tee, the rest of your outfit should be quiet. That means:

• Jeans: Dark or medium wash, straight or slim fit. Avoid ripped jeans if you want to keep it coffee-shop casual rather than grunge.
• Chinos: Khaki, olive, or navy chinos are a great alternative. They dress the tee up just a notch.
• Shorts: Only if it's really hot, and only in a tailored style—not athletic shorts. Cargo shorts can work if they're not too baggy.

For shoes, clean sneakers are the obvious choice. White leather sneakers, classic canvas, or even a pair of minimalist runners. If you're going for a slightly dressier look, a pair of clean suede desert boots or loafers can work too. Just keep them clean. Dirty shoes will drag down the whole outfit.
