I like those in the first picture (New Balance, right?). I usually wear sneakers, so I prefer ones that don't look too gym-like, i.e. can get along with casual or more formal clothing both, and go with both white and black socks.
Dunno about other parts of the world, but around here black shoes (or sneakers) with white socks are considered very low-class (but not the opposite), so I'd feel uncomfortable wearing such a combination. We call people who wear it "Hercegovci", after people in a region of Bosnia who got rich very quickly during the war but didn't gain the class that goes along with the money.
