Personally, I'd rather have a pair of Etnies than any of the above - although that's just me!
Choosing what shoe to wear can be difficult. There are so many brands and styles to choose from that you can often find yourself not knowing where to start!
Here's a quick summary of what I think of each brand you've mentioned. (Maybe reading a bit about each of them will help you make your mind up.)
What shoes should I wear?
Sperry - Speaking as a guy, Sperry's men's collection seems a little bit too preppy for me.
Some of the girl's shoes are a bit funkier (I saw a pair with a cool leopard print design on the website), but the male options definitely stick to that 'boating' image the brand is based on.
If you think about it, you never see anyone other than preppy kids enjoying sports like 'boating' or 'kite surfing', so if that's the look you're going for, then Sperry might be for you!
Rainbows - Are big on sandals, so if you're going for more of a laid-back 'boho' image, then Rainbows are a good choice.
Crocs - Have quite a funky vibe about them, but, for some reason, I can't help but associate them with kids running around in a playground. There's something about their design that makes me think they're made with hyper 8-year-old's in mind. Not my thing really- is it yours, though?
Etnies - If you're going for the 'cool and edgy' look, this skater brand might be the one for you.
The shoes look comfortable enough, but it's that 'hipster factor' that does it for me!
