If you’ve never bought a pair of men’s dress shoes, you’ll be surprised at how many different styles and colours there are to choose from.
The best all-around dress shoe to buy is a pair of plain black oxfords. These lace-up suit shoes can be worn to interviews, the office, weddings, and funerals. They are far from ornate or flashy and blend well with almost any suit.
Just because black oxfords are your best all-around option, this doesn’t mean you should pigeonhole yourself into just one pair of men’s dress shoes.
Shoes should be rotated each day so that they can air out for at least 24 hours between wears. Besides, there are many styles and colour variations to choose from and it’s a good idea to own more than one pair.
Before we get too detailed, you should know that each style of men’s dress shoes can be broken up into two categories.
These are the slip-on shoe and the lace-up shoe. Lace-up shoes can be tied in a balmoral style and a butcher style. Blutchers are open-faced and balmoral and use V-type lacing.
Black – The black shoe is the most versatile and can go with virtually any colour suit you have. This is the first colour of shoe you should buy.
Brown/Burgandy – Most suits will also accept this colour except a black suit. The darker the shade the more formal the shoe. If you want to get daring, you could even go with a chestnut-colored shoe.
