Men are typically not picky creatures when it comes to their shoes. Most are most comfortable in a good pair of tennis shoes and that is that. However, it is good to mix up your shoe choices now and then. For men, there should be at least four different pairs of shoes in their closet. This should include sneakers, dress shoes, sandals, and boots. This makes sure that you are prepared for any occasion, rather it means going to work, attending meetings, heading to the beach, or out for a night on the town.
The two most popular types of dress shoes for men are oxfords and loafers. These shoes are great for work, meetings, or any time really. They look great and feel great as well. Oxfords are ankle level, tie shoes for men. They come in several different styles and kinds.
Some Oxford style include bluchers, which are opened laced oxfords, and balmorals, which are closed lace oxfords, as well as saddle, kilties, and wingtip. For a more formal type of shoes for men, the best one is close laced oxfords in black leather. These look great with double breasted or pinstriped suits. If you choose the same style, but in the color brown instead, these look wonderful with sport jackets and tweed suits.
Open laced oxfords in the colors of oxblood or brown are perfect to wear with almost anything such as sports coats, light suits, khakis, and even jeans. It is best to always choose real leather, particularly for the business man.
Loafers are more of a casual type of shoe for men. Their design has flat heels that are wide, as well as moccasin looking top that is both broad and low cut. Again, there are many different styles and types. You can choose from tassel loafers, buckle or monk strap loafers, moccasin loafers, and penny loafers. Not all men can pull off just any loafer look.
For example, younger men would do well to steer clear of monk strap loafers in a brown color. These types of shoes are generally reserved for those men that are middle aged. However, in the color of black, they will look great on any man of any age.
The business man wearing tailored or business suits should stick to Tassel loafers. However, this type of loafer in suede is great for the casual dress, such as jeans or linen suits. If you are a man who likes to wear polo shirts coupled with shorts, you should know that the only type of dressy shoe that can pull this look of is the suede moccasin and penny loafers.
