I work in men's high end retail clothing where we make sale and make custom suit. I am always perplexed how many men miss this important part of their wardrobe. It can be somewhat disappointing when you work hard to get a gentleman looking their best by getting them in a great looking and fitting suit, only to look at their footwear and they have a pair of cheaply made shoes. I try to inform them of how the suit and shoes work in concert to complement each other. I tell them you just spent 2500 to 5000 on a suit but only want to spend 100.00 on a pair of shoes cheap Johnston & Murphy, Bostonian or other low end shoes seems counterintuitive. Men please if you can afford it, invest in a high quality dress shoe. Companies like Adlen, Allen Edmond, Peal & Co, Crockett & Jones, and Edward Green are great options and all have recrafting program. This will extend the life of your shoes for many years. I meet a attorney awhile back that had a pair of Crockett & Jones cordovan shell leather shoes for 20 years! Taking about cost per wear..lol!

I heard lots of used allen edmonds go on $40-50 on ebay. Pretty sure if you shine it well and take it to a cobbler, depending on its condition, that would be pretty solid enough to make it look brand new

A Rivera, gently remind your customers that women are very much into shoes and they definitely notice and appreciate when a man wears a quality, appropriate style, and well-maintained pair of shoes. And just like the GG host suggests in this video, quality garments and shoes are an investment that have a better long-term payback than their cheaper, throw-away "counterparts." In some ways, the shoes are the foundation of the clothes you've selected to wear, just like the foundation of a building. And you wouldn't want to build a great house on a weak foundation, would you?

As a (relatively) young man interested in exceptional fashion, thank you very much for this video! I always looked up "wooden soled dress shoes" because I absolutely loved the sound but didn't know what the material was. No wonder I couldn't find it! Nothing says "a dapper man is coming" like hearing that sharp and weighty "tack tack tack" of (what I now know to be) leather soles. Much appreciated!

Forgive me for being late to the party. Great suggestions, especially about buying quality shoes. One thing I would point out is, you can get good shoes on sale or go with factory seconds, for not much more than a cheap pair of shoes. As for the specific suggestions, they are solid, but let me offer a little bit of a perspective. I am in one of the few professions where I have to wear a suit almost every day and I haven't worn my cap toe oxfords with one of my suits in several years. So what do I wear with a suit? Black monk straps. Black plain toe Derbies or Bluchers. Whole cuts in dark chili or light brown. Dark brown or Walnut half brogue bluchers. Or even dark grey Chromexcel leather full brogues for a change of pace shoe or as a slightly dressier alternative to a loafer. On the other end of the scale is the whole loafer thing. Don't get me wrong. I bought my son pair of black loafers last year because he needed a black shoe for his high school orchestra concerts, and he just isn't ready for black oxfords yet. But I have found the loafer just isn't for me. i used to wear penny and tassel loafers, but I have found they don't stand up to our winters and in summer, I am fine with lighter colored lace ups. I am not saying my judgment is any better than anybody else's. But I would say it depends. It is possible that in Boston or in New York, for example, that Black cap toe oxfords isn't too dressy. But I find in the Midwestern city I live it, it is, for all but the most dressy occasions. Might I suggest that you suggest 5 possible shoes, and that the viewer pick 3 depending on personal preference and lifestyle. For example, Black oxford, a good wingtip, brown blucher or derby, loafer, and maybe a good pair of boots.

I am a strong proponent of oxblood as a shoe colour, it is remarkably versatile, very elegant, distinctive and sophisticated, there is a certain level of variation between shades of oxblood but the deeply wine-like part of the spectrum is even applicable to Derbys and brogued Oxfords, I consider that the colour is particularly attractive to wear with navy blue trousers and suits of similar shade. The loafer is a tremendously practical shoe, incredible variations in design and always elegant, yet informal. If they have a fine shape and get proper care they are a highly effective resource in one's wardrobe. As a student I rely upon loafers (and many of them in the oxblood family) almost every day.

I bought a pair of Manchester tassel loafers from Allen Edmonds from a thrift store. The shoes, when still made and sold, went for $400+. I got them for $9. They were badly scuffed, scraped, and scratched, but they were wearable and hade developed a desirable patina. I got out my disinfectant and my polishing materials. I used brown cream polish and used black cream polish at the toe and sides to supplement the patina and make the damage of age more subtle, and it was a complete success! $9, and some tlc, got me a pair of shoes that many would spend hundreds of dollars for, and they look fantastic!

I live in Scandinavia where the weather is volatile most months of the year, that is wet. Would you still recommend a leather sole on an Oxford dress shoe or would you recommend a rubber sole? I have some pairs with leather sole, but I'm always conscious about wearing them when it could potentially be raining. I know that a galoche (rubber cover) is a good option, but when going out partying or going on certain events this is not fitting because I do not know where to store them etc. What would you recommend?

+Lance G Hi! what a lot of people do where I live is to have dress boots (look up Carmina, Edward Green, etc, for example) that they go in snow with and simply change when they come to work! you have have a pair of black Oxfords well polished at work that you only wear inside. if it is just mildly snowing you can wear galoshes. I just want to end with, there is nothing completely right for the whole world when it comes to these matters! people live in different climates and these old rules has been made up for curtain places. what is important is that it look good, is fairly practical and that's is classic. Also, going around in snow with dress shoes may give them salt stains. The shoes are simply just not made for these conditions. So I would say that your problem is simply fixed because you are going to a place where you can prepare! the problem comes if you are going out on a restaurant, club, or a home party etc. You do not have the whole plan for the evening and you do not know where you will end up etc. I will simply not bring a bad with a pair of shoes i just don't do that. what I do now is just that I'll have a nice pair of shoes with rubber sole that I can have both inside and outside and I'll hope that the day after tomorrow just won't happen that night.

Apply (or have a cobbler apply) a replaceable rubber backing sole. It doesn't show, and makes your shoes last a lot longer. Leather soles are really impractical for anything other than indoors in a northern climate, so this is a compromise.

Would say that a thin goodyear velted Vaibram sole, is kind of difficult to se from the side. Better grip no silly sound when walking. Softer to the foot not so hard. Better insulation against cool. With lether sole you have the problem with: 1) grawel on the street 2) salt 3) snow 4) weet dirty snow 5) someone cleaning the street and spraying water all over. Or spraying stuff fore some otherreson. That you do not want to steep in. 6) you got to walk on gras some times. 7) forcast say rain 10%, what are you going to wear. 8) forcast says 0% but it poores down. Lether sole looks nice on pictures, but 9/10 times feels just silly to wear. It is like having a tuxido on the beach. What looks nice in a picture is probably not a good answer to what feels good and works well with your life style.

So I just got a job in a business office setting that has a casual dress code, but sometimes requires more semi-formal outfits. My boss told me I could wear jeans if I wanted. I will mostly be wearing chinos and dress trousers, sometimes denim. So my question is, would it be better to start with a more casual shoe in this case that I will be able to wear more often? I do not yet own a suit and so would not have something to wear the more formal oxfords with. I was thinking for my first shoe to get an oxblood monkstrap or a brown blucher. I like the colour of the oxblood and really love the look of a monkstrap shoe. Is it unwise to get a monkstrap for my first dress shoe?
@davidcattin7006
@davidcattin7006 7 жыл бұрын
A brown monkstrap or double monk should be fine. It sounds like the dress code is pretty casual, and the monk is going to work better with a variety of pants. Also, less common so it will give you a little style edge. It will dress up the denim and chinos and still look great with a suit. Bluchers can come off a little "old" or conservative, so I'd go with the monk. I got a great Hugo Boss double monk at Off 5th in Chicago last September. My first monks, and I love 'em!

Just a quick comment: Derby is pronounced "Darby" in the UK at least where Derby is a city here but most of the people in the world say Derby

math check, wearing $92 shoes every day for a year is also 25c per wear

I am not trying to be edgy but 1:53 isnt true, if you calculate 50/(6*30) u will get about 28 cents per wear. So the cost is about the same and not drastically higher as you said in the video.

I'm not a buisnes man or a doctor or any other important kind of professionals, I'm a regular guy with a non profession career, so I don't think that I can wear these things one day because there is no event or place can handle it for me , although I can offer it easily but I feel sorry for not wearing it .

Get a pair of shoes in the right width then. Most better shoe companies offer different widths. I suggest you try on a few to test it.

I have a shoe repair shop and it is unbelievable how many people don’t care about shoes. I see wealthy people who have to dress up every single day to work and they wear 100 dollar shoes. I just don’t get it. Part of the issue is the lack of availability of good shoes in my area but that’s probably because of lack of demand. I’m sure if there was a market for higher end shoes someone would sell them. These people think they are saving money I guess. Really they are spending more and getting less.

My problem is I don't have any occasion to wear formal dress shoes. For me, they would probably be the last thing I'd buy or not at all, because I would barely wear them.

I am not a huge fan of a brogue pattern on shoes. It reminds me of a 70's Texas oil tycoon owner a bit much.

I would rather die than be caught wearing a loafer. The style simply does not work in 2015. At least not if you live in Sweden and don't want to seem like a douche. Also, my personal opinion is that brogues look dressier than ones without.

I actually refuse to buy black shoes, leather just was never intended to be treated that way. Same goes for any color that is more paint than dye. If I cannot see the natural beauty of the leather, then the cobbler or designer did the worst of "sins". As such I boycott most black in my wardrobe, unless it can be paired with cordavon or brown.... Just my own personal style, by and by there is almost no good reason to spend the same on black as they can and do use leather that would be considered too blemished for brown or colors in which the grain shows through. Besides the dying process for black is extremely hazardous to the environment.
