Tip: when you feel like you have nothing to wear, start with the shoes. The shoes will set the tone for the entire outfit, so consider how formal the event will be. If it’s just class at uni, start with a comfortable shoe that is not dressy and build your way up, so on and so forth...

For those interested in saving money, Adidas now has a low cut all white shoe with a leather upper called the "Nizza RF". It is currently for sale on the Adidas website for $48 (marked down from $80). It is lower cut than the regular Stan Smiths. It is similar to the old Jack Purcell canvas sneakers, but with a leather upper and some leather lining. It does have a minimalist heel pull but no labelling markings except for an almost unnoticeable 'Adidas' in grey and white on the tongue. In addition there is stiching on the sides instead of the air holes, reminiscent of the old KSwiss sneakers. Very nice for the price, but comfort wise a lot like the old Jack Purcells (not terribly cushy). I will add that the more cream colored sole contrasts a bit with the white uppers which I actually like . . .

Great tips Courtney, totally agreed! As someone whose personal style is obsessively basic and minimal (exclusively black and grey), here's what I've found: - Chelsea boots are awesome, just don't approach them like dress shoes. No patent or highly polished leathers, no flat soles and low heels, no pointy toes. When in doubt, better to go slightly chunkier. This avoids the "skinny jeans and Chelsea boots" stereotype. I love Blundstones for daily wear- they go with everything- and I like Beckett Simonon's Preston model for a slightly nicer look like dark denim and a grey blazer. - I wear boots and high-tops exclusively as I have a weird aversion to showing my ankles, ever, and I think the taller profile of a boot makes for a nicer visual transition from foot to leg. My dress shoes are actually dress boots. Loake and Herring make a variety of great models, decent quality leather for very affordable prices, made in the UK. - Since I usually wear black, I go with a black sneaker instead of white. High-top, of course. Recently graduated from Jak to Crown, and I love them. Never used to think of myself as a "fashion sneaker" guy but now I really enjoy wearing them. - Don't shy away from taller-shafted boots. I've worn a pair of Chippewa 12" engineers for over 7 years and 3 resoles and they're still going strong. This is a secret weapon for short guys too- the naturally taller heel of engineer/motorcycle boots can add a half-inch or even a full inch to your height. - All of these look better with slim, straight jeans or a very slight boot cut. The hem should reach all the way to the shoe- no excess fabric stacking, and definitely not cropped above the ankle. Skinny jeans are over, guys- and if we're being honest, we should all admit that they never looked good in the first place. Straight-fit pants looked good in the 60s, and in the 80s, and they're still the best option today.

Thursday Boots are my go to for almost any outfit year round (also since theyre leather it took a while for them to break in and for the first couple times I wore them they hurt my feet but after you break them in they're great) and white or black Vans for spring or summer. Also Timberlands are amazing for most situations, I personally wear mine hiking/camping and in the fall/winter.

Just a word of caution on the magic eraser tip, the reason they seem like magic is because they actually scrape away a slight layer of the shoe's fabric each time you use it--creating the appearance of the dirt/grime/gunk being wiped away. They are good for spot fixes here and there, but for really deep cleaning, it could end tearing away more of your fabric than you'd want. For my white shoes, I use a shoe spray with a brush or a towel and that seems to do the trick. Big tip is to absolutely clean your shoes as soon as possible from when you notice that they're dirty, otherwise it will have more time to set in and be harder to clean later on

Being diabetic and having neuropathy on my feet I am fairly limited to just using my orthopedic shoes i get from my podiatrist. That being said I do have dress shoes in the case of interviews or weddings I can wear, as I don't have them on long. I am thinking if I can find some boots, and all-white sneakers with removable insoles, I can put my orthopedic soles in them instead. I'll also have to get more of them too, but it seems doable!

Ahh Thursday boots, when I discovered discovered them like 7 years ago I felt in love with boots. For me it is always complicated, I travel plenty and mostly to warm climates, can't carry many shoes and boots/dress shows in Thailand for a day out are not a great idea. I am the kind that has never liked the white sneakers but I have to admit that they simply work, in mi view you may get a pair with a little distinctive detail or slightly different shade from white to look a bit different and it is all about what do you combine it with, I really despise looking like everyone else but you can pull it off. Now, never forget the al mighty crocs, they work everywhere and for all purposes in you are in Asia xD

Touched on it with the sneakers, but it applies to the other styles too. Take care of your shoes/boots. Especially if you go for leather. Shoe polish and leather conditioner along with a quality shoe/boot will make it so your investment lasts for years. Great list. That being said, my preferred boot is a leather lace up from Red Wing boots called the Blacksmith in a color they call Briar. I've had them for years and they're a great boot.

I think this is good advice; start with the basics and go from there. Good suggestion Courtney 👍 It rains where I live (Ontario, Canada) so on those days I wear a pair of black Nike “Duck” boots (they are like AF 1’s) but are waterproof. It also snows where I am, so I wear either a brown or black Dakota 529 work boot. Also use those when cutting the grass/gardening.

My favourite are sneakers, but black. There's almost no issue with getting them dirty. They look clean even if I don't have time to brush them, they can be dressed up, they can be dressed down, they are extremely versatile. But accidentaly I have almost the same set. 1. black sneakers, 2. shoes for workout, 3. winter boots, 4. more elegant pair to wear with a suit, or generally to dress up. Plus a bonus: shoes for "special operations" like walking in the woods, hiking, shooting range, generally where they can get dirty easily.

White sneakers are versatile and do indeed look great. The fabric ones are very cool but even harder to keep clean than the leather ones. New laces will revamp white sneakers but only to a point. Basically you will forever be trying to keep these shoes clean. But here's the thing - they are still worth it because you will get a lot of admiration - sharp with true (very dark) navy jeans. If you get just one cut above budget, that extra ten or twenty dollars can make a massive difference in quality - and you can still replace your footwear without breaking the bank.

Good video. I appreciate your opinions, but I have two points I'd like to make. Sneakers, whether white or not, are worn by teenagers or when exercising. That's it. No self-respecting adult male with style would ever consider sneakers as a go-to form of footwear. Boat shoes are way more comfortable and stylish. Sneakers should be for sports/exercise purposes only. While I whole heartedly agree with Chelseas and Oxfords, how about Derbies and Monk Straps? And how could you not mention loafers? From penny to horsebit to tassel, loafers strike the perfect balance between casual and business casual as they can easily be dressed up and down depending on the occasion.

As usual the girl is spot on. My only addition would be for dress shoes and boots don't go cheap, make sure they have replaceable soles (Goodyear welted) and get rubber Dainite soles for adverse weather. Being British means good quality shoes, such as Cheaney, Barker, Loake etc can go back to the factory, put on the original lasts and have a heel and sole replacement and come back looking like new.

The standard for men's dress shoes, as far as I'm concerned, is the black Florsheim wing-tip oxford. I had several pair and had them re-soled and re-heeled dozens of times. Good video, Courtney!

Any thoughts on hiking boots?,I wear them quite a bit because my legs look worse when I wear shoes or sneakers with shorts.

Good on the dress shoes and boots. Got black and brown leather sneakers half off with after Christmas sales. It certainly upped my jeans and chinos game.

Funny, I already have something similar to these. I also have some specific winter shoes since it's so snowy and salty.

I think the most versatile dress shoes are black oxfords without broguing because you could wear them even with black tie

I would add a 5th pair- an all purpose beat up/work pair of shoes you can wear that you don't really care about too much. Not because they're stylish, but because you can wear them when you need to do something that might get them dirty or messed up and save your good shoes for when you want to look good.

@2:00 what about a minimalist white sneaker with a gum sole? Can a sneaker like this still be versatile like the all white sneaker in your video?

I tested many clothes before covid and one look came out on top and had many, many ladies moving chairs and tables for me, waitresses cleaning tables for me and being greeted in coffee shops time and time again...twice I was asked if I had a love interest..this was in three day periods. From the top down...Dark Green beanie hat(I have long brown hair), Ray bans, light blue jumper(v-neck), white T-shirt, Long light grey button-up coat, smart grey jeans, tan leather lace-up shiney shoes...and a smile, without teeth showing. I stood at a bus-stop recently and was offered two lifts...by pretty ladies. I smiled, thanked them both and told them I enjoyed buses...they gift options to rarely be stuck in traffic.

The only thing I can up of is in the boots side. Army Combat boots the Black is the best tuff souls wear like steel polish them up can be used as a dress shoe if needed, My pairs that I had lasted me over 5 years there one of the long lasting boots if you take care of them. When you polish them up there also water prof to a point.

I have a total of three pairs of sneakers. One for playing tennis, one for working out and running, and a mostly white adidas sala shoe. I'm really more of a shoe guy. I like real leather more formal shoes and boots...etc. What do you think about a white leather shoe? I don't have any, but I just happened to have the white tennis shoe, it's by mistake. If white shoes are a must, which dressier white shoes would you recommend?

Love the channel Courtney. Just wondering, as a mature guy at 61 y/o, do you think white sneakers are too young of a look for me? I'm trying to keep a classic look, not sure about all white...but I do love my clean darker colored sneakers.

I can do a better recommendation: 1) Black dress shoe (Oxford) 2) Dark Brown Loafer 3) Lighter brown brogue Oxford or derby 4) Chukka boot (NOT Chelsea that’s for girls) preferably in suede 5) White Sneakers 6) Gym shoes/Trainers Best Brands: John Lobb, Edward Green, Gaziano Girling, Common Projects, On Running. However these are all expensive because they are in fact the best you can buy for a ready to wear shoe excluding bespoke options. All together this cost me around $7,000 since I picked the best in each category. If you can’t or don’t want to pay that much I’d highly recommend Carmina in Spain for many of these options. Quality is outstanding for the price. White sneakers/gym shoes just do ones you like that are comfortable and look good to save money if not picking from brands listed above.

I think the most versatile shoe you can own is a dark brown Chelsea boot. You can wear it casual to business and all year round, unless it's realllllly hot or realllllly cold
