get solovairs instead of doc martens

[@FinanceHustle]

I like the breakdown of iconic shoe styles. It's great to make sure to have these staples to match with any outfit.

[@plaxification]

All you need is 1) Low-top slim sneakers (Goes well with shorts & summertime) 2) A Mid-top chunky sneaker (Goes well with most casual pants) 3) Boots (Goes well with most casual pants & for rougher weather) 4) Dress Shoes (Goes with formal attire for fancy events obviously) Get colors that are a similar or same shade of pants you own.

[@Kylirr]

Wrong

[@plaxification]

@@Kylirr to each his own but that worked out well for me after buying dozens of shoes

[@gergo7507]

This is great if you are into streetwear but probably not with more formal outfits like business casual.

[@Nulljpg]

You just got finished watching an alpha m video huh

[@arko9151]

Why would you match shoes and pants

[@CrispyFrenFry]

My personal core rotation took years to save for and assemble. They are as follows: 1) Allen Edmonds Strands in Walnut 2) Alden Longwing Bluchers 3) Vintage Florsheim plain toe Bluchers 4) White’s MP Sherman Boots 5) New Balance 993

ASICS gel lyte 3 gets very little love in the “all time classic sneakers” convo. They’ve so versatile, generally very affordable, and come in a variety of atypical color ways. Not to mention 1000x more comfortable than af1’s or chucks. After years of buying over priced, over saturated jordans (no disrespect to Jordan fans), the ASICS gel lyte 3 has become my go to signature shoe.

As a Jamaican I appreciate that even GQ knows no shoe collection is complete without a pair of Clarks.

[@ivand0007]

Nah

[@fongdimbulator]

My shoe collection only expanded beyond a daily loafer/sneaker plus a rare dress shoe for special outings when I started being more active. Once you start branching into jogging, gym, trail running etc the shoe collection explodes.

"boots can be a little bit pricier, this for example can be around 400€" Wow man, i consider a shoe expensive if it is more than 100€... 400€ for a pair of boots is just unreachable for 95% of people out there

[@marktroup2978]

But... a $400 boot is gonna have a good thick leather and a Goodyear welt, so the leather’s gonna age like a fine wine and you can resole it a dozen times. You’re talking a twenty-year boot.

@@marktroup2978 yeah you might be right, still i dont think it is a purchase many would make . anyways nice vid

[@AwesomeJimJam]

@@marktroup2978 ah come on, we’ve all seen that old boot story that encapsulates the plight of the lower-class individual - the wealthy man is able to afford that $400 purchase and won’t have to buy new ones for years. the poorer one has to get a cheaper pair of boots or whatever since they can’t validate that expensive purchase but will eventually spend more since theirs break down. i think the sentiment here is generally “ah man sucks that this video made me believe that unless i’m dropping over $200 on shoes that i can’t be *in* with fashion trends”
