Are you wondering which shoe styles should rest in your wardrobe? Here are five shoes that every man should have lined up in neat rows in his his closet, ready to complete an outfit for any occasion that might arise.
The sneaker: Men and their obsession for sneakers will never come to an end. From basketball to Hip-Hop, shoes matter.. After all, you can’t be in the office all the time. And for relaxing on the weekends, chances are you will opt for a great pair of blue jeans and a laid-back shirt. When you’re in casual mode, make sure you decorate your feet accordingly by including a pair of stylish sneakers in your shoe collection.
The casual shoe: Casual wear is an important part of every man’s lifestyle. Since not every laid-back occasion is sneaker appropriate, you are going to need a second type of casual shoe. This second footwear option comes in the form of a lace up shoe with thin leather sole. Today’s casual shoes are sleek, structured, and void of any bulk, and will look spot-on paired with a straight-leg jeans.
The black dress shoe: For those high-brow formal occasions, or for a regular day at work, the black dress shoe is a classic item of footwear to own. There are no exceptions to this rule – you can mix and match the many available styles of dress shoe with slacks and suits.
The brown dress shoe: In today’s fashion world, brown is the new black. While black is still a classic colour and reserved for ultra-formal occasions, brown has become an acceptable alternative for occasions that are less conservative, yet still proper – such as the boardroom, for example.
The ankle boot: The ankle boot is an important shoe to add to your collection, especially for colder weather. It’s a functional piece because it can be worn in varied ways. For instance, you can wear an ankle boot with a business suit or a pair of jeans and it will complement both looks successfully. A black, leather square-toed boot is an example of a sophisticated shoe that can be matched with almost any pair of trousers.
Have fun in the shoe world guys!
