Show us Your Shoes

I think those Alden Blutcher are a shade too chunky to fit with a suit (am I right in thinking you want these for office use as well as black tie?). As I said before, look into Loake 1880. The Aldwych shoe is a plain toe with no broguing and looks elegant enough to pair with a variety of formal options.

And for the love of God, do not wear brown shoes with a business suit!

You can wear brown or burgundy shoes with a suit as long as it is the right color suit.

I really hate the look. To my eye, black is always a better colour for footwear whether your suit is navy, dark grey or a lighter grey.

Hey Pac, long time no chat. How are you?

Yes, they were from their recent trunk show MTO event where you could use exclusive and rare shell colors. I couldn't pass up the chance – natty shell is a bit of a unicorn (as they say).

^Congrats!!  I didn't realize they were doing natty shell, I should have made it out to one of the shows!!

I'm doing well, just got one of my unicorns, albeit as seconds.  Whiskey LWB, which are downright common compared to those bad boys but I'll take em

[Guest]

Woah, Pac! Those are absolute gems! Also 'corns if you ask me. I'm hoping to find a pair of Whiskeys myself. How'd you procure?

[tigerpac]

Thank you sir.

So, one of the absolute nicest guys I know from some other forums is the same size as me and managed to get 2 pairs from the recent Shoe Mart batch that came through.  He knew I've been looking over a year for them so he gave me first dibs on the extra pair.  Nice nice guy!

Different strokes for different folks.  I'm the complete opposite.  Unless you are wearing a black suit brown is always better.  Black is a safe bet on most occasions but brown can add the extra punch to an outfit.
