5 Must knows when picking out a perfect blazer
Running shoes
Thereโs nothing better than a sleek pair of athletic shoes. Not only can they function as your gym shoes, but they can be worn with your casual outfits, as well.
Always sticking with a black/white, black/grey/white, or navy/white colour to ensure that your sneakers compliment all your outfits. Bright colours like neon green or a bright red will only draw attention away from your outfit.
When purchasing running shoes always go for shoes with a white sole.

Suede Moccasins
The reason why these shoes are a must-have for every man is because
- They are pretty comfortable and stylish
- You can wear them with anything casual
There are three things to remember about driving moccasins:
- Only wear no-show socks with them.
- Before you wear them for the first time, make sure you Scotchguard them in order to protect the suede from dirt & liquids as much as possible.
- Theyโre going to get dirty, itโs inevitable with suede. So buy them knowing theyโre going to have a shorter shelf life than the rest of your shoes, but trust me, you wonโt care because theyโre so damn comfortable.
Derby dress shoes
Every man needs at least a black and possibly brown pair of dress shoes in his wardrobe. They go well with all outfits outside of a super casual outfit.
Since you should at least own one suit, these are necessary because you canโt get away with wearing any other shoes with your suit. Remember: the goal is to have you looking amazing, no matter the scenario or outfit.

White sneakers
Theyโre clean, classy and look great with a lot of your casual, even up to a little more dressy, outfits. Throw onย a nice fitted blazerย and someย dark wash jeans with them and theyโll look amazing.
Under no circumstance should you wear these withย a suit. Thatโs a trend thatโs been floating around for a few years and I just think youโre not doing a suit justice by dumbing it down with sneakers.
Theyโre utilitarian in that you can wear them in a lot of adverse weather situations as well as in more elevated casual outfits. I prefer brown because boots are usually more geared toward the cooler months and it goes AMAZINGLY well with the dark wash jeansย andย wool trousersย you should already own. But donโt be mistaken, you can also wear these year-round.
Just don’t wear them with a suit, strictly casual.
