Best everyday dress shoes?

I have the hardest time shopping for men%26#039;s shoes!





For my job, I wear dress shoes every day. For my social life, I wear dress shoes most of the time, too.





I absolutely CANNOT FIND a decent pair of dress shoes. In March, I paid almost $150 for a pair of dress shoes at JC Penny%26#039;s... now, they are already wearing out and starting to look... well... not so dressy!





Before this last pair, I had paid almost $200 for a pair from a specialty men%26#039;s store... I think they maybe lasted 6 or 8 months also before the sole started tearing.





I need a nice pair of men%26#039;s dress shoes that I can literally wear everyday... at work... in airports... out at the clubs... walking downtown from place to place.





Any recommendations? I need something that looks fantastic but will last a little longer than my other pairs have.

Best everyday dress shoes?
anything that%26#039;s comfortable to you.





go to a dsw store

Reply:Get some casual shoes, Some good casual shoes are nike. And if u wanna get a little into it were some vanz. anyone else wanna add
Reply:Okay, get ready to spend, spend, SPEND!!! If you are near NYC at all, go into the men%26#039;s shoe stores on Fifth Avenue. I%26#039;m sorry I don%26#039;t remember their names. BUT, they are top notch and should give you great quality. Florence, Italy also is a good source for good men%26#039;s shoes.

Dress shoes for different purposes?

Since I am still in highschool, I only feel the need to have 2 suits. Both are black and I have only 1 pair of black dress shoes. The thing is.. I am in a part time internship that requires me to wear a %26quot;business suit%26quot;. I just wear the one of my black suits w/ a shirt, tie, belt, and those black leather dress shoes. They are not, but they look like these: http://www.zappos.com/images/100/100627/... [www.zappos.com]





Now I would like to know if a shoe like this would be suitable for wearing in a business fashion as well as a non-work fashion (dinners, parties, etc.) because I have just been wearing the same thing when I go out to a fancy restaurant or something. I honestly do not know much about formal style and I%26#039;m not sure if I am doing something wrong here. Since I only have black suits, I don%26#039;t own any brown shoes (should I?), and I don%26#039;t have any dress loafers or slip on shoes (should I?).





What do you suggest?

Dress shoes for different purposes?
Those shoes should be fine for anything you%26#039;re wearing your black suits for. They would also be appropriate for any social setting in which you are wearing colors that should be paired with black.





If you are wearing a brown belt, you should wear brown shoes. If you are wearing a brown sweater, you should be wearing a brown belt and brown shoes. If you are sticking with the black theme, then these can be all-purpose shoes.





I hope they%26#039;re comfy!
Reply:look so you have to were a suit. i would just were some black dress shoes. i mean it wont hurt to were dress shoes one time. if friends will make fun of you dont were dress shoes.
Reply:First of all you defintiely need to mix up your style with more suits. Try pin striped or plain gray, those are nice colors. And I think guys look so awesome when they go out on the town or something and are in slacks and a nice shirt and dress shoes. My husband has a nice pair of black loafer style shoes that go great with his slacks as well as nice jeans and a nice button up shirt when he wants to be more dressy but casual. They don%26#039;t look exactly like the ones in the link below but they are close.

Reply:1) yes you need brown shoes


2) yes you should have other black shoes


You do not need to go crazy yet ur only in high school but as you grow so should the shoes you have.


While ur not committing any world horror you will more than likely in time find you want other shoes for diff events.


Get a square front black shoe and brown shoe for now and you%26#039;ll be fine

Dress shoes..?

I really need to find some cute heels that would look good with a formal dress and be easy to walk in at 7 months pregnant.

Dress shoes..?
I wore heels when I was 8mos along, it was extremely uncomfortable, but I didn%26#039;t want to take them off... You give up so much when prego sometimes you just want to look good lol.... anyways try to find something with a wide heel, no hollow heels. and try to keep them as short as you can.... a wedge would be good, because your weight would not all be on the ball of your foot. Good Luck!

Reply:I undersand wanting heels. But do you HAVE to have them? I would suggest not wearing heels that far along in your pregnacy. It would be awefull to slip and fall.
Reply:A kitten heel would be perfect...They are cute while at the same time being comfortable and steady!

A press release I found on pregnancy and shoes:

Earth Shoes Offer Many Benefits During Pregnancy


Wednesday January 18, 2006 10:50 am ET





Earth Helps Ease Pain %26amp; Discomfort for Expectant Mom%26#039;s Feet





WALTHAM, MA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 18, 2006 -- We have all heard the phrase, %26quot;If the shoe fits, wear it,%26quot; but for many pregnant women, fitting into their shoes is not an option. Pregnancy presents a host of physical changes in a woman%26#039;s feet, including swelling, %26quot;flat feet,%26quot; and general pain and discomfort. Fortunately, wearing a healthy shoe like Earth can address several of these problems. %26quot;We receive e-mails all the time from pregnant women who find great relief from wearing Earth. Not only do their feet feel better, but our Kalso®Negative Heel also helps them carry their new weight more easily.%26quot;





Source: Earth











The unique Negative Heel® is a technology developed by Danish Yoga Master Anne Kalso®. This design positions the heel slightly lower than the toe to promote a more natural posture with the head straight, shoulders rolled back and spine and pelvis aligned, allowing the back to form its natural arch. The Negative Heel differs from a heeled shoe that pitches the body forward and throws the pregnant woman%26#039;s body off balance and strains the back even more.





%26quot;When the body is naturally aligned, the pelvis, which is the strongest part of the body, better supports the extra weight,%26quot; explained Vern Aisner, director of marketing for Earth. %26quot;In fact, after wearing the shoes during pregnancy, many become Earth wearers for life.%26quot;





Edema, which is the medical term for swelling of the feet, occurs when the extra weight of the uterus puts pressure on the blood vessels and causes circulation to slow down and blood to pool in the legs and feet. This, compiled with the usual fluid retention that happens during pregnancy, can result in pain and the inability to wear regular shoes. Because Earth shoes offer an extra wide toe box and several slip-on styles, with adjustability features such as straps and elasticized stretch gores, they are an excellent option for those suffering from this affliction. Earth offers wide widths in their most popular styles and colors.





During the last two trimesters of pregnancy, a woman%26#039;s center of gravity shifts and she can lose her balance more easily. Earth shoes provide a flat and stable base on which to walk, making it a suitable shoe to wear when walking briskly for exercise, too. Even after the baby is born, the shoes provide the perfect foundation for a new mother who is often juggling a baby, a baby bag and a purse.





%26quot;%26#039;Foot fatigue%26#039; and flat feet are very prevalent in pregnant women, so I recommend a comfortable shoe with specific benefits and that also carries the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance like Earth,%26quot; said Carolyn Siegal, Beverly Hills podiatrist and attending physician at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Siegal also recommends getting regular foot massages in conjunction with wearing %26quot;healthy%26quot; shoes during pregnancy.





Celebrity mothers who have embraced the Earth brand include Diane Lane, Jennie Garth, Mariel Hemingway, Keely Shaye Smith, Gwyneth Paltrow and Cheryl Hines.

A lot of stores have maternity shoes listed as %26quot;accessories%26quot; and I would not have thought that!
Reply:ouch. comfort is so much more important at this time. You want to find something that is very stable (don%26#039;t want to fall in your unbalanced state). If you can find some cute heals that are super comfortable (for swollen feet) and stable, go for it. Otherwise, do what the movie stars do, go for pretty ballet slippers.
Reply:You should go to payless, they have a variety of comfortable and inexpensive shoes.

Dress shoes?

I have a wedding to attend in March, and I am going to buy this dress http://15dollarstore.com/p/trixxi-mesh-h... What color/style shoes should I get? and How should I do my hair (shoulder length brown hair). Also I%26#039;m trying to figure out what color of shirt and tie my hubby should wear, I would like it if he could wear the same shirt and tie to my sisters wedding in May, which I am standing up in and wearing aqua. I want something that goes with aqua, but doesn%26#039;t clash, and it can%26#039;t be silver, black, or aqua. Thanks:)

Dress shoes?
for YOUR hair, give it a natural looking curl.


for HIM, give him a powder blue shirt and slightly darker tie....but not aqua (like what you said).
Reply:try some silver strappy shoes and hair up
Reply:I would go with black or silver shoes...





About your hair, you can wear it naturally wavy if the wedding is during the day or up if it is at night to make it look more formal.
Reply:Silver Shoes %26amp; Jewellry Or gold Do you hair half up 7 down and loose curls.. Your hubby could wear a black shirt and gold or silver tie ...





Silver goes well with aqua





Good Luck ..
