The 8 Mens Shoe Styles You Need in Your Wardrobe

Choosing shoe types for men

When it comes to dressing for success, you can never go wrong with a good pair of shoes. They can make or break an outfit and are not just for special occasions.

When picking shoe types for men, we often wonder whether it would fit the bill or not. But in reality, money isn’t the main factor. Even costly shoes may make you look dumb. 

Here are eight types of shoes that every man should own.

1. Leather Boots

Leather boots are a popular choice for men, as they can be dressed up or down and offer a unique look. They are also versatile, able to be worn with jeans or formal attire. Many types of leather boots are available, including cowboy, dress, and motorcycle boots. 

If you’re unsure what style of boot you want, consider looking at models inspired by traditional workwear like chukkas and work boots. From smooth to rugged – these versatile styles come in a range of finishes. 

It’s also essential to consider your foot’s arch. Some boots even have built-in supports that help with stability and support. If you have pronation (a tendency to roll your foot inwards), buying a pair of boots with cushioned pads inside the boot may be helpful.

You’ll find some great mens boots at Footshop.

2. Classic White Sneakers

The classic white sneaker has become a staple on men’s feet everywhere. Whether you’re outfitting yourself for a party or hitting the gym, these versatile kicks are sure to keep your feet comfortable all day long.

And who doesn’t love a little bit of nostalgia? Not only do they look great but wearing a pair of classic white sneakers will also help you stand out from the crowd.

Every guy needs a pair of stylish classic white sneakers

Another thing to consider when choosing sneakers is what material they’re made of. If you plan on wearing them outdoors often, ensure the material is water resistant. Choose something more comfortable and breathable for everyday wear, like cotton or silk.

If you decide to wear white sneakers, brush them off every time you get home. Dirt and mud will build up quickly on the surface of the sneaker if you don’t regularly clean them.

Brands like Vans, Adidas and Converse are all great options when it comes to white sneakers for men. Get inspired at Footshop.

3. Loafers

Looking for a versatile, comfortable shoe that can be dressed up or down? Look no further than the classic loafers. Whether dressing for a business meeting or kicking back with friends, loafers will always be a go-to choice. Not to mention that slip on shoes for men are comfortable and easy to wear, and make for great everyday shoes when the weather starts to turn cold.

Mens loafers are a comfortable mens shoe choice

Here are four ways to wear loafers:

1. As a casual shoe choice for weekend brunch or lunch with friends. Throw on some jeans or khakis, and you’re good to go.

2. For a more dressy look, pair them with a shirt and tie for work or an evening out. A nice pair of socks complete the outfit nicely!

3. For a more relaxed vibe, slip on white cotton socks and enjoy your morning coffee or croissant in peace. No need to worry about heel slippage either – loafers provide plenty of stability and grip!

4. Pair them with your favourite jeans or khakis for a Saturday night out with the guys for a casual look. Throw on some black dress socks, and you’re good to go.

A good pair of loafers is a no brainer for the average guys shoe collection. Check out Base London for their excellent range of quality loafers.

Brogues

Brogues are a staple in any man’s wardrobe, whether you’re dressing up for a more formal event or just kicking back and relaxing on the weekends. Whether you’re looking for something classic or a little more unique, a pair of brogues make for the perfect dress shoes for men.

Here are five of our favourite styles to get you started:

4. The Chelsea Boot Brogue

This shoe is always a classic. You can wear them depending on your outfit. If you want to dress them up, pair them with a crisp white shirt and some smart trousers; if you feel more casual, go with loose-fitting jeans and an untucked shirt.

5. The Monk Strap Brogue

If traditionalism is your thing, this style is perfect for you! It’s a little more casual than the Chelsea Boot but still maintains the classic appeal of the brogues. If you want to add more flair to your outfit, pair them with a well-ironed button-up and some lovely trousers.

6. Oxford Brogue

This shoe boasts a closed lacing system concealed in the upper portion of the shoe and a small number of broguing accents on the caps.

The Oxford Brogue is a decidedly more dressy style and requires a little more care to keep them looking neat. If you want to wear them with your suit or even jeans, make sure that you keep the shoes shined and use shoe trees!

7. Sports Shoes

When it comes to sports shoes, you need something compatible and flexible. Whether you’re a professional athlete or just looking for shoes that will make your running more comfortable, there are a variety of sports shoes available that can fit your needs. 

Running shoes are an essential addition to your shoe wardrobe

Choose a style that matches your lifestyle and mood. When shopping for sports shoes, you must consider what you’ll use them for. 

If you plan on wearing them at the gym or out running errands, go with a more rugged shoe. If you’re only going to wear them when you play sports or go out drinking with friends, opt for something more dressy and flashy.

Consider your foot type because when it comes to sports shoes, not all feet are equal. Some feet are more prone to wearing down over time than others. If you have a foot that isn’t as strong as the other, you may want to look at shoes that feature more support in the heel and toe box.

8. The Statement Sneakers

Do you love the feeling of a fresh pair of sneakers on your feet? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, as of  2019, men spent an average of $192 per year on sneakers.

No matter what your style, statement sneakers will help you stand out from the pack. Whether you’re a sneakerhead looking for something new to add to your collection or want a pair of shoes that make a statement, these sneakers are perfect for you.

From classic styles like Converse and Vans to more contemporary options like Kanye West’s Adidas Yeezy and Nike Air Jordans, there’s a shoe for everyone. And if funky prints and bright colours aren’t your things, don’t worry – sleek and subdued options are also available.

Here are some tips on how to wear The Statement Sneakers: 

Use colour blocks to create interest. If your outfit is predominantly black and white, try incorporating some pops of colour by wearing colour-block sneakers. This will add brightness and life to your look without overpowering it.

Jeans and shoes serve the same purpose as strawberries and cream. They belong together. To best style your denim, remember these best practices.

  • Would you like a simple outfit with bulky white sneakers or something more interesting? Forest green leather sneakers or khaki suede sneakers work well with blue jeans.
  • Next is cut. Baggy jeans with sneakers haven’t been an admirable look since Clueless came out in a long time. Try having a high cuff and tapered leg ( it does not have to be painted-on-skinny, but it must look clean).

Casual Sneakers that are highlighted by a sharp blue or grey suit are popular among guys, but there are still some things one must do carefully with this ensemble. The trick is not to go overboard with the sneaker-suit combination. Black, white, navy, and tan are the classic colour options for this preppy style.

Where to find the best shoe types for men?
