Shoes can really make or break a guy

Most of the times when we dress up we are more interested in pulling the upper look- making sure the tie matches the shirt or if the pair of jeans match the colour tees. We rarely care about which shoes we put on,if its a suit or formal wear we just know its either has to be the black or the brown one. We don't care whether the detailing of the particular shoe goes with the occasion you are attending or if it works with your look. Here in SA, i have seen a whole lot of fashion insults- have seen men wearing loafers with suits to work or to meetings, have seen oxfords worn with a baggy jeans. This only shows you that people dont know the value of shoes and how to apply them to a certain look.

Its not only about wearing the right shoes with a certain look but also wearing a quality pair. I know shoes are more of an addiction to women but the desire should also be on men but to a lesser extent. Believe me when i say a shoe can either make you or break you. I remember alot of times when i really dress up and my confidence is boosted and my move is smoother than Sinatra and then i just happen to engage with women aaah all the confidence goes all the way down. They look at your shoes first before being moved by your outfit. I really don't know why women are attracted to shoes so much that the first thing when they meet a stylish guy, they look at the shoes. Im beginning to think shoes sort of determine a gentleman. I want to believe shoes tell a woman about the soul of a man-no pun intended. Nothing too shiny or too chunky.There is definately something about the shoes coz i remember at school we used to be inspected if we have polished our shoes and if we are wearing the right type. This was done before even checking if my tie is on or not.

A pair of good shoes can make a good look great. Personally, after i work on the outfit i thoroughly consider which pair to wear coz i understand what a bad pair can do to my good outfit. Iam a man who falls for brands and once i do that, i trust that the brand is always good style for me. Iam a adidas fan and a stacy adams too and wish i could afford the Hugo boss. Invest in a good pairs both formal and casual and you will see how sleek you will always be. I don't like flimsy little loafers. I like a shoe with strength to it like Adidas and Stacy adams even Steve Madden is quite good. Good quality pairs can last you years so its never a bad investment.#ChurchSwag
