Whilst a lot of guys understand that women can tell a lot about us by the type of shoes we wear and that we should be wearing nice shoes. But what exactly are nice shoes?

The summer favourite. The tan brogue is crisp and dapper and definitely shows attention to detail with its defining feature being an elaborately decorated pattern on the toe. Match with a pair of fitted light blue jeans a light-coloured blazer and a white, salmon or sky blue shirt and a loud pocket square to be the dandiest date she will have this summer.

Yet another British gentleman’s classic. The Derby is of the sale ilk as the oxford however it has a subtler rounded toe which makes it more favourable for casual wear. Perfect for jeans or trousers and a good replacement for those who don’t like the lavish pattern on the brogue. A great choice for the subtle dresser.

The Penny Loafer & Similar Variants
