Casual / dress shoes that imitate work boots are gay.

I really don't care much for shoes. I wear them when I have to.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

... casual/dress shoes with the white welts and soles are really, really ugly. Like these? Those are work boots. From the photo it appears the owner isn't afraid of physical work. The "dress" shoes described aren't for me. Most of those guys won't bother wearing socks too. Might as well make them open toe so they can show off their painted nails. Those don't look too worked in to me. Look darn, near new. I didn't own dress shoes until I was 25. When we dressed up when I was younger, we wore our nicer soon-to-be work boot Red Wings (Pecos, I think) or nice cowboy boots. I've owned the shoes the OP mentions and ABSOLUTELY loved them. Comfortable like tennis shoes but you can wear them with a suit. With that said, my wife decided to sell all of our clothes a couple of years ago, and I haven't replaced the shoes. I have some ostrich belly cowboy boots I've been wearing in place of dress shoes since and like them just fine with a a suit and if needed, tie, both of which are increasingly rare for me despite owning two barely worn suits. If I were wearing suits more like I had to when I was young in the business world, I would 100% wear the shoes mentioned by the OP. But, don't take my advice for it in that I have NO fashion sense. I mostly wear hiking boots, cargo shorts, what-ever long-sleeve shirt is cheap at tractor supply plus a cowboy hat these days. I basically dress how I wanted to, but my mom wouldn't let me, when I was five years old. I even wear this get-up to church and business meetings these days.

I have one pair of PF flyers high tops, I've worn them maybe 5 times, I wear boots and mainly a 35 yr old pair of ostrich skin ropers that have been resold 4 times.

Red Wings with white soles are ok in my book - Been wearing Red Wings of some kind for years. I didn’t know that white soles had become stylish. For a long time I was a finish carpenter and enjoyed the non-marking soles for practical reasons Doesn’t surprise me. A few years ago, Carhart jackets and overalls were popular with the Jigg rappers. You are a true renaissance man.

The girls used to paint my toenails once in a while. I liked orange glitter. I probably don't have to tell Skeen what I would receive as trade....

I wouldn't wear those. My feet don't need that kind of attention, nor do I. I wouldn't look good in skinny jeans, so that's a double "no way!".

Just bought a pair like the op posted about yesterday and fitted for a new suit. New position requires I stash the thorogoods under the desk most days.

Since when do guys give a crap what shoes other folks wear?
I wear whatever I want without regard to what anyone else thinks.

"Leather boots are still in style for manmade footwear." Football's still the roughest thing on campus and white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all.

I wear whatever I want without regard to what anyone else thinks. Me too but I thank God I didn't grow up during the era of the "modern male."
