I pulled it off the other day at work actually and drew a lot of attention/negative criticism to myself. lol
I had forgotten my regular black laceups and decided to put on my dark brown pair of RL Driving mocs with a basic navy suit, with no socks.
People were just looking and commenting the whole time.
Was it a no no?

I say that was a "No no."
Brown + Navy is a yes.
But that is only applicable in the dealing with leather. 
But under the circumstances you had to do with it what you could.

Sounds far fetched, doesn't it?

Most people in Montreal go to work in the winter with 2-3 pairs of shoes, im my case 3.
Gym, dress, winter shoes.

Theoretically, I suppose it could be done. In practice, it sounds scary.

For a summer look and a casual event, driving mocs with a linen suit and a sports or camp shirt might look good.

No socks at the office is a no no.

At the airport recently I saw two older fellas in business formal suits, ties, and socks-exposing low vamp rawhide style brown moccasins. Even if this does make moving through the security line slightly smoother, they both looked dreadful.
