New retail job: need style help

Thread Starter 
So I just took a retail job with a very casual dress code of a collared shirt (polo or dress, can be untucked), no shorts and sneakers are allowed.

I typically will help people find what they need, work the cash register, occasional stocking and general cleaning.

I would like to slightly up my own dress code but not look totally out of place.

I am a big guy that gets sweaty during physical activity and needs comfortable sneakers or shoes to stand for the entire day.

1) Wear the dress shirts, with button down collars, and tuck them in. Get custom-made ones if off-the-rack shirts don't fit you very well. These can be had online for not too high a cost.
2) Chinos are a good choice for pants.
3) Find some good quality dress shoes that are comfortable on your feet. This will require going and trying them on. You'll probably want to get bluchers as they are the more casual dress shoe.
