Completely up to you. I wear something similar.

In the summer I usually wear suede chukkas. In the winter I go with Alden boots or a decent pair of dress shoes, usually wing tip.

If you are going out you also have the same problem I do which is people stepping on your nice shoes. So I get a pair that can take more of a beating then my normally finely polished dress shoes.

I like AE's new web gem for this:

A heartier pair of Aldens works too:

What kind of look exactly are you going for?

Great advice ... Thanks for the links i really like the the links... nice shoes. So what are the best jeans these days? i thought True Religion were still good?

Main reason i made this post is i always get complements on my shirts and pants but the shoes people always question lol
