I'm looking for a pair of black shoes that go good with some nice, dark jeans or tousers (doesn't have to be with a suit). I like a sharp looking dress shoe that doesn't have a "chunky" sole, yet there are some that I think just don't go with jeans (e.g. cap toe). What kind of shoes (if any) do you have for multi-purpose use such as "dress up" and "dress down"?

Well in that case, yes, I do have a shoe that works well with both denim and trousers. Found them in a store of all places.

Thank you kind sir! You have been most unhelpful. I will certainly check out one of these "stores" you speak of.

I have these http://www.6pm.com/n/p/p/7159687/c/34215.html that I wear occasionally with jeans but usually with a suit for work.

I have a pair of black cap toes that I like alot with jeans. I don't get why you don't get the look with jeans. Too conservative?

Then there is also the suede boots I have from barneys coop. Not really dressy (wouldn't wear with a suit) but definately not "workwear".

Personally I think just about any dress shoe would work with nice jeans (wingtips, wholecuts, captoe, driving loafers, penny loafers, etc.)
