One piece shoes - yay or nay?

[SuitedDx]



Most whole cuts look great when they are un-worn. once they are creased they look a lot different.

I personally like wholecuts and think that they work if fit properly. Below is a pic of my C&J Weymouths with moderate amount of wear. I think the quality of the uppers make a significant difference.

Wholecuts are not for everyone but it is a nice change of pace... a museum wholecut would be excellent!

True, I have some black C&J tetbury and only close up you can see the creasing so leather quality does come into it, and I think because the leather is not that shiny helps it a little. I can't even think how bad my bottom of the line Loake's would look as a wholecut!

Are there any wholecut shoes suitable for pairing with smart casual jeans?

Elastic or strapped shoes go well with jeans:

Laced wholecuts are most appropriate with suits
