Just to add a slightly different perspective -- I think the Ferragamos are a reasonable choice. Â I'm probably in the 90th percentile here when it comes to adhering to the "rules," but I can't bring myself to spend a lot of money on a shoe that can only be worn with formalwear. Â I have a pair of black Grenson wholecuts that look very similar to those Ferragamos. Â I'll wear them with my tux as long as they're highly polished. Â I'll look better than 98% of the men because my tux and shirt are properly tailored and I'm not wearing any trendy accessories such as one of those trendy euro-ties. Â Besides, I can't remember the last time I saw a guy in either pumps or patent laceups, but then the young professional demographic I tend to see the most is not necessarily known for its sartorial propriety. Now a couple months ago, there were a bunch of Edward Green opera pumps on ebay for pretty cheap. Â Should you happen across one of those deals, go for it. Â I think I put my top bid at something ridiculously low like $65 or something since I can't really picture myself wearing opera pumps, anyway. danI was thinking these might be good. Â A little high in price, but at what price point would this be a good deal? Â Any idea how these shoes fit?
