I just got light gray cotton blazer for summer traveling --- what are the best kind of shoes to wear with a more casual look?

I was thinking mabye something like this (suede chukkas):




Any other ideas? Are jeans and a blazer kind of dated for someone in their mid twenties?

Should I spring for something a little more formal like AE Neumoks?

Bump .... any ideas for the casual look?

I'm going to Vegas soon and have a rockin' sport jacket I just got tailored --- I'm just not sure if I should pair with a more rugged shoe like a Chukka or penny loafer, or go for something more oxford-lookin. Anyone have any experience with this?

Probably looking at something brown or burgundy/ oxblood.

In Vegas you're probably looking to keep it casual. Jeans and blazer is always a strong look, as long as everything fits well. So for instance, do not wear baggy jeans. Dark blue jeans and those chukkas with a white/blue/pink shirt will work very well. Below are some further options to inspire you
