Which brown Shoes

[Lovellum]

The problem with the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd picture you posted is that they are squared off, bicycle toe shoes. In general you would want a more rounded tip, and bicycle toe (shoes with two parallel seams running down the middle) are generally considered no-mans land when it comes to fashion-conscious footwear. If you think the basic shoe posted by IBJanky is a bit dull, perhaps go with a cap toe or some brogueing. Beware though, the more "busy" the shoe gets, the more formal it becomes as well.

Also, if you want a color that goes well with both grey (you did not specify which shade) and navy suits, I would consider a deep chestnut, or perhaps even burgundy.

Hmmm well I never been a big fan of shoes with all thoes holes (probably not the right technical term) but those actually looks kinda nice. How do the they rank on a classic scale?

The look a bit like these:

(just considering what I'm able to try out)

Just say no to bicycle-toe shoes. If they are not already out, they will be by spring.

I agree you should go with the classics, particularly if you don't have a lot of shoes.

Are these Ferragamos available these days?

I used to love the SF Gherardo style but it seems to have disappeared. Those look like a brogue version of the Gherardo.

It would help to know how much you are willing to spend.

Here's another style

^^^I like this one the best.

I was lucky enough to snag them in my size on eBay.

Ok thank you. Now i'm sad that I have a bicycle toe shoe in black that I wear almost everyday

But thatnk you for your input. It was helpful

That one I like very much

Though it looks almost black?
I haven't decided how much yet. But probably not more than $300

If that's the case they're out of your price range.

These Allen Edmonds might be within your budget.

 

[knittieguy]

some other options in the $300 and under price range

That one is nice aswell. The problem is that I have to add shipping, wich as I can see isn't cheap when you want it send to Denmark...and after that, add tax

The other problem is that I have no idea if they will fit
