Here is my arsenal of shoes in my regular rotation:

Top row left to right: Magnanni, Santoni, Santoni
Second row left to right: Sassetti, Ferragamo, Barker Blacks



What else can I add to it? If you have links that would be great and looking at $350 and under :)

I also need to find a good pair of black shoes so recommendations are welcome for those :)

What you have already looks great, but you might do well to add a pair of wingtips or boots in a dark brown.

i think he is covered with the browns. i would go for a dark burgundy and a black "fun shoe" i.e. monk or loafer. and stop using smileys. reserve those for when you are trying to get laid

I'll second the wingtip recommendation.

A #8 cordovan PTB would fill a number of holes.

Some chukkas, one calf and one suede would be useful.

A darker brown suede shoe.

Anything in burgundy. Great color.

I would do a monkstrap (in any color), a derby (in any color), a pair of boots (in any color), something in black and something in a shade of burgundy.

Alden #8 PTB is a great choice. Adds a Burgundy (that turns dark brown in time...) and a blucher.

Definitely a black shoe, a suede shoe, a chukka, a pair of monks work too... And these things can be in the same shoe. Stay away from the browns you already have.

Whatever you do, stay away from brown captoes for a while.

Wingtips, pebblegrain, cordovan, boots, suede, loafers, and my favorite shoe color this year: navy.

Might I recommend a dark green that is almost black? I have wanted to punch Spoo and steal his shoes even though they are not my size since seeing the photos....

That seems more like a 25th shoe, not a 7th.
