    I'm in my sixties. I have worn many different styles of footwear. When I was very young in the 1960s I wore shoes with a pointed toe. Shoes were uncomfortable to wear in those days. I can remember having blisters. Then in the 1970s I wore platform shoes. In the 1980s when I visited the USA , I bought a pair of white boat shoes which have always been popular. Today I have different styles , ones which are a dress shoe to wear with good trousers and casual ones to wear with denims. From Carl.

    It's great to see you collaborating with Antonio, I'm subbed to his channel as well. I just got my most unusual pair of shoes from eBay last month, a pair of Allen Edmonds kiltie loafers with tassel and longwing brouging in a medium brown. I wear them with chinos and an OCBD with rolled up sleeves, although I also wore them with gray houndstooth dress slacks, a RL dress shirt and a blue partially lined sport coat when I took my wife to dinner for Mothers Day. I got compliments on the outfit and the shoes.

    Great video. I think the oxblood monk shoes are very dapper, as are the Italian loafers. Both are must haves in the wardrobe of a gentleman.

    I love the cherry monk strap but since I wear braces all the time match the belt is no problem. However, if I was going to wear a belt I would never wear them with a black belt. A gentleman will always match his shoes and belt.

    I agree that you don't have to be from Texas or places like that to enjoy cowboy boots. I'm a yinzer and while I don't wear them much now, I used to wear cowboy boots all the time. Cowboy boots are, in my opinion, one of the best items to wear on your feet. You can wear them with jeans, and they look casual, or you can take it up a notch and they still look good. You can wear them with a suit and look good. When I was younger, I hate two pair. One pair was for everyday use. Those were the more casual pair. The other boots were more for dressing up.

    Have come across a pair of nice german hiking boots in cherry red with no sings of wear at a local second-hand shop. That pair cost me 30$. The upper, the lining and the insole made of leather. Looks great with light blue jeans. Buying things by chance is my favorite (and the cheapest) way of expanding the wardrobe.

    *blink* Cowboy boots? Ok then. I would *never* but I'm slowly accepting they're just something that is culturally embedded in America and some people do love them. I'm a little surprised to hear you change your tone and be so dismissive of white sneakers when earlier this year you spoke quite positively of them in your videos. But that's part of why style is fun, our taste tends to evolve. For me, I'm still very fond of white sneakers. Loved the suggestions on this list. I actually do have a shoe in a fun color, I have a dark blue loafer from a company mentioned in this video, Acemarks, it's a fun piece to wear occasionally. Cheers to your style.

    • @Gent.Z
      @Gent.Z  22 дня назад +1

      I definitely still think white sneakers look good on most men. But when my last pair wore out, I decided not to replace them (for now.) Personal style does change indeed, and I might bring them back for the summer.

  • @thechairman74
    @thechairman74 22 дня назад

    I think one type of shoe that you really don't want to spend good money is the driving loafer or similar vented loafer. I do see top sellers like Carmina selling them, but I think any shoe that doesn't have a solid stitched or welted sole isn't worth going expensive for. I, especially, wear out the outside corners of the heels and these shoes don't look like they can be resoled or repaired and while they're cheaper than your Oxford's or Derbys they can still run over $100.

    Why are UK content providers (excepting Gent) so down on cowboy boots? I figured that they were at least as good as Chelsea or lace up Loakes with broguing. The response was something like cowboy boots are part of a costume. If you want to wear a costume, go ahead. I got the impression that they ranked below suede chukkas. Seems a tad insular.

    • @Gent.Z
      @Gent.Z  22 дня назад +1

      They are just very unusual in the UK so would be seen as a little costume-ish. Clothing is all about context. But, now I’ve been in the US for a while, I am liking cowboy boots more and more

    • @Highland_Paddy
      @Highland_Paddy 20 дней назад +1

      I guess more guys would get more use out of the "dress" sneakers or even those suede derbys because they THINK they can pass for formal as well as casual, but most of the time they're not going to any extremely formal occasions, anyway, and their wardrobes are likely more Office Casual than Office Traditional now?

    • @Highland_Paddy
      @Highland_Paddy 20 дней назад

      I don't wear loafers. I would likely prefer the perforated ones if I was going to invest in some. I have one pair of cheap ones that cut into the back of my leg above the heel and find boat shoes much more comfortable, etc.

    • @Highland_Paddy
      @Highland_Paddy 20 дней назад

      I disagree: I think more colorful shoes go with a jazzier outfit just fine. But then it's all likely too bold to be considered Office Casual [or appropriate] anymore. I would enjoy a pair like those two-tone with the yellow, but I agree that making it Oxford instead of Derby confuses everything and this problem exists with more subtle shoes that maybe a plain color but have wingtip or other broguing, etc.

    • @Highland_Paddy
      @Highland_Paddy 20 дней назад

      I don't know if Oxford always costs more, so most guys might blanche at the idea of spending extra for shoes that they can't wear "formally", but then how often are they dressed in business suit for wedding now these days, either? And that usually looks too stuffy, anyway. Save the grey suit for NOT happy occasion in SPRINGtime when most weddies occur.

    • @Highland_Paddy
      @Highland_Paddy 20 дней назад

      I still don't really like cowboy boots for daily walking wear. I just got a pair of those same ones rather than go overboard with more expensive custom pair that I know I wouldn't wear much, but if I was actually riding horses out in the brush, I would want thicker leather. Also, I think a packer boot style might suit overall better, but I also think riding with lace-ups is not the end of the world if the slack is brought in tight and not all left to chance like typically done with sneakers, etc.
