Do these shoes go with a black suit?

[Herr Kutz]

I was looking for some shoes to go with my new black suit and found some that I like the look of and fit okay, but I'm not sure they go with a black suit because of the brown part on the sole.

Oh yeah, the underside of the shoe (top portion) has no grip whatsoever. There is some sort of sticker that mimics a grip but it's pretty slippery.

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

The looks are fine. The slippery sole is a no go.

 

[Herr Kutz]

Can I glue something to it?

Bad soles are bad. $40 is cheap but, not cheap enough to put up with bad soles.

 

[John Connor]

Yeah, the sole I don't like. Don't know if you can glue anything to it though.

I'd say meh. That sole is high too.

Is this for a funeral? Or can you wear a different colored shoe?

Perhaps Jos.a.Bank has some nice shoes? http://www.josbank.com/shoes

The Royal Formal Oxfords look nice. http://www.josbank.com/royal-formal-oxfords-by-jos-a-bank

I'll check them out when I go there to look at their suits, but I'm very picky about shoes. They can't be too heavy or clunky, and if they aren't slip-on, the shoe lace needs to be very low profile and of high quality.

Do they match your purse?

Says the guy buying $40 shoes. Here's a clue, shoe's that are worth $80, NEVER get sold at 50 percent off.

Of course you could always wear these to the wedding. https://www.amazon.com/eZstep-Women...22&nodeID=7147440011&keywords=fluffy+slippers

No, and don't listen to JC either. You should never buy shiny high polished shoes unless for a black tie event.

Something like this would be better.

[Herr Kutz]

Those are very similar to my G.H. Bass shoes but I don't like the belt buckle on top. Otherwise that's sort of what I'm looking for. I know what you're thinking...why don't I order a new pair of the G.H. Bass shoes? They changed the formula so they just don't quite feel right anymore.

Buy a pair of shoes that will last you a lifetime and be in-style forever - Sure they are gonna cost you $200 on sale from what is normally $300+ but your feet will thank you and everyone will know you are not basement dwelling neckbeard.

http://www.allenedmonds.com/sale/black-friday-sale/sale-shoes/ The Sanford for $199 is a great deal.

I own 6-pairs of AE's and have worn through the soles of a few but the leather is still like butter. It will be the last pair of dress shoes you buy, just take care of them by using cedar shoe trees and a good wax/polish. I

I don't take care of my shoes so I'm going to stick with cheap ones for now.

 

[MrSquished]

I don't like the contrasting stitching to wear with a suit.

 

[MrSquished]

My friends are all telling me to get allen edmonds but i am not ready to drop 300 on shoes yet.

I found this brand on Zappos and bought two pairs in black and tan:

[cbrunny]

I would not wear those with a suit.

If you aren't the groom, the father of the bride, or a groomsman, you can show up naked. No one will be looking at you.

Also, sharpie will take care of the tan part.

I don't think you have a clue how retail works.

Why can't you wear shiny polished shoes unless you're dressing for a black tie event?

 

[Carson Dyle]

To the original question ... No, those shoes wouldn't be appropriate to wear with a suit, mostly because of the contrasting color of the heels, soles and stitching. They're more of a casual shoe. Wear with jeans or khakis and a sport coat.

those super shiny patent leather shoes you get with a tuxedo rental just don't go with a suit.

One day when you are able, invest in some COMFORTABLE dress shoes.

You will be grateful decades later.
