Have you ever seen men dressed in classic men's suits wearing athletic shoes? How did you feel? If you felt something was amiss, you're right. Here's what you need to know to avoid this fashion faux pas.
Athletic shoes do not play well with bespoke suits; in fact, they are polar opposites. This includes all types of athletic shoes:
However, wherever you go, you probably see people wearing running shoes simply because they are comfortable. Unless you are casually dressed, though, you'll find most people feel it demonstrates sloppiness when folks wear inappropriate footwear with their daily outfits.
You can avoid this fashion faux pas by wearing men's casual footwear that looks sharp, is comfortable, and enhances your appearance. Slip-ons, mocassins or monk straps are a fashionable solution.
Your athletic shoes do have a place in your life, but if you want to present a well-dressed image, you'll confine them to the gym or workouts at home.
If you'd like some help matching shoes to your business wardrobe, call the men of Montagio and schedule an obligation free styling session. We'll guide you through the process of choosing footwear and other accessories to make sure you look dapper no matter what the occasion.
