  A well made pair of leather dress shoes will eventually mold themselves to your feet. It’s a different feeling to a sneaker, not fabric and foam rubber obv, but they can be super comfy. I’ve even got a pair of Frye boots I’ve had for like 20 years that feel tight when you first pull them on but then they’re just like a second skin, you forget they’re even there

    People have told me this about dress and other kinds of shoes. But it’s not true for me so far. I’ve only found a few types of shoes that I can walk comfortably in period, and even just sitting, the dress shoes I’ve worn feel very narrow for me and have a hard and uncomfortable sole.

  Bad dress shoes feel awful. When I used to wear them at a dresser job, I loved my Bostonians.

  I wear dress shoes with thick black athletic socks. They feel 1000x better. Who really looks closely at your socks anyway.

    Reminds me of another thing I hate about dressing up. I once was chided heartily for wearing the “wrong” color of socks to a wedding. Why would anyone else give a shit that my socks were white instead of black? Apparently they do, and harshly judge me for it.

      OK, white socks with a dark coloured suit would look rather silly.

        My point exactly^

        The fact that anyone would think let alone say this is the best argument I have for dressing up being a stupid obligation

  Really depends. They’ve dropped off in quality and there are better shoes, but for pure comfort, Cole Haan uses the same cushioned inserts as Jordans in some of their dress shoes.

    They’re owned by Nike

    Ha ha, my residual /r/MaleFashionAdvice instincts kicked in on this one.

      That’s where I got my start! Those heady days of yore. I miss having money.
