7 Types of Shoes to Wear With Shorts | Best Summer Shoes for Men

About this video

McGoff provides a comprehensive guide to selecting appropriate footwear to wear with shorts, ranging from more formal options like loafers to casual choices like sandals. He explains the formality level, appropriate clothing pairings, and styling considerations for each shoe category, emphasizing that men don’t need to own all options but should choose styles that align with their personal preferences.

Key takeaways

• McGoff recommends loafers, moccasins, boat shoes, and espadrilles as more polished options for shorts, while sneakers offer casual versatility and sandals represent the most informal choice
• McGoff argues that loafers are more formal than boat shoes, and that camp moccasins are more versatile across seasons than driving moccasins since they can be worn year-round with different socks
• McGoff suggests men should own only 2-3 shoe styles that match their personal taste rather than trying to have every option, and that mixing formality levels (like pairing sneakers with button-ups) can create intentional styling
