POTW: Men's Casual Dress Shoes

About this video

Weston discusses a pair of Johnson and Murphy burgundy cap toe shoes that he recommends for their versatile styling potential. He explains why he prefers the darker burgundy-brown tone over traditional reddish burgundy shoes, details the casual elements like the brown sole and brogueing, and provides guidance on pairing them with various outfits including summer suits, chinos, and jeans.

Key takeaways

  • Weston prefers darker burgundy-brown shoe tones over bright reddish-burgundy colors because they’re easier to incorporate into outfits
  • Weston argues that casual dress shoes are an appropriate place for contrasting stitching details, unlike formal dress shoes where such details can be distracting
  • Weston recommends pairing burgundy shoes with blues, greens, browns, and various shades of brown clothing, or wearing them as an alternative to traditional brown dress shoes with casual outfits
