Shoes with Jeans

[warrior1]

I like to wear blazers with jeans but i noticed in another site that a person asked if he could wear dress shoes with jeans. This was in yahoo answers and almost all of them said no because it was way too formal and that it was too polished for jeans.

So if you wear a blazer with jeans, do you always have to wear casual shoes? Because it seems that a lot of people say that most dress shoes are too formal.

Hmm when i wear jeans and a blazers its all about the purple DCs skate shoes... but thats more of a younger person thing it seems

either those or black doc martens

Pfft...screw them. You can wear dress shoes with jeans and a blazer. Pick up a GQ or a Men's Vogue.

Secondly, don't listen to what other people say you can't do with your clothing style. That just makes you a fashion robot. As long as you look good and feel good, you're set.

you have to have a varity of shoes... if you are talkinga bout a SPORTSBLAZER.... not the damn church suit blazer your mom bought for you 3 years ago and now you think it's "cool" to wear it out.. you will look like a damn fool.

take the sportsjacket, you can throw some nice fitting jeans with it and some DRESS shoes..something like some nice kenneth coles.

however that requires too much thinking for my liking. If I am going to dress with Casual SHOES... and i have a sports JACKET..w hy not just throw on some SLACKS and make my day that much easier? you hate slacks that much?

It does not look that brown though. It's more like tannish and yes its more of a casual blazer. Can you ever wear those dress shoes with it even if those dress shoes look polished?

hey guys. Someone told me that loafers are pretty good because it has a casual look. However, is there such a thing called loafers that are dress shoes. I see a loafer i like but they list it as a dress shoe.

oops let me summarize it again in a better way. I may be too vague.


I wrote a thread about how i want to wear my blazer, its a brown/tannish blazer so it looks like a casual blazer. I like to wear it with dark blue jeans. However, i got a pair of Kenneth coles shoes but people told me that the shoe doesn't work b/c its too dressy and b/c it is shiny. I need a casual shoes and people recommend me to get a brown loafer or mocs.

My question is i see this loafer i like. However, the shoe is listed as a Dress shoe. I see a couple of loafers while looking online and most of them have the loafers as casual comfort shoes whereas the one i was looking at has the loafer as a dress shoe.

Are loafers no matter what they are listed as fine to wear with jeans and a blazer? Again, my blazer is a brownish/tannish one so I wear it with jeans for a casual looking wear. It's just the shoes that gives me a headache.

Thanks.

Define what you mean by dress shoes.

A pair of nice, well made loafers?

That would be fine but I define 'dress shoes' as being lace ups only and I would not wear lace ups with jeans and a blazer.

I'd definitely go with loafers instead.
