Are you coprocephalic?
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
What kinda shoes do you guys wear?

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Depends on the situation.
Most commonly, with jeans and polo... it's brown leather sneakers/tennis shoes... or if I'm a little more casual I'll wear Berghaus 'approach' shoes (lightweight hiking shoes that resemble trainers) - I do love my old Berghaus Cuesta Belugas - so comfortable.
If I'm dressed more formal (button down etc..) - Black Oxford brogue type cap shoes, or brown zip-up boots.
In the summer with shorts - canvas deck shoes, or maybe tennis shoes.

Do you guys think Nike Air Max is appropriate for a guy in his 40s or is that more of a younger man's shoe?
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Depends on the rest of the ensemble. But it sure can be.

If it's just something purely casual, like running some errands on a Saturday, I'll wear Adidas Stan Smith's. Pretty comfortable and not expensive. Look good with either blue or black jeans.
However, if I'm meeting someone for coffee or a drink, I'll usually wear a pair of my Colorado boots. They are quite comfortable, fit well and look nice with either jeans or Chinos. They are also what I mostly wear to work, since I'm constantly on my feet.

Depends on if you want the athletic, fit look or the classy gentleman look. I can rock both so I have sneakers and also nice dress shoes that I wear to social gatherings and etc,
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
A pair of Aasics if I'm running. McRae USMC hot weather boots or L.A. Police Gear over-the-ankle (midsized) hikers if I'm rucking or hiking. A $200 pair of coyote brown Danner's when I was in uniform everyday---what an awesome brand. Wolverine wellington work boots or Tommy Hilfiger flats if I'm looking to go casual.
If you want to wear exactly what every chav Brit fagood is wearing these days, then go for it.
