Shoes are one of the most important accessories for men. They complete a man’s outfit, making it look stylish and sophisticated. Oxfords from the Olympus_Shoes shop are close-laced dress shoes that go well with formal attire. You can also wear them with jeans or casual trousers. You can find these shoes in different colours. Oxfords Shoes are an essential part of any outfit. Whether you’re going to work, happy hour, the gym, or a wedding, a good pair of shoes can help make your look perfect. In order to make sure you always have the right shoes for any occasion, it’s important to know the different types of mens shoes that are available. The Oxford shoe is the quintessential dress shoe. It’s a closed-laced shoe that has the shoelace eyelet tabs sewn under the vamp (the upper part of the shoe that covers your toes and instep). Many oxfords also feature wingtips, which are decorative perforations on the top of the shoe. You can find Oxford shoes in a variety of styles, but their lacing style mainly classifies them. Cap-toe Oxfords have a piece of leather stitched over the toe box to create a cap, which makes them more formal than other oxfords. They go well with formal attire, such as a black suit or tuxedo. For a more casual look, you can wear brown cap-toe oxfords with a navy blazer and chinos. Derby’s The Derby is less formal than an Oxford and more casual than brogues. They’re a great option for business casual attire and pair well with jeans, corduroy trousers or chinos. They also look great with a suit jacket and a tee shirt or polo shirt. The open lacing system of derby shoes from Olympus_Shoes shop gives them flexibility and adjustability to fit a variety of foot sizes and shapes. They’re often considered more comfortable than closed-lace shoes such as oxfords because they allow the uppers to open up wider or tighten closer around the feet, which can alleviate some pressure on the top of the foot. There are many variations of derbies, including wingtip derbies and Norwegian derbies. Wingtip derbies feature a pointed-toe cap with extensions that run along the sides of the shoe and up to the heel cap. The extensions are called ‘wings’, and they give the shoes a look similar to that of a wingtip brogue. Similarly, Norwegian derbies have an additional piece of leather on the toe cap that is known as an apron. Brogues Brogues are a style of shoe with distinctive decorative perforations or “punching” on the leather uppers. The punched holes are arranged in different patterns, and there are four main styles of brogues: full (also known as wingtip) brogues, semi-brogues, quarter brogues, and longwing brogues. The full or wingtip brogue has a toe cap with extension wings that run along both sides of the shoe and unite at the heel’s centre seam. The half brogue has less decoration, and the quarter brogue has none. The longwing brogue is similar to the wingtip but with longer ‘wings’ that extend all the way to the end of the shoe’s sole. Loafers One of the most versatile shoe types around, loafers are a slip-on style that leaves your ankle exposed and not tightly wrapped like a high heel. They range from casual to formal, depending on the materials used and whether or not they have a moccasin construction (like a penny loafer). Whether you prefer a sleek leather tassel loafer from Gucci or a more simple suede version from Alegria, you can dress your pair up or down with the rest of your look. Wear them with a pair of chinos and a crisp button-up shirt for a smart casual outfit, or take it down a notch with selvedge denim jeans and a Mac coat for sixties-inspired styling. You can even make them a part of your formal attire by pairing them with a suit and tie. To really show off your sartorial awareness, you can even go for a woven rope loafer such as the espadrille from Alegria, complete with a woven design and rubber outsole. Then, you can cinch the whole look together with a belt and pocket square. Slip-Ons Generally falling into the casual category, slip-on shoes from Olympus_Shoes shop have many different styles and can vary from dressy casual, like loafers, to more relaxed casual, such as a pair of slip on moccasins. Often worn for daily wear or even hiking, they are great shoes to slip into after a long day on your feet. The best slip-on shoes offer both style and comfort. Look for padded collars, generous toe boxes, and grippy outsoles that reduce stress on feet and ankles. They should also be lightweight, sized with men’s proportions and footfalls in mind, and easy to get on and off.
