re: Best shoes to wear with a slim fit suit?

Do you mean a purposefully douchey slim fit suit like Banana Republic or Kenneth Cole? Or a suit that fits?

This is crucial.

Depending on how formal the occasions are where you plan to use this suit, I'd suggest a captoe or wingtip Oxford for a fit with just about anything. Don't get any square toed shoe, and I wouldn't suggest a bicycle toe. Something along these lines:

So many good options....

Yeah, I don't know this guy, but I'm assuming he just purchased a suit that's labeled "modern" "trim" or "slim" fit. I'm not referring to something that looks like a woman's suit sold by Express or something in the mall.

If you're buying an off the rack suit labeled "regular" or "traditional" fit, you're either a larger individual or your suit looks like you have on bootcut pants and a flare of fabric under your arms and on your sides. That's not the way to do it.

FIFY

since you already won't be taken seriously by anyone else, wear either some chuck's, vans, or those big square toe stacy adams joints.

Generally good advice, though if it is a serious business setting I'd go captoe or plain oxford over a wingtip. I like wingtips for most things, including relatively low-formality suit wearing, but generally they're considered less formal.
