Call me trash but that’s a classy shoe

What's wrong with the world is grown men caring too much about insignificant stuff that doesn't affect them at all.

You obviously never had to sit down with some C-suite executives to negotiate a contract. Making a good first impression is sort of important in these situations and if you dress like a juvenile you will treated like one.

This has been happening for a long time and I've never understood it.

I think it looks stupid, but I'm in my 40's now, so what do I know?

Same men wear skinny jeans too. I’d respect them more if they wore crocs with suites.

Except that’s all in your head in fairy tale world. If you’re the beta in the situation they will see right through you no matter what. If Michael Jordan shows up to a c-suite negotiable with a suit and Jordan’s you think that changes a single damn thing?

I don’t like the casual shoes with a suit but there’s plenty of styles I don’t love. I’m not giving a damn if someone else wants to try and be trendy though.

Grown men worrying about the type of shoes other grown men are wearing with a suit
That’s not what this post is even about. It’s about the observation that tennis shoes with a suit looks lazy, immature, and tasteless.

If it has to do with comfort, most of the shoe companies make the same dress shoe, but with tennis shoe-like soles. I have a few from Johnston Murphy and they are amazing. I only have the casual dress shoes and have not yet bit on the dress shoes. Not ready to wear with a suit just yet.

If you are wearing tennis shoes because of comfort, go this route.

I will never wear another suit again. Uncomfortable and pointless. A tie is even more pointless.

If they have a foot injury could just be a temporary thing. Who cares? It’s not any more lame than wearing cowboy boots with a suit.

Just stop... your dress shoes are not as comfortable as a pair of Nike AIR running shoes. Please.

I literally said the same thing yesterday. Clowns. Don’t forget they also wear skinny slim fit style pants only. So douchy

I’d wear sneakers with a suit. I think suits are ridiculous.
