Basic Bastard shoes questions
White Sneakers
Are plain black sneakers an acceptable alternative? I feel like white stands out more than I like, and my white shoes always seem to immediately look dirty all over.
Are slip-ons fine?
Example: Vans Classic Slip-On Perforated Leather Shoe
Brown Boots
I’ve never used boots so I’m lost as to what to look for. Plus I’m worried about spending $200+ for something I don’t personally think I can pull off, so I’d like something on the cheaper end. I’ll normally wear these dark jeans and flannel/sweatshirt/polo. Chukkas or Chelsea boots catch my eye, but would Oxford/derby shoes also work? I attached some pics of boots/business casual shoes I found very reasonably priced ($40-70) from Bruno Marc and Nordstrom, any general advice or recommendations?
