Men’s casual shoes FAQs
What are smart casual shoes?
- Smart casual shoes are a versatile type of footwear that strikes a balance between formal and everyday footwear. These shoes are typically made using high-quality materials like suede or leather, and are often designed with a simple, elegant silhouette with few embellishments. Smart casual shoes can also be of a range of designs, including low-topped lace-up desert boots, sneakers and casual Chelsea boot styles. The key to good smart casual shoes is comfort and versatility, as this makes the shoes desirable to wear every day, while being able to blend with a range of outfits, polishing casual wear or making semi-formal wear more relaxed.
Are leather sneakers smart casual?
- Leather sneakers are a classic option for men’s casual shoes and smart casual outfits alike. This is because leather is a high-quality material and gives off a classic, yet relaxed look, and can be easily paired with a range of casual or semi-formal outfits. The best smart casual leather sneakers are those with a relatively sleek profile, single-coloured and simple in design. These shoes can be worn in a relaxed office setting as easily as on the weekend. Best of all, a high quality pair of leather sneakers is comfortable, meaning they can be worn daily and in a wide range of settings.
What is the difference between casual shoes and sneakers?
- Sneakers are a highly popular type of casual shoe, although the category of men’s casual shoes covers a broad range of footwear designs and styles. Casual sneakers can be made from a variety of materials, including canvas, nylon and for more smart styles, leather. Sneakers often incorporate sporty footwear elements, including cushioned insoles and athletic design styles. Other casual shoe designs include lace-up leather boots and everyday Chelsea boot designs. These types of shoes are most often made from leather with hardy rubber soles, feature high-ankled construction and can be worn with a wide array of outfits.
How do you wear casual sneakers with jeans?
- Casual sneakers are a classic option to pair with jeans, whether you’re going for a smart casual style, or you’re keeping relaxed and comfortable for the weekend. When picking out a pair of men’s jeans or moleskins to wear with sneakers, consider slim or straight leg designs. Consider pairing light or white-coloured sneakers with classic blue jeans or darker-coloured chinos to create a contrast in tones. For darker-coloured casual shoes like brown leather or suede sneakers, it’s best to wear lighter, neutral tones like beige or light-green chinos to avoid colour clashes. Lastly, sneakers can be worn with the cuffs of jeans rolled up or sitting naturally.
