There’s one thing that a lot of people I know have a hard time deciding. In fact, I’m sure you’ve encountered this problem before as well.

What color of dress shoe should you buy? Black or Brown?

Even though the question itself is simple, the answer can be very complicated. There are a lot of factors you should be considering before you buy a pair of dress shoes.

For example, when you wear them how formal are the occasions you will be attending? If you go to a lot of black tie events, then there’s only one option for you: black.

Brown shoes will never be as formal, and the lighter they are they less formal they will be.

On the other hand, you will never be able to buy a pair of black dress shoes that look casual. Their strength can also be their weakness.

There’s also so much more to consider, such as your existing wardrobe, how much the shoes will take to maintain, and even what style of shoe you prefer.
