Classic shoes for the suit are the elegant black Oxford, the somewhat more casual Derby and the Brogue, which can be recognized by its typical lace pattern. All three are high-quality leather shoes that you should care for regularly. If the shoes are not worn, keep them in the cupboard with shoe tensioners in shape. Boat shoes and penny loafers are tempting in summer but should be left to our neighbors south of the Alps – at least in the area of business clothing.
