We all know how important good footwear is, be it in the case of men or women. Shoes can, not only, make or break an outfit; but they are also the best way to add individuality in your outfit, while balancing the rest of the look. One such potential way of transforming your outfit and making you stand apart from the crowd without going all-out to make a statement is simple, textured footwear with a hint of classiness. For the trendy men out there who are still apprehensive about how to sport textured footwear on various occasions, this one is for you.

Office appropriate
Men can be quite skeptical about experimenting with their office footwear but now is the right time to break all stereotypes and give your look an edge without pushing the dress-code boundaries too far. You can go for the corporate staples – a crisp white shirt with a pair of black or navy formal trousers and add to it a pair of grey suede textured oxfords. This will not only upgrade your look but also add a dash of smartness to your otherwise regular ensemble. If you are still not confident enough, or if your work-wear rules can’t be bent, then you can always go for classic black formal shoes, but with a little texture on it!

Rock on
Going to a music festival or concert night? Want to give off rockstar vibes without going over the top? Sport a white graphic tee with distressed denims & a black leather jacket. Complete the look with a pair of black textured chunky soled lace-ups for that ultimate “ready to rock & roll” kind of look. You can also go for metallic or studded footwear if you want to take your punk-rock look a notch higher.

Cool & casual
Textured footwear is a great choice for occasions that demand casual clothes but also a bit of an extra effort. Taking your girlfriend out for lunch or a day at the movies call for a cool, but head-turning outfit. That extra bit of effort which is bound to impress your girl (and others too) can be in the form of the shoes on your feet. Go for a denim shirt tucked into a pair of beige chinos or a polo t-shirt with denims trousers, paired with grained/pebbled canvas or twill loafers or boat shoes and you are all good to go. Go for colors like tan, camel or navy to amp up the casual style quotient.

Party perfect
It’s time to ditch those patent leather shoes or shiny sneakers for stylish textured footwear to get the party started. Pair up a V-neck t-shirt layered with a semi-formal blazer and slim-fit denims with your textured snakeskin or suede slip-ons for a comfortable, yet trendy look. These shoes give you immense breathability and comfort. You can also flaunt such shoes with a semi-formal shirt and waistcoat outfit to an office party or your friend’s sangeet.
Textured footwear in with their varying styles, ranging from material mixes to vibrant colors to patterned constructions, are a top pick this season and all men out there need to get their feet into them in order to stand out in the crowd! So, stock up on these trendy pieces & put your best foot forward!
