From elegant to statement: The 9 best tuxedo shoes for men

The best tuxedo shoes for men

Finding the right look for any dress code can be a daunting task, let alone finding the right shoes that go along with it. Thankfully, formal and black-tie events tend to call for the same attire: a tuxedo. While this solves part of the outfit, finding the proper footwear is still challenging. The right tuxedo shoes to complete your outfit aren’t just about color or material but quality and comfort. No matter what event you’re attending, uncomfortable tuxedo shoes can make or break the moment. From pinching to easily scuffed shoes, many problems can come from picking out the wrong pair of shoes. Thankfully, there are plenty of styles that are both sophisticated and comfortable.

It was vital to consider comfort, durability, and style to choose the best tuxedo shoes for your dressier events. While plenty of options are available, these nine offer a mix of quality and practicality that can accompany you to every black-tie event. These options have proven through customer reviews and craftsmanship to deliver the best look, no matter your style.

Men’s spring style tips: The camp collar is the look of the spring

A classic shirt for impeccable spring style

Frank And Oak Cam Collar floral

Spring is a time when men will start to adapt their wardrobes from the cold weather of the winter to the warm styles of the summer. Different shirts become staples as the seasons go, and some stand the test of time. The other day, I watched Thunderball for the 20th time (c'mon, when is it not a good time to watch James Bond???) and noticed our beloved spy wearing a striking blue short-sleeved button-up with a wide collar. That got my brain going, and I started looking into that type of shirt, called the camp collar (alternatively called the camp shirt, cabana shirt, or cabin shirt).

Of course, while Bond will always be my favorite example, I started seeing the camp collars everywhere once they were in my head. Tony Soprano wore them throughout The Sopranos, Sheriff Jim Hopper wore them in Stranger Things, and countless other examples popped up in my head as I thought about them. As I start considering men's spring fashion of 2025, I can't think of a better addition.

Alex Crane welcomes spring with new colors for the best-seller

Their best-selling bay sweater is now available in springtime colors

Building the right transition wardrobe is all about versatility. Finding ways to make lighter layers work for you by layering up. When you master layering, spring and fall will be more fun and more comfortable, and you can experiment with combining colors, textures, and fabrics. While layering up for the unpredictable rain, winds, and second winters that rudely horn in on the beginning of baseball season, a good sweater is vital for that goal. The Alex Crane Bay Sweater is one of their best sellers every year, and there is a handful of reasons why. The 100% organic cotton is light enough to serve as a layering piece and warm enough to keep you guarded against the unpredictable weather changes.
Understated elegance for spring style

Why use organic cotton? Because it is grown without fertilizers or pesticides and uses 70% less water than conventional cotton. Alex Crane grows their organic cotton in northern India, in the state of Punjab. Cotton is naturally soft, durable, and breathable. Only 1% of global cotton production is organic, so AC looks to help increase that percentage. These Bay Sweaters are made in Romania, in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains, meaning they can source the cotton straight from the sources all over Europe. Now that you have chosen the best cotton sweater for this season, you can style it with a henley or a button-down underneath or a great textured overshirt or jacket over the top of it. The bone, pine, and king colorways are the perfect way to stand out for the current season.
