I recently picked up the pictured two pair of suede AE Strand Dress Sneakers at a thrift site, but I have not decided on how to style them. I typically keep dress shoes and sneakers as separate pieces but I thought these might be the best crossover shoes that I have seen and figured I would give the Frankenshoe shoe style a try. They are quite stunning to look at in-person. I was hoping to get some styling ideas from all the fashionable gentlemen on here :-). Also, should a get a suede belt to match? Or is that trying too hard 🤷‍♂️.

What to say in your intro? Share where you're from, your reason for joining, perhaps your favorite fragrance, watch or a picture of you dressed sharp! It's a small action, but a HUGE step in you getting value from this community becasue you go from being a lurker to an ACTIVE member. In fact men that introduce themselves are 10X more likely to the actions to becoming their best selves. Bonus Point - By introducing yourself you're guaranteed to level-up. Seriously, you'll get at least 5-20 likes/points (oftentimes more) which will move you to level 2 and possibly level 3. And just like that you have access to more of this community!

Sprezzatura. 🇮🇹🇬🇧 My interpretation of Italian ease with English elegance, Ralph Lauren trousers, Salvatore Ferragamo blue suede loafers, a Brooks Brothers linen shirt and cotton cable knit sweater. Classic pieces, slightly undone. Elegance without looking too considered or at least, that’s the idea. 😉

My Sundays are when I usually do my clothing maintenance and care. This includes ironing, checking and cleaning. I put in a show or movie and tend to my shoes and clothes.

We went last night to the Shamrock Club’s Corn Roast. I wore the new sunglasses, my Open Road and an old off red polo. Weather was good for the event though we had a storm with a tornado warning after we got home.
