Links to everything in the description boys! Also, pro tip - if you’re not sure if something is worth buying over the cheaper alternative, buy both and try them to see. All these companies have great return policies, so as long as you try them on in your house and wear clean socks you’ll be able to get your money back on either pair. Getting the shoes, feeling it in your hand and on your feet might change your mind on what’s worth it and what’s not!
That edit on the step ladder was absolute gold haha

Oxfords and Derbies are an essential for all men, you cannot go to a proper formal event or ocassion, such as a dinner, a funeral or an evening wedding in loafers! Workwear boots and dress boots are also essential.

I really like your picks Brandon! Top notch suggestions The chunky sneakers could definitely use some variety, instead of plain white Arigatos. Try out the 2002R Protection Pack you just suggested; they're mad comfy and look so good!

Love your videos dude. If one pair only which colour suede loafers would you go with? And which colour Birkenstock Arizona's?
I think this would be perfect if you added a gym/workout shoe
I literally waited for Loro Piana to be mentioned🎉
I’ve ordered a few things from Aurelien. The loafer is a very good quality, I think better than my suit supply. A bit mixed feeling about my merino wool cardigan, as they need super special care. If you want to buy shoes from massimo dutti, I think it’s worth to wait and buy for the next summer (or for late summer) - when discounted 50%, they are very worth the money.

Becket Simonon have some nice and more affordable selections
Hey Brandon, really enjoying your content man. But would it be possible to make a video in the future on how you keep your clothes looking like new, when it comes to washing and drying without ruining them.
Fire video Brandon! Quick q: For thge Steve Madden Hermes dupes, do you think they would be comfortable for someone with wide feet?
you should add peshawari chapal in it 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Hey Brandon! I’m starting a new job as a Lawyer next month. The dresscode is sort of business casual (a business shirt and nice trousers). I find it difficult to make outfits. Could you make a video on business casual styles? All the best!
Might need to practice a few of those European brand pronunciations 😉 some great picks though and I was glad to see Charles Tyrwhitt on the list :)
I'm suprised you recommended suede sneakers for a more elevated look. I think suede brogues with chinos & a polo shirt look way more interesting & classy. Still, great video
Great video! You should really check out Santoni & Hogan shoes

A good Chelsea boot is also great
Excellent video, however I must specify: this is the perfect *summer* shoe collection. We would be remiss if we neglected to mention the Chelsea boot, chukka, and for the more adventurous among us, the desert boot. Superb collection nonetheless.
Honestly, save up to get a few pairs of John Lobb loafers, dress shoes, and boots. They'll last you for your entire life if you rotate them in between wears, and take care of them once in awhile.
Brandon for sued shoes I would definitely check out the Clarks brand... really good for kicks and know for using good products to make their shoes.

what polo are you wearing in the video? looks pretty sick
I would have added some kind of boots. Like a pair of black Chelsea boots
Can you make a video about how to determine the quality of a sneaker? For example, what makes a pair of axel arigato better than a relatively inexpensive leather sneaker such as Reebok club c?
I love sneakers 😊
2:12 man i love your humor haha
Hey Brandon, what colour summer loafers would you suggest to get as a first?
Good video, but I think it’s missing some boots. Especially Chelsea or work. Those are so versatile they look great, can be worn in the cold, and of course, dressed up or down. I know it’s 2024, but we as men can do a lot better than loafers, especially for formal situations. Personally, a big fan of the Thursday low premier. Surprised that you didn’t think highly of it. It’s really good quality structure and leather and of course it’s extremely affordable.
What do you think about lately hyped low profiled shoes like adidas spezial or adidas gazelle indoor?

I'd love to rock suede shoes, but sadly the climate is very unpredictable and a bad rainfall can kinda ruin the suede forever.
Only shoes a man needs: crocs, running shoes, some shoe for formal outfits (idk what I'm talking about) and proper hiking boots. xd
This is from a previous video. But what travel jewelry and accessories case do you use?
