Heck, get him a pair of Timberlands on clearance from DSW. Literally every other cold weather work shoe is a better option than that. From both a fashion and professionalism perspective.

Mens fashion ? Isn’t it perfectly fine to wear good crossover hikers in this weather? You need a good sole & it seems

Really you can wear whatever you want. However, crossover hikers always look super dorky.

RdF3

I don’t think crossover hikers are ever appropriate

1/31/23 8:35am

From a fashion perspective? No, it is not ok.

Plenty of weather appropriate shoes to wear to work, hikers are never 1 of them

gww687

1/31/23 8:38am

Where’s your examples? Photos?

Soupie

1/31/23 8:49am

If you can find photos of guys wearing hikers w/professional clothing

1/31/23 8:53am

I asked for answers. If you’re being helpful, you’d give suggestions. If just here

Are you endorsing all those? His are better than many of them. Don’t have an exact photo.

Soupie

1/31/23 9:03am

No. I am providing some options because, again, just about anything is better.

gww687

1/31/23 9:30am

The footwear in that photo look terrible. But go well with the skinny pants and no socks.

valcorger

So we have one vote in favor of Soupie's preferred shoes

1/31/23 9:32am

Get him some Jordan1s

CB: ties are dumb. Also CB: shoe fashion is essential. CB is weird sometimes.

runnincoug

1/31/23 9:15am

Uh, both of those statements are indisputably true.

RdF3

1/31/23 9:21am

Yeah I see them as very consistent. Shoes are crucial. Ties are not

Memmo

1/31/23 9:29am

No wearing those are not perfectly fine. Bad fashion unless going outside for your job.

Baron

1/31/23 9:34am

Yes. Walking around city on & off trains, up & down hills in snow & cold. Inside about half the time.

Soupie

1/31/23 9:42am

Not appropriate. I mean outside like a construction site and they need to have steel toe boots. Not walking around town

Baron

1/31/23 9:43am

Show what you’d wear then. This is probably closer to what he wore.

Soupie

1/31/23 9:45am

If he's walking around the city, that's fine. Would matter more what

RyneK

1/31/23 9:51am

Already described that. Golf slacks (flat front), dark blue button down, tie, pullover sweater. Good heck, can’t imagine

Soupie

1/31/23 9:56am

CB's obsession with shoes has always been weird--to same degree as teen girls

runnincoug

1/31/23 9:58am

This comment is good natured: I bet you wear running shoes to play basketball.

RyneK

1/31/23 10:02am

Here’s what I do wear

RdF3

1/31/23 9:56am

No way are you wearing those in this weather walking all over in the snow on & off trains & buses.

Soupie

1/31/23 10:06am

I mean, those are what I wore everyday when I lived in Logan. The weather isn’t too harsh there though.

RdF3

1/31/23 10:12am

Why not?

kccougar

1/31/23 10:14am

Such a great shoe. Like a sneaker, but for work.

Huh?

gww687

1/31/23 10:42am

Sorry replied to wrong post.

Soupie

1/31/23 10:48am

If I had to wear those everyday I would quit my job.

IGotAverageGifs

1/31/23 10:42am

we get it, you support Soupie, you two against the world

gww687

1/31/23 10:51am

I don't have any cross over hikers either.

IGotAverageGifs

1/31/23 10:55am

Those would be stand out like a sore thumb with a tie. Regardless of what he is doing.

Baron

1/31/23 9:58am

Under a sweater so tie barely shows?

Soupie

1/31/23 10:06am

Yes. That outfit is horrendous. You are supposed to look good if you are wearing a tie not some frumpy old man.

Baron

1/31/23 10:40am

Well I guess he is but he’s my frumpy old man. Pretty sure Dr Rick has worn that in some commercials himself.

Soupie

1/31/23 10:50am

Of this, there is no doubt.

gww687

1/31/23 10:10am

Bad weather provides some wide discretion for footwear.

Thrill

1/31/23 10:07am

Do us all a favor and buy him something like this

TheLoanArranger

1/31/23 10:13am

Doubt he’d wear them. Too high on ankle.

Soupie

1/31/23 10:16am

I immediately thought of this clip, except substitute New Balance sneakers with Crossover hikers.
