Thanks to Beckett Simonon for sponsoring this video!
Every man needs a quality pair of dress shoes. But how do you tell the signs of a good dress shoe?
If you don't know what you're looking for, chances are you'll just end up judging based on price. And if that’s all you’re looking at, most likely you’ll end up overpaying.
In this video, I talk about the 4 things you should look for in a quality dress shoe, plus I talk about my review of Beckett Simonon, a unique men's shoe company with a different kind of business model.

Great job explaining the differences of Goodyear vs Blake etc. Thanks.
-
The BEST leather for the upper is shell cordovan. Will last for ever, takes a brilliant shine. Yes, Goodyear self construction, full leather lining, leather soles and combination heels. And keep them in FULL wooden shoe trees.
-
Very good video. Thanks for the demo on leathers; that was new info for me. I'll check out the Beckettsimonon link...
-
Interesting concept, thank you for the explanation. IMHO they may benefit from investing in more lasts in oddball sizes. Wouldn't really cost them much since they only make shoes to order anyway. I wear a 15, which makes them a non-starter for me. Again, thank you. Hope they expand their product line in the future.
-
Thanks for the mention Kyle, well done review!
-
Great video sir 👍 have become a big fan of your channel 😊
-
The explanation of the cost was so enlightening! Great episode overall
-
I love my Florsheim Kenmoor wingtip oxford shoes. They never out of style. My father wore the same ones back in the 1960's. The shoes are built like a tank and had them resoled 4 times.
-
Sorry this is a bit much on the commercial type video rather than a true guide.
-
i think its a great general idea of what you look for in a dress shoe. thanks mate
-
I used to be a Johnston & Murphy, Allen Edmonds, and Nettleton guy. Well after discovering Beckett Simonon, I said goodbye to J&M; AE could be next. BS has so much style.
-
The shoes look great. Never tried their dress shoes, but have a pair of german army trainers coming next month
-
Great video. I've been thinking about that brand but this video sold them
-
Great educational video. Smart.
-
Good info. Thanks.
-
So, what do they use for the outsole? I bet they can’t hold a candle to my Alden shell cordovan shoes.
-
Loved the shoes, but sad part they only deliver in USA :(
-
I would keep away from any Blake-stitched shoes. You either choose Goodyear-welted for quality, or hand-welted when you can afford it.
-
Hi! I need this kind of review video for my luxury brand of shoes
-
All my shoes are genuine leather. I'm not willing to compromise on the quality.
