can’t go wrong with Versace penny loafers
a pair of bruce willis' old tennis shoes. the man's a stud.
Really depends on your company / team’s culture. At my company (tech firm), no one cares.
Depends on the industry. If it's a business casual office, then you can't really go wrong with a nice pair of Oxfords. Right blend of formal and casual imo.
As other posters said, it's all about the industry and that office's culture. If it's the corporate office then you want shoes that can work for business casual but can also be dressed up to business formal. Some offices (like mine) have instituted a casual dress code, so most people wear a clean pair of tennis shoes.. You never know. Best bet is to get a decent, conservative pair of brown shoes that can work with business casual, formal, or jeans.

Get a pair of black or brown oxfords. Literally the only shoes you need.
