Lawsuits

Bahahahha but so true. Only wear white shoes if they're Gucci horsebits and you're at your polo club in Palm Beach. And even then don't wear em.
 

White shoes should never be worn, either casually or for business, in my honest British opinion. Black is the only acceptable shoe colour for business. I look down on people who attempt to wear Brown shoes for business events - it is just plain wrong and I have seen interns/juniors sent to the shoe shop to get black ones by senior management.

White tennis shoes go well with shorts and a t-shirt.

If you somehow managed to get white leather dress shoes, you could try to see if you can get away with wearing them on a light gray/ sharkskin suit, but I'd rather see you wearing brown or black shoes with them.

I am in disagreement with the poster who said you can't wear brown shoes. In the US, brown shoes are appropriate with gray suits (lighter than charcoal), which you can get away with here. You can also wear them with khakis depending on your definition of business casual. (In Chicago, everyone wears khakis for business-casual; in New York it seems like everyone wears dark slacks.)

 

Sorry, I just don't get the suede thing. Also, why pink soles?
