Hi, I am buying some clothes before SA and been wondering what is the streets take on wide foot oxfords, which seem less formal than classic black oxfords. As far as I know, my office does not require to wear suit or any formal attire, analysts usually wear pants+shirt combo.
Would it be inappropriate to buy less formal shoes like the ones below?
Every opinion is appreciated and I am happy to hear your shoes recommendations!

I don't want to be rude, and no offense, but these are horrendous. If the dress code is casual, then I guess it doesn't really matter, but my brother in Christ what are those
Those look like non-slip shoes you’d wear in a kitchen (and to any confused readers, they’re also not Oxfords, which feature closed lacing).
If you need wide oxfords, Allen Edmonds has up to EEE widths. Get some park aves and be done with it.
Agreed. Allen Edmonds actually has a decent amount of sizing options. They might be a little formal for your summer internship but they're worth the investment in my opinion and will last forever if you take care of them.
Ah refreshing to see a fellow girth god. However, my brother in Christ, please do not wear whatever the fuck those are
Not even my dad would wear those and he’s pushing 60
just get allen edmond, my feet's wide asf(triple E) and they fit comfortably
Must be a troll post.
No way someone is thinking of buying those monstrosities.....
I have an MBB event in a couple weeks and never wore an actual suit in my life. These don't look bad to me, what should one wear then?

Black or Brown cap toe oxfords
Have the same issue, and I wear Ecco shoes. Feel great and last a long time.
