Aaron Marino of alpha m. refers to wearing the trend of wearing dress shoes without socks. If you are wearing dress shoes with men’s slacks, you should always wear socks.
The look would be too unfinished, sloppy, and casual without socks. With jeans and chinos, the line is blurred. Aaron has seen it look good, but feet would become raw, smelly, and sweaty. Aaron recommends playing around with fun and stylish socks to set yourself apart. Draw attention to your feet for the right reasons.
