Classic Moccasins – The Best Alternative Formal Wear


You may have put your best suit on for that office party, spent a lot of time and money on grooming yourself for the evening and done pretty much everything in your powers to make an impression on your colleagues on the evening but all that would count for nothing if you goof up with your choice of formal footwear. Yes, shoes have the power to make or break your look; all the more if you are talking of formal shoes.

This is why it often makes sense for you to experiment with what you wear to formal events. Agreed that those black formal shoes for men or any pair of branded formal shoes for men in general is a much safer option, but more often than not it won’t get you noticed. What else do you expect when 9 out of 10 people at the occasion are wearing the exact same thing?  This is a where a pair of classic moccasins comes in really handy.

Moccasins are not the same as loafers!

The first thought to come to your mind when you talk of moccasins would pretty much be, “Wait! Isn’t that just another term for loafers?” But as it turns out, it’s not!

Loafers and moccasins could be differentiated on the following counts:

  • Loafers are made of leather, suede and other materials while moccasins are almost always manufactured only out of leather.
  • Loafers may have a raised heel while moccasins do not.
  • Loafers do not have laces while moccasins do. However, the use of the lace is usually only for an aesthetic purpose.


While loafers are outright men casual dress shoes, moccasins are more semi-formal in nature and are highly versatile. This is to not to say loafers are no good, they are the go-to option for casual occasions or daily use for most men (and rightly so), but moccasins have greater utility as formal wear.


Moccasins as formal wear

Moccasins act as a great alternative for your men designer shoes and also for black or brown formal shoes for men. Moccasins go well with formal trousers and also with a pair of chinos.  You can wear them to a formal gathering; in a color that complements your outfit and personality to make heads turn your way. You could also wear them to your office on a lousy Monday and add a bit of spunk to what would otherwise be a regular, mundane day at work. 

What is unique about these shoes is that even though they are made of heavy grade leather, they are quite light in weight and hence extremely comfortable. Foot sores and sweaty feet would definitely not bother you! Also, moccasins have a classic feel about them. You certainly emit a different aura when you wear one of those and that only adds a charming quality to your personality. 

If you are looking for a pair of moccasin shoes that have a high aesthetic value, are made of the finest quality leather, and are highly durable, then you could consider products made by Italian manufacturers. Italian shoes for men possess all these qualities and have done so for years. Brands like Joe Shu have successfully carried this legacy forward.

So the next time you buy shoes online for men, try a pair of classic moccasins. And yes, you can thank us later!
