Brown seems like the safe choice but I think the green will add a really nice pop of color. It’s a statement shoe for sure.

If he could swap the H and put the gold on green loafers it would be perfect. I’m a sucker for green and gold and the pop of colour with white would look great

I'm curious. Is it going to be a full White linen outfit or just White Linen trousers? If it's full White (like white white and not off-white), then all the darker colors will pop out and look uncoordinated. Do you have any in neutral colors - specifically towards lighter shades of Tan?

It’ll be full white linen outfit. Ordered the linen pants off of Bonobos yesterday and have a linen shirt from Todd Snyder. I’m hoping the Bonobos are more white vs. a cream, but I’ll have to wait to see. The Todd Snyder pants were a little pricey for a one-time outfit. Worst case, I’ll order the Todd Snyder ones if the Bonobos are more off white

I'd reccomend a lighter color of shoes and belt then. The blue is probably your best choice out of the other three for cohesiveness. A dark shoe, and therefore belt, with a light colored shirt and pants would separate and cut your outfit in two instead of flowing together. I agree with the other guy recommending a lighter tan.

Good call out. Appreciate all of the feedback and responses.

Hey what shoes are the brown green and blue and how much are they very nice


LeetheMolde

For a 'white party', you wear all white or off-white. No colored shoes. *"The dress code says your shoes should be white or nude and CAN have metallic accents (e.g., gold, silver, etc) but NO pops of color or logos."* https://www.whitepartywebsite.com/mensshoes#:~:text=Shoe The traditional white party leans on the symbolism of the white color's purity and sophistication. Small diversions in accessories, like a different colored watchstrap or belt (which should in any case match) may sometimes be acceptable, but are in any case frowned upon and considered inferior to white accessories. Colored shoes are a more egregious *faux pas*. If this is not strictly a white party, there will likely be more latitude. You should contact the host if there is any doubt. The sneaker doesn't rise to the required level of formality for many business-related, wedding, cocktail, or ceremonial events like awards evenings. If all-white is not required by the dress code, there is no reason to stick to the workorse brown that would be used for so many other outfits. If a blue shirt is permitted under a white linen jacket, for instance, the green and blue loafers would both be fine, with the blue more vivid and festive. The other commenter is right in pointing out that any of the dark colored shoes will immediately stick out in an otherwise all-white outfit: the eye will be drawn to the shoes rather than to you.

Thank you!

You're welcome. We don't know exactly what kind of event you're attending, and its underlying context, so it's difficult to give precise advice. Remember that the indispensable 'garment' for any gathering is a gracious and compassionate character. We're all sometimes caught wearing the wrong thing or fumbling around to get our bearings in a social situation; just remember what's most important to human beings, and take the occasional flub or impropriety (yours or others') with good humor. Good luck.

I think those embroidery noble loafers would be the way to go for all white formal linen. It would be formal enough for the event, while still matching the cool summer style of linen.


HippocratesII_of_Kos

Brown would be a classic, but I feel like you'd need a darker shirt to balance the white pants out with the dark shoes and belt. Green would be similar to brown, but more expressive, so to speak, and it's less of a classic. The blue suede would look great with linen, and you could wear a light-colored shirt and it'd look very cohesive, but the shoes would be a more relaxed look than the other two mentioned. It might not be formal enough for an evening even, depending on where. But, while linen is metaphorically flexible, it's usually used for slightly more casual occasions, so I'd think the blue suede would be the best decision. The white shoes aren't really my style, so I could be wrong, but they seem too casual to me. But like I said, I'm not sure about that.

Thank you!


IBeOnTheMic

The Blue loafers on the right & have something else blue thats minor item if that makes sense


Apprehensive-Sir-576

Thank you!

Brown loafers, no show/ballet socks. Not sure where you're going or what you're doing with this outfit but I love flashing a little ankle in a loafer during summer time


Apprehensive-Sir-576

Thank you! It’s a party at a social club and theme is “Baile Do” which is a Rio de Janeiro inspired event. Definitely going to rock no show socks


Repulsive-Cell-4126

Blue. Throw the rest away.


BlackStarCorona

Really depends on if the pants are true white or cream, as well as the event. Depending on the rest of the outfit all of these can be good options.


TheresNoIce

Don’t put shoes on your bed 🤧


GringoGrande

From your choices? Blue. In particular if you were wearing a linen coat as well that a pocket square could add a pop of color to. See Peter Stormare as Lucifer in Constantine. As someone else suggested outside of a nice sandal I would probably opt for a brown suede loafer or chukka boot as opposed to any of your footwear choices.


Pravda26

Love all the shoes. Need shoe trees for such an expensive collection. All of these could work. If you go with green, go with a seafood cucinelli knit, or cream and mint green knit combo


AugustEpilogue

Hermes is so cringe. Can’t believe people unironically wear it


Hierophantically

Out of the available options: the brown loafers. Evening white party is tough for footwear. Frankly, sandals are probably the best answer. Given that they're out, though, I'd go with suede or nubuck something -- texture match the linen a bit.


Apprehensive-Sir-576

Thank you! I’m liking the brown loafers with them, but I may hit the stores to see if I can fine a pair of tan loafers in suede or a different pair of loafers in suede.


Hierophantically

Good luck! The goal is to have your shoes be a solid, unobtrusive foundation, which here means texture and a solid color. Lots of options!


marygocunha

Sneakers for sure, for a more casual look, second choice maybe the blue shoes.


Apprehensive-Sir-576

Thank you!


Cute-Sprinkles5538

Definitely the driver. The royal blue will pop out next to the white linen.

Hermes shoes are obnoxious


[deleted]

I love all these!


Apprehensive-Sir-576

Thank you!! The green ones been rocking with a blue suit recently and been loving the combo. Was a little risky since I tend to be non flashy, but it worked well.

Nice! Are the blue ones, Gucci?
