Guys don’t wear cords often enough. You have fall, winter and most of spring to take advantage of these cool pants and they show that you care about how you look -- both in your personal and professional life. They are perfect for almost any occasion and show that you have a little style. Just make sure you’re wearing the best men’s shoes for cords.
If you don’t currently wear cords – add them to your wardrobe. Here are the three best men’s shoes to wear with cords:
1. Men's Shoes for Cords - Oxfords

You wouldn’t want to wear dressy oxford shoes with cords, but a more casual oxford will work beautifully. Oxfords are really versatile and can be worn with just about anything including jeans and khakis. I usually have at least three pair of oxfords in my closet: a black pair, a brown pair and a pair to wear with my suit.
2. Men's Loafers - A Great Shoe Choice for Cords

Men's loafers are a great pick. Assuming you work in an office that doesn't require you to wear a suit, loafers and cords will work most of the time. They are a classic look and are dressy enough to take a client out to dinner, but not so dressy that you make anyone uncomfortable. This should definitely be a look you have in your closet, because it works for almost any situation.
3. Men's Boots and Corduroy Pants

Not every pair of men's boots will work with cords, but a classic pair of suede boots will look really sharp. Suede boots are very cool right now and you can’t walk into any shoe store without tripping over a few pair. Please, by all means stay away from cowboy boots, motorcycle boots or anything that you might wear in a snow storm.
