Closed Lace Dress Shoes

Closed-laced dress shoes are the more formal of the two types of lace up shoes. This option is recommended with worsted fabric suits. Sometimes, these dress shoes can double as formal shoes. Traditional formal shoes are patent leather, but you’ll find those times when your other black dress shoes will work as well. If you could only have one pair of dress shoes, they should be closed-laced with some brogueing or decoration. The shoes should be black.
