Derek replied to Matt H's discussion Decent set of shoes for a college student"I don't know if they still make Earth Shoes, but that's I've had a pair since high school (my word!

Just make sure that they…"

I, too, am trying to wear nicer shoes."
John Opalenik replied to Matt H's discussion Decent set of shoes for a college student"Clark Walabees in a dark color work great for me. They look good enough that I can wear them to work (teacher) and be plenty well dressed, and they're comfortable enough where you wont be tempted to shift back to sneakers for…"
Dale K replied to Matt H's discussion Decent set of shoes for a college student"For the money, I would have to weigh in with a couple of guys who suggested nice, but comfortable loafers. Loafers work year round. Nice looking ones can be matched up with a pair of slacks and a tie for a dress up occassion."
Michael M. replied to Matt H's discussion Decent set of shoes for a college student"Out of the Clarks lineup, I highly recommend their mid-rise Desert Boot.
