Jeans are one of the most worn pieces of clothing around the world, regardless of gender or age. At the same time, jeans are one of the most versatile pieces a man can wear. Appropriate for a variety of occasions and ranging from business casual to casual dress codes, jeans always seem like a good option to wear.
As they fit in many styles, they can also be paired and worn with many other pieces. One of the examples would be using shoes alongside jeans to fall into one of the categories of formality. Based on what shoe wear you select, you may achieve all kinds of looks from casual to smart casual.
Let’s have a look at the styles that can include your favourite pair of jeans to and how to combine them with proper shoes to elevate the look to perfection.
Boots with jeans
Boots are a great choice to wear with jeans in colder months. There are many styles available for you to choose from, depending on the style you want to achieve. Following smart casual dress code, you may want to opt for a nice pair of sleek Chelsea boots in the most traditional black or brown colour.
Other options include chukka boots for casual days or dress boots to add a strong statement to any pair of jeans. Our tip: try burgundy or other contrasted coloured dress boots, cuff your jeans up a bit and let your shoes speak about your brilliant fashion sense for you.

Dress shoes and jeans
Dress shoes are an ideal choice to balance out the rough appearance of jeans. For semi-formal events, opt for derby shoes to add some touch of elegance to your outfit. To formal events (that still allow jeans), reach for your oxfords and add a blazer to keep up to date with the style. To appear in your best game, go for black or brown double-monks that will be a statement piece of your elaborate outfit.
On the other hand, keep your shoes simple, because the more details they feature, the more casual they appear.

Sneakers with jeans
In the past few years, the fashion changed so much that running sneakers have found their way into our daily outfits. Of course, you may want to follow this athleisure style, but unless you want to look basic, try putting some more effort to your look. What about a nice pair of white leather sneakers to go with your jeans? Such a timeless piece to wear and at the same time, such a clean canvas to let you wear any bold tops. In any case, you can also wear it with a white shirt and look so good to a variety of semi-formal or business casual events.
