i always wear dress shoes to everyone else's wedding because it's their day. this was ours so we wore what we wanted to.
but to each his own.


That's probably the best view on the matter.

Wore my black/red XIV's to prom with all black tux n a red tie, better off usin ur own shoes than payin to rent some imo. I wear hats with dress shirts sometimes too, mostly wear all black or all white af1's if its semi-formal. If i jus wanna look good i throw on a black thermal with my black/red rings. Subtle but nice haha

The only shoe I remember people wearing to the prom for example, were the XI's.  I think I remember someone saying they got married with XI's on as well as their groomsmen.

 Never. Formal wear should be kept distinct from what you wear on an everyday basis.
