What would you expect to pay for a pair of nice men's dress shoes?
My boyfriend has to wear dress shoes to work and he always pays over 100 dollars, he says if you get them cheaper then they are uncomfortable, and can only be worn for a couple hours before your feet start hurting. so i say if you can buys some at 100 and up you will like them better.
Reply:Anywhere from $80 - $200, depending on what exactly you're looking for. More than that is just ego.
Reply:Me- $900-1500


Most people- $50-$120





I love being rich...

I'd say between 100-200 $US is about right for a nice pair of dress shoes. (Johnston %26amp; Murphy)





For over $300 you can get better dress shoes that can be re-soled and last. (Allen Edmonds, Church's English Shoes)

Reply:At least $100. Anything less than that is unacceptable.
Reply:It depends on what you want them for and how long you want them to last. I've paid $180 for very nice pairs of all leather shoes. They hold up well and can always be taken to a repair shop if you destroy the sole or heel. I've also paid as low as $60 for a comfortable cheap pair with plastic soles. They look okay but if you are standing side-by-side with someone with quality shoes it shows.


So what you pay can really be based on the audience/settings you are going into. For the average office wear expect $150 or more. If you are trying to do high-end sales or marketing, then wear high-end clothes/shoes.


As to too much, that is up to you. If you feel shoes are too expensive then don't buy them. Regardless of what you pay, as long as you take care of them any quality shoes will last you a long time so look at them as an investment in your career.
Reply:I would think around $160 is a nice upper end price of dress shoes.





They should also have a good sole %26amp; made of leather so you can expect them to last for 2-3 years at least.
Reply:I ONLY wear Louis Vuitton, Ferragamo's , and Bally.








I usually pay about 500 to 600 for a pair of shoes. I have over 5 pair of LV's and 4 pairs of Ferragamo's.








It's so good looking,
