a good shoe

My mum always told my twin brother, look for a good pair of shoes; girls  love a good pair of shoes on a man. I don't know how she comes up with these stuff. However, when push comes to shove, i 100% concur with her.A good shoe goes a long way.
 And because the world recognizes that a minority of men actually enjoy shopping, here are a few basic pairs i put together that can revitalize your wardrobe; simple and easy.
1 Dress shoes.

These pair will save your situation anytime you need to attend a formal function. Add these babies to a tux and you are good to go. This pair of shoe will require a  darker shade of color for your socks, preferably to match the color of your pants; check out Ali Kiba below.

2. Boat Shoes

Invented by Paul A Sperry in 1935, boat shoes have evolved over the years and just recently became one of the most sought after fashion statements. These pair are not only comfortable and classy, but also come in a female version so the two of you can have a matching pair!

3.Sneakers.

Everyone loves a pair of comfy sneakers! Why? Because even Larry Madowo can wear sneakers to the studio. And also because they can be paired with absolutely anything; rolled up jeans, khaki, shorts etc etc. I don't know about the 'Nikes' and ' Jordans' but Kenneth Cole up here sure knows what they are doing.

4. Boots

These kind are a bit tricky but all of you male species should own a pair. Boots are young and hip but also classy when done right. Please do not pair them with buggy pants, because that was done in a century that existed a while ago. Instead, go for a pair of shorts, fitting jeans or khaki. Take a look at these two down here

5. The sandals

Now, with our equitorial weather, you are bound to want a little breathing space. Please do a pair of sandals with your Sunday shorts or khaki trousers, This gives you a cute laid down DGAF look.

6. Converse Shoes are timeless. Having been here for as long as i can remember. From Tommy Hilfiger to all-stars, these shoes are unisex and can add the relaxed mood to any look. Pair them up with jeans or shorts and you are ready for a Saturday afternoon out.

So far so good! Now i know you'll be asking where in Nairobi to locate these shoes. Try out the following places, suggested by upnairobi.com

• world business centre CBD
• Jamia Mall
• Ngara Stalls
• The Converse stall Toi Market
• Mr Price CBD

Its always a pleasure.
