Besides how they look the most important consideration for a man or woman when it comes to dress shoes is the comfort. A lot of men are not used to wearing dress shoes and so for them they have to be comfortable. Even though women are more used to wearing dress shoes they still have to be comfortable.

The most comfortable dress shoes for men will depend on how dressy the shoes have to be. Let’s face it, there are not too many occasions where a man has to wear a tuxedo. In this case, we suggest he simply rent his shoes, along with the tuxedo and have it done. For a man who wants to look a little dressy for church on Sunday we suggest a classic oxford or slip on. To assure the man his dress shoes are going to be comfortable we offer a few suggestions. Buy a well known brand name, Florsheim, Nunn Bush, Bostonian are a few we are sure will have a style that he will like. Make sure you are buying a leather shoe, no man made uppers. Most companies will use a rubber sole, even on their dress shoes, this will add to the comfort. One more thought, look for a style that has a padded insole.

As we have said above, finding comfortable dress shoes for women is usually not a problem. Women should shop for shoes with the same basic characteristics as the mens shoes described above. Always buy leather uppers, look for padded insoles and dress shoes with a thin rubber sole. This kind of footwear for women is very easy to find.

Shoe makers have come a long ways in making comfortable dress shoes. Almost any better known brand name will offer both men or women a great selection.
