You can pull off boots with a suit as long as they are shiny.  It's the dullness of most boots that people object to.

I don't wear sweaters, but yes, I wear a suit a lot (regular tie - bow ties are far too "out there" to be conservative - although Raj from The Apprentice" seems to pull it off) even at social gatherings and non-work occasions.

However, when I am home it is pretty much either jeans and some kind of button-down striped shirt, or khakis and an oxford.   I have never owned "cargo #####" but I like the idea of all of the pockets for my cell phone, mp3 player, pda, etc.

This is why dockers mobile ##### were such a great invention. I wish the still made them. I could keep my phone down inside the leg pocket and all was right with the world.

Quote from: "arkabee"


my ability to "clean up nicely" is highly underdeveloped.
i have been told on many occassions that black boots, no matter how polished, are not "dress shoes" and should not be worn with a suit.



Here in Texas boots [cowboy] are de rigueur with a suit.
