fucking hate mens shoes, need some though, i've got size 11 feet so can look like boats, i usually buy trainer shoes as i find mens shoes look like shit, my work shoes are battered and not suitable.
ANy ideas, to go with pin stripe trousers and a black microdot shirt and tie.

i don't like wearing dress-y shoes so on the occasions i need to i have a pair of loafers. look pretty smart but they're still comfortable, so it doesn't feel like your feet want to fall off after half an hour of wearing them

If you have big feet, like I do too, then you have to make sure you get a decent pair of trousers that arent tight around the ankle. As otherwise your feet will look mahooosive!

As for where to get some it really depends how much you want to spend. Try asos.com for somewhere online. Otherwise if you just want a cheap pair try Topman or River Island.

Shiney and pointy are in at the moment.

I can't fault them really, bought those ones about 7 months ago, and they get used everyday for work and for any special occasions/going out etc. They look good, are comfortable as anything and piss easy to drive in too. Can't go wrong

Just spoke to my mate who is the best man, and apparently they all have shiney pointy shoes that look shit, so pressure is off!
Think i'm going to try out a pair of pointy ones rather than safe loafer option.
