The $5,000 Wardrobe

The Perfect Plain Brown Loafers

In Part 9 of "The $5,000 Wardrobe," we spend $365 on some good-looking loafers.

Dressing up is usually pretty easy: Throw on a suit, lace up your black leather oxford shoes, and away you go. Dressing down, however, is where things get tricky, which is all the more reason you need a pair of plain brown loafers. They look as good with blue jeans as they do with corduroy or flannel trousers, and once you break them in, they'll feel almost as comfortable as your favorite pair of sneakers.
