Lately, I have been wearing a lot of khakis and jeans, in fact, pants-wise, that's all I've been wearing.

I have been wearing sneakers my entire life, but recently realised that it might be nice to get a pair of brown casual/dress shoes, as they look nicer, and might compliment the khakis more than a pair of Chuck Taylor's (Converse All-Stars, old school).

Does anyone have any recommendations about a nice shoe to look into? Or even a company or brand name, and where it can be purchased would be fine..

Generally, I'm wearing button down shirts (striped, pattern, Hawaiin also), and khakis or "faded" jeans, and am looking to get a pair of casual, maybe dress (but more casual), brown shoes that will look "good" with the types of clothing I'm wearing.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I am a little out of sorts in this area. All my life I've been buying and wearing sneakers, and it would be nice to get some guidance about a few shoes, or even brands to pursue. Price range? I'd say $50-$100, but if possible, the lower the price, the better, as long the shoe quality is upheld.

Thanks!
