Waterproof good dress shoes? With season being the fall and all.... expecting rain for the next 9 months lol. Anyone recommend dress shoes that is waterproof? Decent looking as well? Tired of all the ones I buy just suck... being in the rain. Work in office environment but walking from my car or skytrain to the office in downtown in the rain can be hectic. |
Just leave your dress shoes at the office Then you can wear whatever the hell you want on the way there |

hush puppies have comfortable water proof dress shoes. |
I've looked into this as well. Only a few in the market that's good esp in van. Blondo 'Valerio' Waterproof Boot (Men) | Nordstrom Cole Haan has them too but they aren't really "water proof" like gortex; they are their Warren Waterproof Chelsea edition shoes. http://www.colehaan.com/warren-water...proof&start=14 for really low budget: Essential Details Waterproof Slip On from Rockport. Yes weird name but they are waterproof. I personally think it's fugly; the other ones are ok. http://www.rockport.com/rockport/ess...rproof&start=1 |
when you commute, just put on a pair of overshoes |
Can't you buy waterproofing sprays or creams that you can apply to a regular pair? I've never done it so..... |
It's not really that effective, it will protect the leather a bit but it will affect the texture and ultimately is not considered to be best practice for "good" shoes. If you have a GOOD pair of shoes and want to protect them, the SWIMS shoe covers are solid options: https://www.swims.com/mens/galoshes/ (However, they are about $125 so you will likely need to be into decent shoes to bother). Most guys seem to suggest that those are viable options but if you live in a climate with poor weather, beater shoes are a better choice. Mark |
^bingo I was at Holts and considered the shoe boots but just looked so gay. If you have a pair of Aldo, u won't buy a shoe boot that is more expensive than your shoes. If you own a pair of $300+ pair of nice shoes, you are going to be parking at a under ground parking and you probably won't be worrying about your shoes in the rain. |
^no matter which shoes you own, you're always going to get caught in the rain in this city at some point, despite your best efforts. |
The best ones ive ever worn were Geox. Great quality and comfy. Geox Technology ? The Official Store For The Shoe That Breathes |

Aquatalia makes fully waterproof dress shoes. Including waterproof suede chelsea boots. |
Thinking about picking up a pair of Pajar boots. Anybody have any experience? Quality, fit? I've got my eyes on these at the moment. LOW TROOPER - BrownsShoes |
^ love it. the zipper is epic attractive for me as it makes it getting in and out much easier than palladin, then again, these are $220 |
Proper rain boots that look decent, then you can feel invincible in the rain. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/10...g?v=1474737135 |
does it go well with dress shoes tho? topic is about dress shoes, not just rain boots |
Depending on your office environment/dress code, they could be a stand in for dress shoes on particularly rainy days. They also come in black and don't stand out as being a rain boot. Though I agree, they are not going to work if you have a more formal dress code and need a dress shoe. cheers |
wrap it in saran wrap |
