If you’re a high-powered business broker like many of our clients, your wardrobe can actually generate revenue. It impacts people’s first impressions. It tells them you know how to read a room—and follow its unspoken rules. It conveys both power and grace.

So, how do you make sure you convey the right message and dress appropriately for any occasion?

How often do you look at a man’s shoes? Footwear is normally one of the first things you notice. A striking pair of dress shoes can complete a look—or cause one to unravel.

Shoes can tell you a lot about a person. They speak volumes about wealth, confidence, style, and personality. If a man looks nice in a suit but is wearing beat-up footwear, it shows he doesn’t pay close attention to detail. When a man’s shoes don’t complement his attire—through material, color, and upkeep—it gives off the impression that he doesn’t care.
