This question struck my mind particularly as I believe that everyone has its own style and there is not an one-size-fit-all answer. Thus today, I want to start off a new series that introduces different types of dress shoes so you could have a better idea on what you should get. Since Monk Straps are my personal favorite, they will be the ones to kick start this new series.
