Crocs
There is no amount of solace that legitimizes wearing punched-through neon froth. Notwithstanding when nobody's looking.
Try Instead: Espadrilles
Mulo Suede Espadrilles, available at Mr Porter, priced £115.
Men’s Ugg Boots
Uggs are surely Australia’s retaliation for homing 160,000+ British criminals. Mankind has never needed an all-terrain slipper, yet still they infest high streets; it could be an urban legend but they say that in London, you’re never more than six feet away from an Ugg.
Fortunately, Nike’s design department invented the sneakerboot: a less offensive but still foot-friendly way to battle winter. Sacrifice your Uggs on the pyre in thanks.
Try Instead: Sneakerboots
Nike Max 90 Sneakerboot, available at Size?, priced £115.
Winklepickers
Try Instead: Round-Toed Shoes
IRRON2 Classic Leather Derby Shoes, available at Ted Baker, priced £130.
Undone Biker Boots
Curse the "brother" and his capacity to sully the generally wearable. It's a style law that, six months after David Beckham leads something, it's old fashioned obligingness of a clique of men who just upgrade their closet in light of his appearances in the Daily Mail's sidebar of disgrace (larger than usual beanie, we scarcely knew ye).
While you sit tight for them to proceed onward, stick to exemplary Chelsea boots.
Try Instead: Chelsea Boots

Imaginative one: Is there a light over my head?
Imaginative two: [Raising his head from the line before him] You've had a thought?
Innovative one: OK – prepare yourself. Gloves… for your feet!
Innovative two: You mean shoes?
Innovative one: No. Since these – sit tight for it – cover every toe! Separately! Like a glove!
Innovative two: Wouldn't that be unimaginably unreasonable? Also, more tastefully confused than taking the Elephant Man to a lobby of insane mirrors?
Imaginative one: Probably. Be that as it may, individuals still wear Crocs.
Imaginative two: Pub?
[Fade to dark on two turning office chairs]
How about we simply stick to coaches, OK?
