Shoes : I believe a great pair of shoes are an incredible asset to anyone out their PUing. I have read and heard many times that girls definitely check out what kind of shoes guys are wearing - that means - trainers, running shoes and sneakers are a no-no when you are dressed up to go out! It might be from the fact that generally speaking, girls love shoes and have many different shoes for different occasions - this could be tapping into their 'sole' (for the thick - read as 'soul') :) They don't have to be expensive shoes - there are Payless Shoe stores everywhere. It is your preference whether they are shiny or not - shiny shoes require more care (and you should shine them up before you go out - a little time can go a long way in making you look good.) Shiny shoes shows the girls take care of your shoes - even if you only shine them up on the weekends! Suede and new-buck are ok as well, just as long as they look good with what you are wearing. Black is usually a safe bet, but brown and dark brown can also be added.
