Great value shoes under $50
In recent days, with the rapid price increase schedules from the fashion houses, customers started to discuss the value of luxury goods. Not hard to see why luxury brands' action in raising the price of their products to an astronomical level would make people question; after all, many of the items are the same ones we have seen for many years. We know the inflation rate and price history thanks to the marvelous internet. Information is more accessible than ever. Unless we pretend to be mindless sheep, it is unavoidable to have questions. Moreover, the intended scarcity and discriminating inclusivity are rather distasteful.
For more than the reasons I mentioned, the report shows the number of Gen Z who buy super fake replicas is increasing, and the number is shocking. Nonetheless, not everyone is into replicas, and many more options exist. For example, many affordable products inspired by designer goods or trends are readily available on Amazon. That leads to what I want to show you in this post. Recently, the companies like Nortiv 8, Bruno Marc, and Dream Pairs offered me to try out their great value shoes. After some consideration, I accepted their offer and picked these shoes that fit various occasions. I wanted to see a variety of shoes to better examine their quality and craftsmanship. Most of the shoes I am showing here are less than $50, and you can either order them from their websites or find them on Amazon with a few clicks!
The first pair of shoes is NORTIV 8 ankle-high hiking boots. The boots reminded me of some I had seen from Solomons, but the price was less than half. Upon taking a closer look, these budget shoes' craftsmanship is on par with shoe companies like Sketcher. These hiking boots have a waterproof coating, soft padded collar, protective toe cap, shock-absorbent EVA midsole, etc.; you can expect them to perform like most common hiking boots. The shoe design is modern and trendy; you can easily match them with your Gorpcore utilitarian pieces in your wardrobe.
The next pair I picked was NORTIV 8 Military Boots. Having too many black boots, I decided to go with the gray color. The options are also there if you like the traditional black or sand colors. The trend of combat boots is one of those staples in men's fashion. Items like these could be styled with trendy outfits or used as everyday work boots. This pair of boots features a water-resistant upper, cushioned foam insole, non-slip rubber outsole, shock-absorbent EVA midsole; and interestingly, it also has a zip-up feature with YKK zipper to get you in and out of the boots quickly!
When it comes to dress shoes, I have too many pair of pricey leather dress shoes sitting in the closet and looking tired and uninspiring because I simply don't wear them enough. Considering the money I spent on those shoes, only if I knew I could get affordable, good-looking dress shoes for limited events and occasions without breaking the bank. Moreover, too often, I heard groomsmen mentioning how expensive it is to be at a wedding. The expenses to put together the outfit are often jaw-dropping. Celebrating your friends or family's special day is great, but it is not economical to purchase those pricey outfits if you don't get to wear them often. The dress shoes from Bruno Marc are on point with the trend, and they are worth your consideration if you only need them for some special occasions.
The first pair I wanted to try was the Bruno Marc Oxford shoes. These are made with faux leather, so the price is mind-blowingly accessible! These dressy derby shoes look like high-end leather shoes with cut-out detailing on the side panels. The classic plain-toe design and the wooden heel are timeless and versatile, and the outsole also features carved detailing that I wouldn't see at this price point! Lastly, the leather lining will provide extra comfort when you are standing for long hours at a wedding.
The second pair of dress shoes I wanted to show you is Dream Pairs' Prince Formal Oxford. Similar to the previous pair, these have a paneling design for the upper, stacked wooden heel for support, leather lining, and cushioned insole. These vegan leather shoes are sleek and straightforward, and they will be an easy fit for most guys!
The last style of shoes I wanted to share with you is the Mesh Sneakers by Bruno Marc. They sent me two colors, light blue and dark brown. I am very excited to try them because the knit fabric on these sneakers feels so soft and comfortable. The shoe upper is breathable and is the perfect pair of summer shoes! The design is quite thoughtful. They have a pull tab behind the heel, making it easier to put them on. The heel is also padded to provide extra comfort and prevent chaffing. The memory foam insole will help reduce fatigue when walking long distances.
Overall, I am pleased with what I saw. These shoes made a great first impression, and I am eager to try them outside after filming my review. I love the experience of shopping on Amazon, and you can easily order and try these shoes if you are unsure. These could be great for any guy who loves finding deals and buying a great value product. Not just on Father's Day, these are so affordable that you can get them for the men in your life all year long without breaking the bank!
