Men’s Wedding Shoes for Every Season
on Nov 25, 2024
Whether you are the groom, groomsman or the guest, choosing the correct pair of gent’s wedding shoes is important for completing your outfit! However, there’s a lot of variety in men’s wedding shoes, so selecting the perfect pair can be a proper task. On top of that, depending on the weather, you’d need to choose the most comfortable wedding shoes for men.
Read on as we explore the best seasonal wedding shoes for your big day!
Seasonal Selection
The Indian wedding season usually occurs in two parts in one calendar year: summer and winter. Both seasons pose unique challenges, especially when it comes to the outfit.
Indian wedding outfits tend to be made from silk jacquard, which is a heavy fabric. However, modern grooms are choosing comfort over aesthetics and khadi silk or cotton silk outfits aren’t uncommon today. The shoes, therefore, need to match the season as well. So, here’s the wedding shoe guide for men by season:
Sandals for summer
The sweltering Indian heat doesn’t leave much room for heavy embroidery and pure silk outfits. Likewise, for your feet, you need to choose a shoe that will keep you cool and comfortable. Whether you’re a guest or the groom, choose sandals for summer weddings.
For the best breathable men’s wedding shoes for hot weather, opt for Kolhapuri-style sandals or foldover sandals in beige or tan. A neutral colour will match most outfits and add the perfect classic Indian touch.
Juttis for winter
As the weather cools, the layers arrive. This is the wedding season where grooms and guests can experiment with jackets, sherwanis and more. And the best shoe to highlight Indian designs and fabrics? It’s the classic that will never go out of style—juttis!
Juttis are made from sturdy materials and come in various colours. From neutrals to maroon, juttis allow you to take more fashion risks.
Optional: Formal dress shoes
Many grooms today are donning a suit for their receptions. If you plan to do the same, Titas Footwear also has an extensive range of suave formal shoes. A brown or black leather formal shoe can elevate any outfit! This style is also a great option for groomsmen and guests.
Selecting the correct men’s wedding shoes is more than just a fashion statement. It’s about finding the right balance between comfort and style. This guide for the best men’s wedding shoes for every season will enhance the overall outfit!

A Groom’s Guide to Comfortable Wedding Shoes
on Nov 18, 2024
Firstly, let us congratulate you on your upcoming wedding! We are sure you’re under a lot of stress planning this wedding, so at Titas, we’re here to help complete your look with the best gents' wedding shoes.
Use this groom’s guide to wedding shoes for comfort and style. Learn how to choose the right wedding shoes to look the best on your big day. We’ll also share how to break them in so you can be comfortable all night without stressing about blisters.
Things To Consider
Here are some things to consider when you shop for gents’ wedding shoes:
Rituals
India is a land of diversity and this is reflected in marriage rituals and customs as well. Some rituals require a groom to be barefoot while some don’t. If you don’t have to remove your shoes, choose a jutti. It’s a classic and it will never go out of style. If you have to remove your shoes often, choose a chappal or a sandal.
Weather/Season
A summer wedding, especially outdoors, will have you sweating. It’s better to opt for open-toed shoes to keep cool. Meanwhile, a winter wedding will have you shivering, so go for a jutti (and add socks for extra comfort).
Outfit Colour
Lastly, your outfit colour determines the shoe. Most grooms prefer pastel shades for their sherwanis today, so colours like light tan, beige and cream will pair well.
How To Break In New Shoes
Make sure you shop for your men’s wedding shoes well in advance! This gives you time to break them in.
However, rather than “breaking”, we suggest you “wear in” your shoes. The insoles need time to soften and mould around your feet so that they become comfy on your wedding day.
This won’t happen overnight, however. First, you need to buy well-fitting shoes. Ensure there’s breathing room when you first try them. If you feel pressure in the toe box, the shoes are too small. Second, choose good, high-quality shoes that will soften over time and maintain their strength.
In conclusion, there’s no special trick for comfortable wedding shoes for men. You have to give it time. The key is to wear them often. So, wear your shoes around the house or when you head out for errands.
