I have a DS just like yours except he won't entertain chinos or jeans as they feel funny on his legs but would happily wear a suit if the occasion called for it so I am always looking out for alternatives for him for those occasions when something smarter than joggers is needed but it's not quite a suit event.

Matalan also do shoes/brogues in tan and dark tan.

Wanted to update incase someone else was after some smart but not smart shoes.
After a day of looking and lots of No, definitely not, are you joking etc I got a oh I think I like those.


From Cotton Trader's, never showed from here before so hope they are nice and fit. He's not a label lad so that helped.

I thought lads were meant to be easy.

Thankyou all for your help.

My son has a navy blue suit for his prom, he is wearing plain white vans with it.

I think trainers are fine to wear with a suit- so many people mix formal and informal nowadays and it looks really trendy- my husband wore a formal shirt, braces and bow-tie with denim shorts and Toms when we got married- I wore Toms with my wedding dress

Took my son and his friend to prom last night.

Waistcoats were very popular as were Air Force Ones my son wears black ones but there were so many white Air Force Ones with the suits it looked like a uniform.

I’ve loved reading all the ideas on here. I hope he likes the brown shoes when they arrive, I was going to suggest something like toms, some of the lads around here seem to be sockless with trousers rolled up so thought that might be an option. I will have the joys of Prom next year for a girl who I know will not be in the least bit interested to do the whole dress thing.
I hope he he has a great night.
