Choosing shoes for men isn't nearly the life changing experience it is for women. But generally, men do still care about what goes on their feet. Rather than fuss over how high the heel is and if the color complements his eyes, he's more concerned with comfort, how much it costs, and how well they'll withstand what he plans on putting them through.

1) Comfort. Men want a shoe that will ease his pain during long days of work and play. Not only should be inside of the shoe be yielding, but the outside should comfort to his feet enough that he has room to breathe. Guys complain about getting dressed up for weddings because they dread putting on those stiff, uncomfortable black dress shoes every man has to wear. Look for shoes made of flexible materials that will give the wiggle room you need.

2) The cost. My boyfriend buys shoes based on the price: he picks the price he's willing to pay, and then eliminates the choices from there. Not the best tactic, I know. But, he's not the only one that practices this while shopping. He hardly strays from the styles and shades he knows, and that limits his options drastically. Shoes are overpriced - we can all agree on that. But generally speaking, you're paying for the longevity of the shoes themselves, and that's a price worth paying. Who constantly wants to go through that fruitless shoe shopping experience?
