If you need shoes, go with a black slip-on that you can shine up. I spent years buying $400 bruno maglis only to learn that you can get the same, if not better, use out of a pair of $100 shoes. Cheaper if you want. Just make sure they don't hurt your feet and you can shine them up. In my years of wearing expensive shoes, even today, women have never complimented them (majority don't know how to spot expensive men's shoes). Good luck.
Agreed
Smitty, One doesn't need expensive shoes but stylish
shoes that stand out, I get lots of compliments on my Robert Wayne stylish slip ons that I bought on Sale for $ 69 compared to some other expensive shoes that look very business like. So I guess style is more Important than price....
My 2 Cents on
Suits:
A lot has been said about suits and is right, what can enhance a suit is
accessories Key with suits is they shouldn't look formal or business like
and some spunk can be added to the out fit with these accessories
1. Pocket Square: An Absolute must , I have worn the same suit no body notices, worn with a stylish pocket square I got 10 compliments in a day, women coming and touching the pocket square. You really do not have to spend a fortune on them either $8 from Tiebar.com.

make sure your pocket sqaure picks some some vibrant colour off your shirt, really makes the whole suit stand out.
2. TiesSome body said it Skinny tie is a must, Knit ties get noticed a lot too

3.Tie-Bar also can stop people's eyes to focus on you.
4.Cuff-Links : I have tried to rock them but haven't seen any added advantage, there ought to be something I am missing on cufflinks.... advice appreciated.
5. V-Neck T shirts: White T with some minimally vibrant pattern on it under that black suit or a Black V neck looks good as well.
With all these accessories so much mix and match can be done to enhance the whole appearance

Roosh , Great that you are gearing up in a suit, I have a Gray suit from Zara bought under $200 and gets lots of looks. I would recommend a gray one too if that is the only suit you will carry on you. Although a black suit is a must for any Wardrobe.
My question on
Black suits for experienced players how do you make it stand out or look different from Bouncers/Managers working some of the night spots ?
