Answers like, "I wouldn't change a thing" ring true in Nerve's fascinating man-on-the-street interviews posing the question, "What Do Cute Boys Wear to Get Laid?" article. Other appropriate responses include "I don't know, I’d probably just wear some tight shit," "I don't really plan what I'm going to wear," "The same shit I am wearing now," and my favorite: "What would I wear to get laid? My face. What kind of question is that? I would never put on an outfit specifically to get laid, because I have found that women do not fuck my clothing."

Despite my general advocating that clothing choices are important, I'm filing those charmingly apathetic but completely natural and therefor sexy-ish responses under "allow." Now for the condemns: "I would probably wear loafers, because there’s really no excuse for dudes to wear sneakers when they’re going out. Unless they’re jogging, or they’re going to play some kind of sport." WRONG! (Good) sneakers are one of the hottest footwear options for men. I would estimate that about 70% of the men I've slept with were wearing sneakers on the night(s) in question. Loafers, on the other hand are far trickier business. You run the risk of looking like you are about to offer a lady a Werther's and a Sunday drive, or of looking like a schoolboy, or of looking like a slimy douche. I'm not saying it can't be done or that you shouldn't try, just... be careful out there.

Another condemn: "If I were determined to have a one-night stand, honestly, I'd probably just do jeans and a t-shirt with my new Toms." Woah, woah, wait right the fuck up. Toms are many things: Plentiful, easily destroyed, emblematic of ineffectual consumerist philanthropy, and kinda cute. It's one thing to don them for some summertime shit kicking, but to consciously select them for erotic allure... I'm reminded of a comment I heard somewhere that went something like: "People who wear Toms are bad in bed." The pot's been poisoned, dudes.

But opinions are like assholes, etc etc, so which do you prefer for men's footwear, Blogtown? Loafers, sneakers, or Toms? Alternate suggestions for sexy men's shoes are, as always, welcome in the comments.

Which men's footwear option do you prefer?
