So Fall is fast approaching and I know like most fellas you're wondering what is in, what's out and what you need to add to your wardrobe. Look no further, I'm here to help. Let's look at the top 5 shoes to add to your shoedrobe for Fall 2010.
1. Work Boot
The work boot is one of the top shoes for fall 2010. This utilitarian boot is no longer relegated to snow and other bad weather wear but can be worn under jeans or with jeans tucked in. For a casual look, throw a pair of chinos on over the boots with a white shirt, un-tucked of course.

2. Patent Loafer
Michael Jackson may be gone but his penchant for patent loafers is now on trend, whatever you do though, do NOT wear with white socks. Some things are better left with the originator. Patent loafers are great for your suiting and a mod slim tie or you can pair them with jeans and an argyle sweater. These will serve you well this fall, so invest in a good pair.

3. Wingtip Oxford
The wingtip has undergone a make-over of sorts. It's no longer just a staunch leather oxford but it can now come in many different colors and patterns, even a round toe. Calvin Klein's Anya Oxford has a contrasting lug sole and top stitching and finishes off with quite the intricate wingtip pattern. This is a great casual shoe and with proper weather protectant and maintenance will serve you well through this fall and many others.

4. Desert Boot
The desert boot has been a standard in mens footwear for many years and now it's back at the forefront again. With this shoe, it's best to go with the originators of the shoe and that is Clark's. Color or pattern are completely up to you and what you're personal style is but just like the suede wingtips above, proper care and maintenance are a must. Desert Boots can actually be worn now in late summer and carry you right into the fall.

5. High Top Sneaker
Last but certainly not least, the high top sneaker. Long gone are the days of simple black or white high top sneakers being the end all be all of mens athletic footwear. Now you can buy high top sneakers that are brightly colored, highly embellished, made from textiles from other countries and the list goes on. The pair above are from Converse and they are the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Jimi Hendrix Hi Loop Lace. A high top this decorative can take you from white tee and jeans, to white tee, jeans and a blazer and then to vest, tie, white shirt, jeans.
