Many things make the brogues unique. Chief of all is the recognizable pattern that runs along the edges of the design. They come with a row of holes and perforations that goes along with the shape of the shoe to create a piece of footwear that fits both smart and casual situations.
Brogues come in two distinctly different styles – the Derby Brogues and the Oxford with enclosed lacing. Brogues can also be categorized by the type of perforations they have, and this is where we have the full brogues (wingtip), half brogue and the quarter brogue.
Full Brogue
Also known as the Wingtip Brogue, this style is the most iconic, and it features a pointed toe cap with wing-like extensions that run round each side of the shoe.
Half Brogue
Also known as semi-brogue, this type of brogue comes with a toe cap detailing and serrations at the center of the cap. They are much more formal than full brogues.
Quarter Brogue
Quarter Brogues are known for their straight toe cap detailing without any detailing in the middle of the toe cap. Quarter brogues are also fashionable for work use.
Here are some awesome ways to wear your brogues stylishly.

How to Wear Brogues?
Due to the roots of brogues, it’s best always to look smart when pairing outfits with brogues. They are not suited for tracksuits so keep them away. Chinos and denim are a great fit. To get that intelligent look, you can wear a matching color with your belt – black with black and brown with brown. Thinking of visiting the bar with friends? You can pair your tailored shorts with brogues as long as you can keep the stocks short.
How to Wear Wingtips
Wingtips are a classic for men especially with the detailing across the shoe, and this explains why so many guys prefer wingtips and why they have learned how to pair it with an outfit. Back in the days, the wingtip was well suited for a grey suit especially when paired with brown wingtips. An essential quality of wingtips is their design which means they can liven up any outfit without being too flashy.
