    Loafers with a suit?

    Tough/ most durable dress pants for business casual wear - brand or cloth

    The dress code in my office department is dress trouser and shirt, and if needed, we 'go up' to a sport coat. In all the years I have never needed to wear a suit. I am looking to purchase (or have made) a few pairs of dress trousers with the stipulation that the material both qualifies for...

    Why loafers and suits are such a no-no?
