Plain toe or a cap toe? Cap toe or plain toe?
The confusion is real and grave because it will define your personality.
If you go by the looks only, plain toe will give you a more formal look while cap toe boots are meant for a more decorative look, for example say business parties. But with plain toe you will get a variety of options to style in which won’t be possible with the cap toe boots.
Well, today in this article I am going to tell you which boot you should choose for which occasion and what are these styles actually.
Let’s read on…
What is a Cap toe?
The word cap toe is derived from the look that this type of toes offers. The extra piece of leather that is attached on the top of the toe box of the boots forms the shape of a cap. These types of toes are meant to style from rugged boots to dress boots.
They can easily be recognized by the stitch line across the upper of the toe box. The extra layer of leather that this type of toe uses is meant for that extra protection. But this style is more for decorative looks than very formal ones.
What is a Plain toe?
Plain toe style means that it will not have any ornamentation or any sort of additional covering on the toe area of the boots. They don’t have a medallion too. They can be supplemented for round toes as well.
When to Wear a Cap toe boot?
Cap toes are especially designed for day wear and are basically dress shoes. They go well with day suits and business wear. You can also wear them when you want to add that touch of sophistication to your casual dresses.
Though they can be used in formal dressing styles, yet you only have to stick to them while wearing something for daytime business. You cannot go traditional with them obviously but it can be worked out easily with casual fabrics like flannel and tweed.
When to Wear Plain toe boots?
The casual nature of plain toe boots makes them perfect for everyday wear. This style is an all-purpose wear which can go along with anything like casual button down to chinos to cardigan sweater to denim jackets and cords to jeans. Such is the versatility of these boots. You can even pair them up with long jackets to padded vests to leather jackets.
Before we say Good Bye:
So, to conclude we can tell that both the styles are unique to itself and it entirely depends on you what is your more preferable look.
If you are more of a business person, you can opt for the cap toe boots. And if are someone who loves to dress formally everyday even if with casual wears, you should choose the plain toe boots.
Down the line, plain toe will give you more options to style with just any clothing, until you are wearing them for strolling in the parks.
Also, if you consider the comfort, plain toe, being mostly round in shape, are more comfortable than the cap toe boots.
