You know that the square toed shoe is out of style; however, what constitutes a square toed shoe? Aaron Marino of alpha m. shows two squared shoes (pilgrim shoe) and describes.
The issue arises when the shoe toe is squared off but is reduced from the widest part and the toe. This is not a squared toed shoe. Alpha then gives a test about square toed shoes. A safe bet is to stay away from any shape or style that is drastic: overly square, overly pointed, overly busy / decorated, and overly bulky. Pick shoes that are simple and classic to be timeless.
