Brogues are second in line after oxfords as formally stylish shoes go. Typically, brogues have the following characteristics: Low heels, the presence of toe caps, the presence of heel caps, the presence of lace panels the presence of Broguing or decorative perforations. It is hard to define brogues as they are increasingly becoming more diverse and versatile shapes. A common sub category of brogues are wingtips. The name is derived from the broguing on the shoe as it is the shape of wings starting from the middle of the toe box and ending near the arch of the shoe. It is worn at more social functions as it is quite a casual shoe.
