I really like the look and idea of going sock-less in a variety of contexts, but I'm always a bit wary. I've got sweaty man feet, ya know? It's easy with some boat shoes on the beach when I don't care, but I would love to rock it dressed up with oxfords as well. Anyone have some tips?

I ordered these last time from this UK website and love it.

I wear some brogues, old and worn in with a pair of jeans. They look solid when worn casually with dark blue jeans.
Try it, roll the bottom hem up, one turn, two turns, done.
And then forget about it all, the rolls, the shoes, no socks. Just go about your day.
P.S. These brogues also no longer have laces in them, I wear them laceless.

Do you dry clean your clothes? If so, ask the shopkeep if they have a preferred powder/insole to use for going sockless.
I don't like the no-show socks because I can still feel them even though I can't see them-- I like the feel of having bare feet tucked inside my casual shoes. I've been using a really comfortable isole that absorbs moisture and keeps odor in (works so far). $12 at Target.

I've found that with sockless shoes (like a pair of Sperrys or suede brogues), if you replace the insole with an aftermarket one, it gives you better cleaning options.
Since the insole is what usually smells bad, you can just take it out and wash/soak it by hand. A little baking soda or soapy water in the bare shoe and they're back to smelling good.
