    Ghillie brogues are not the best for dancing - the laces tend to finish up on the floor if things get too energetic. Plus they are usually outdoor shoes with fairly heavy soles. I agree with paulhenry though, black or brown brogues look very nice with the kilt and you can wear them with the dreaded p@nts too, something you can't with ghillies. I wear these for dancing and formal wear generally - as they are more comfortable and much easier to wear.

    The shoes that Phil is wearing are the ultimate dress shoe,but,for dress wear, black(not brown) brogues,well polished, will be fine,.I happen not to be a fan of ghillie brogues under any circumstances.
