Ledasdottir alludes to the dress/black tie/tux shoe for men. You rarely see these anymore, for good reason. That's a black high-gloss (usually patent leather) shoe with a very low vamp, plain toe, and a grosgrain bow. In other words what is often called, in the U.S., a Mary Jane pump. Few men nowadays have the nerve to wear them. I, now, possess and occasionally wear with black tie, a pair of these which do not have the bow. They aren't very comfortable; the toe part only covers your toes, leaving most of your foot showing and therefore they are a little hard to keep on. Also they are pointed in the front and therefore cramp your toes.
