Thistle, I wear some if my oxfords like a shootie and hem pants to fall over shoe. So that works best with certain pant hem width such slight boot cut ; occasionally a straight.
This is not the original Oxford craze look with rolled or cropped pants but I had trouble , despite loving oxfords for my feet, liking how they look on me with ankle pants. The key for me is to style this pant- shoe look with a more feminine top and jacket style. I can also use sheer knee- highs with some.
This is not everyone's cup of tea but I like it. A slimmer- fitting, slight Bootcut is a good pant style for me( not my only choice, but I try to keep a couple of versions on the go) and I don't always want to wear an ankle boot.
Some of my pairings are " planned serendipity" based on coming across a comfortable but refined Oxford and the right pants.
I think I am very particular about my feet& legs " look" in the final outfit and maybe that limits me. I know it when I see it!
I recently found a pair of PG shooties at Nordstrom Rack that I found work great with cropped pants, where my oxfords and loafers did not,
and so that has revived that whole option for me for fall. Something about the vamp, smooth fit and slight heel is less clunky, but still a good bit of shoe, so they balance my pear shape in slightly tapered ankle pants.
